UNDFTD New Balance 1500 Desert Storm

| May 12, 2010 | Comments (16)

To coincide with Armed Forces Day, the LA born Undefeated brand will release their latest collaboration with New Balance this Saturday, May 15th. UNDFTD has always been inspired by the military and sports, and the military inspiration is very obvious with the Undefeated New Balance 1500 “Desert Storm”. These NB 1500′s will be available for purchase May 15th at all Undefeated stores and web store.

The inspiration behind the New Balance Desert Storm 1500 is based upon military designs from the Gulf War. The light and dark brown panels with red and blue hits are colorways inspired from a Desert Storm operations patch. The premium suede fabrication of the shoe has been chosen to correspond with real army boots that were worn in the Gulf War. The chocolate chip camo, which is found on the shoe bed, interior lining, and shoe bag, is a specification to commemorate the design’s introduction in the Gulf War. 1500s feature embroidery detail on foxing and tongue of each shoe and collection call out on shoe insole.
