Salehe Bembury continues to demonstrate his exceptional design prowess with the upcoming release of the New Balance 1500, a shoe that highlights his unique aesthetic vision. Following his bold collaborations with brands like Crocs and Puma, Bembury’s partnership with New Balance has yielded multiple standout pieces. The new 1500 features a muted color palette beginning with a light grey base combined with sandy outer layers, further complemented by accents of yellow, olive, orange, and purple. These colors reflect Bembury’s signature style, which often draws from nature and urban environments.
Originally anticipated to see a different silhouette first, sneaker enthusiasts have instead been treated to this early release of the 1500 Made in UK. The shoe is slated for release on February 6, 2025, starting on his Spunge website before becoming available through broader New Balance retail channels. With an impressive price point of $275, this latest model promises to be another hit for fans and collectors alike. Stay tuned for more updates as the release date approaches!
