A few weeks back the good folks at New Balance invited me to a launch party for their Custom 547 Made in America program. They also gave me a chance to design my own pair. I’d been looking to pick up a pair of New Balances for a while and jumped at this opportunity.
I went with a pretty simple set of colors, black and dark grey with a touch of orange. I used the black because with winter coming up I didn’t want to have to worry about the suede get really dirty right away. Although I tried to keep the colors pretty neutral I couldn’t stop myself from throwing in the orange, which is arguable the best color offered for these shoes. I’m really excited to start wearing these, and I probably won’t take them off for a couple months.
