Colorful Bar Shoes

The New Balance Pub Pack Was Designed for Drinking

New Balance has covered my needs for good beer and awesome shoes with their New Balance Pub Pack. The Pub Pack gets its name from the three English pubs that inspired the shoes design: the Kings Head, the Red Lion and the Royal Oak.

Each shoe comes with a beer towel and mat. Check out the gallery above for some shots of these super cool kicks. The only thing the New Balance Pub Pack is missing is an actual pack of beer. We can dream.
