At the beginning of December, we showed you the Pro-Keds Royal ?B-MAX4? that was inspired by Yokomo?s leading 4WD off-road radio-controlled car, the B-MAX4. In a similar form, we have spotted a New Balance 574 that is also inspired by a Japanese brand 4WD.

Specifically, this shoe pays tribute to mini 4WD which are small sized battery powered plastic model race car. These cars, which are seen below the shoe to the right, were designed by Japanese company Tamiya in 1982. As for the shoe, it possesses a rather eye-catching color scheme similar to one of the aforementioned cars. Orange patent leather makes up most of the midfoot area, while various yellow, white, black and blue details make up the rest of the shoe. Click here to view additional photos.
