New Balance has created an ultra-exclusive limited edition version of the 576 model in order to pay tribute to high fashion designer Michalsky of Berlin. Michalsky’s admirable motto has always been “Real Clothes for Real People.” The special shoe stands out in its bold luxury purple colorway. The shoe uses a wide variety of materials including leather, patent leather, fleece and suede ranging in different shades of violet and purple. These materials really aid in showcasing the upper and the purple suede brings out the intended look of the soft, grey fleece as well as the smooth patent leather. Only two pairs have been created for the models to wear in the Berlin fashion show. Via sneakerbOb.
