When the Berlin Wall came down, David Hasselhoff was on hand to celebrate the occasion. Be thankful that he won’t be on hand to welcome this Overkill x New Balance pack that celebrates the 20 year anniversary of the historic moment. Don’t let the simple makeup of these three pairs fool you, there is a lot of history behind them. The red pair’s inspiration comes from the USSR flag and the “Red” Russian influence, while the Black represents the Berlin bear mascot and blue for the United States’ flag and influence. The insoles are all printed with different iconic images from the era in black and white. Oddly enough these bare the British flag on their tongues, as they were constructed at New Balance’s UK factory. The pack will release on December 16th at Overkill Berlin, with only 577 of each pair available in all. |
