New Balance 575 “Rawhide”
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Aug 21, 2008 Don’t get it twisted, we love the Staple “Pigeon” New Balance 575, but this sneaker doesn’t need a collab with a respected designer to hold its own. Though the New Balance 575 has many pieces and panels highlighted through contrasting colors on many models, New Balance gave the shoe a slimmed down look with a predominantly black colorway focusing more on the high grade materials than popping colors. A rich rawhide leather covers most of the upper with a side panel of black faux-horse hair (calm down Peta). Pics from Sneaker Freaker. |

number of sneakers is really like age. It has a numerical value, but it only means what you make of it. I honestly don’t know how many shoes I have, but what matters to me is that the pair I have on my feet reflect how I feel for that day.
About the Commodore 64 some more, I actually played Skate Or Die on that system first which was so funny that they made an SB for it. The game played so much better on a joystick with one button than the NES game pad

I’d put Matt way over 100 pair. but that Commodore 64 comment took me back. I’m surprised there hasn’t been a Commodore 64 SB yet!
anyhow, as far as the shoe.. I’m a big NB fan, but horsehair? the rawhide looks very nice tho..

that’s a solid lineup kid. At age 13 I was still obsessed with hacking my Commodore 64 to play Star Wars games made for MS Dos.
Much respect for keeping an eye out for multiple brands too.
