CDG works in collaboration with New Balance and this time around, the duo highlights the 580 sneaker model that is led by its minimal tonal palette. The simplistic shoe features two colorway palettes, starting with a white, black, and silver-grey tone that details the first shoe.
The second palette is made up of white, grey, and white for a slightly lighter tone. Both of the iterations are set to launch in Japan at DCG starting on May 19th. Across the uppers are a paneled layered design and it is perfect for lifestyle wearing in different environments. Branding can be seen along the medial side of the shoe in the classic N logo and at the tongue tab.
