New Balance hadn’t issued a brogue-embellished sneaker in nearly five years, and overnight our expectations double with word of another Far East collaboration. INVINCIBLE and X-Large avoid direct confrontation as the former’s 1400s get to play the male lead opposite a forthcoming X-Girl x New Balance Womens Lux Knit Pom Beanie. They’re not officially connected, though one can’t help but notice the similarities in these two dark suede styles from Japanese imprints early this week. This X-Girl 574 sets itself apart with star-shaped punches and varsity-block text on the laces, and will arrive in May (further symmetry here with Mother’s Day, while INVINCIBLE’S hits in June for Father’s). Stick with Urlfreeze News for updates, but X-Girl’s collabs haven’t been easy to get in the States, so you’ll definitely want to see more below.
