As William J. Riley sat in the yard, little did he know what his idea of helping humans walk like chickens would eventually become. Riley originally founded New Balance to produce arch supports so that we humans could have a “the perfect balance” like that of the chicken.

This month New Balance is commemorating Riley’s original inspiration with the Chicken Run New Balance 1400 Collection. This series of three sneakers pay tribute to this original idea of his with a fading progression of a chicken transforming into a human from the toe cap to the side panel of the shoe.

Three different colorways were made for this set. All of which clearly represent New Balance’s commitment to quality as well as its employees. Assembled by the Super Team 33 crew, these sneakers are produced domestically in New England. The Chicken Run New Balance 1400’s are available this month at select New Balance retailers for $150. Plenty of detailed shots are posted after the jump.
