The New Balance CM1500 has been a popular choice when it comes to collaborations between New Balance and <Insert Your Euro Sneakershop Here>. The multi-layered design of the CM1500 (and most other NBs) make it quite easy to adorn with a plethora of colors. But check out this collaboration with Japan-based Beams and the Boston-based sneaker company; the Beams x New Balance CM1500 keeps it OG with the use of grey tones – similar to the trademark colourway of the New Balance 998 that was once considered reserved for geriatrics or those with orthopedic needs. As with most overseas New Balance collabs, these look to be tough to acquire in the states, so grab them directly from Beams.
