While New Balance has recently reintroduced the world to the New Balance 580 silhouette, the Asian market has long held the model in high regard. This admiration dates back to the early days of the 580s when retailers like mita sneakers played a pivotal role in elevating the model through exclusive releases and collaborations. Recently, mita sneakers collaborated on the model with the Masterpiece Sound x Hombe Niño x mita sneakers x New Balance 580 GTX. Now, they are teaming up with Tokyo-based sneaker care brand MARQUEE PLAYER for another exciting Gore-Tex-infused iteration of the New Balance 580.
The MARQUEE PLAYER × mita sneakers × New Balance 580 GTX showcases a harmonious blend of blue and grey hues. The darker blue mudguard contrasts with the lighter blue shades on the vamp and midfoot panels, creating a dynamic look. One of the standout features is the glow-in-the-dark splatter paint on the midfoot, adding a unique twist. Branding from mita sneakers and MARQUEE PLAYER is split between the two pairs, while the tongue features care instructions in a font reminiscent of MARQUEE PLAYER's products. Gore-Tex branding on the lateral heel highlights the sneaker's weather-resistant capabilities. The look is completed with a grey and navy foam midsole and a black Vibram rubber outsole.
The MARQUEE PLAYER x mita sneakers x New Balance 580 GTX is set to release on May 25, 2024, exclusively via mita sneakers online and in-store. Keep it locked to the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
