Jasmine Tang New Balance’s Tokyo Design Studio received much praise with the release of the R_C1300 last year. After following up the debut with several more colorways and collaborations, the Japan-based collective references the model in the MS1300 “Green Logo” pack dropping this week.
The MS1300 assumes the silhouette of the R_C1300 (as displayed on the tongue label) and arrives in three lifestyle-ready tonal options—Grey, Black, and White. Each pair consists of a mesh base and a white “N” logo on the lateral side that has been unexpectedly outlined with green. The trio also uses a soft beige to color the leather heel tab and the striped overlay at the heel. While the Grey and Black pairs see suede overlays, the White style opts for leather overlays instead. A white ENCAP and ABZORB-cushioned midsole introduces black Vibram rubber underfoot to deliver a modern look and comfort to a heritage-style sneaker.
Take a closer look at the MS1300 below, which will be available at atmos and New Balance JP on June 11th. A stateside release on newbalance.com is likely to happen, so stay tuned for more details.
