Offspring x New Balance 576 “Masters of the Universe”
Posted by Nick Engvall | Oct 6, 2008 Celebrating the opening of their new online store, Offspring has collaborated once again with New Balance. The Offspring x New Balance M576 Masters of The Universe Pack is the latest collaboration. You know everybody out there was watching He-Man battle Skeletor when you were a kid. Now the battle can continue in the form of sneakers.
The New Balance M576 is a perfect silhouette for collaborations, and we’ve seen a lot in this, it’s 20th year anniversary. Most recently from Atmos, with the “Hologram”. The Masters of The Universe Pack has me wondering who is a fan of the Skeletor 576 and who is a fan of the He-Man 576? For me it’s an easy, choice. He-Man’s got the better of Skeletor in this battle for Castle Grayskull. This release from Offspring is available now for about $140. Via Hypebeast. |

The ‘Skeletors’ look like an Easter release. Man, Offspring & NB REALLY dropped the ball on these.
‘E’ for Effort, ‘F’ for Execution.
Easy pass…Too bad, too.

Skeletor is the purple ones, right?
Oct 7, 2008 at 11:19 am
Nope…

im very disappointed
with such a great concept to work with they executed poorly
Oct 7, 2008 at 7:09 am
NICE CONCEPT BUT THEY NEED TO WORK ON THE LOOK!

I like the NB 574’s better… Skeletor version is ok. If I was going to do a cartoon theme sneaker, I would be all over “Street Sharks”!

Nice, if only b/c I hadn’t thought about masters of the universe in about 10 years. Thanks for the memories new balance. Too bad the kicks are not my style at all.
Oct 6, 2008 at 7:26 pm
should have done a darker, more sinister skeletor version. imho
Oct 6, 2008 at 6:31 pm
i dont see the concept in the sneaks…they just look like colors with no real or distinguishing reference to Masters of the Universe…Skeletor still

Oops, I mispelled “fresh” on #5. My bad.

I’m gettin tired of cartoon themed sneakers for adults. Even the kid’s Spiderman buddies at Payless seems like a breath of frest air. But I guess these are ok since they don’t have any goofy cartoon characters on em.

Oct 6, 2008 at 5:10 pm
Not sure about this concept but “masters of the universe” sure brings back memories…I swear there is still a battle cat (minus cool accessories) laying around my moms house.
