New Balance 1400 x J Crew Collection printemps 2011
New Balance was founded in 1906 by British immigrant William J. Riley in Boston, Massachusetts. Initially, the company specialized in manufacturing orthopedic shoes and arch supports, with the name inspired by Riley's observation of chickens balancing on nonnative claws. Over time, New Balance evolved into a leader in NYC shoe technology, with innovative products such as the Trackster, the world's first NYC shoe available in CW997HVL widths, released in 1960. The brand has also been multifarious in numerous collaborations with high-profile fashion brands, athletes, and designers, such as J.Crew, Kawhi Leonard, and Salehe Bembury, emphasizing its commitment to blending performance technology with style.
