The crew at SneakerFreaker, based in Australia, did an amazing job with Blaze of Glory collaboration last year, and the anticipation has been building with the news of New Balance & SnkrFrkr getting together a while back.

Finally, New Balance & SneakerFreaker has announced the global launch date for their collaboration, the New Balance 850 based around one of Australia’s most well-known national treasures, the kangaroo.

“Made with genuine Roo leather, suede pops and tangy lemon/lime inners, the New Balance 850 has never looked so fly” according to SneakerFreaker, and we can assure you that this is definitely one of the flyest New Balance kicks that we have seen at MAJOR!

For live in-person preview, you can visit our showroom at 1426 Wisconsin Ave. NW in Washington DC.

The sneakers will be available for purchase on December 5th at 11 a.m… Pre-orders over the phone will be available on a limited basis from December 3rd.  Available in US Men’s sizes from 9 through 12 (no 10, 10.5 & 11.5).

Rounding out our outstanding lineup of MAJOR Midnight Mayhem after Thanksgiving/Black Friday Kickoff is the Concepts x New Balance Freedom Trail Pack.

Concepts (Retailer in Boston – Shouts out to Frank The Butcher & Deon!) got together with New Balance to create a unique package, using the only finest premium material available.  They chose the 2 silhouettes, the luxurious and classic CM1500 model, and a newcomer to the program, CM875, which is a classic outdoor trail runner.

Attention to detail is incomparable on this super limited launch, and MAJOR is the exclusive destination in the DMV area to stock this great collection.

Available at Midnight on Black Friday… Be the first to cop them!

New Balance teamed up with Copenhagen, Denmark based retailer & apparel brand, Norse Projects, to create this very special limited edition M670 model.  As with other traditional M670 classic models, this sneaker is made of premium suede and mesh material with a unique outsole design, all made in England, as it proudly states on the tongue label.

Staying true to the heritage of New Balance, and using classic tones of Navy, Green, Teal, and Grey (3M), NB & NP have come up with the ultimate tribute to running shoes, which have become a staple of classic casual dressing today.  This gem of a collab is only available in 4 top retail stores in North America.

Japanese-designed New Balance MTG580 series (G stands for Gore-Tex) was a solid hit for us when New Balance first released the tonal Teal, Purple, and Yellow colorways earlier this year.  But the real treat is now here at MAJOR, with the release of The Gradient Series MTG580 in shocking Pink/Yellow and more conservative, Black/White.

These waterproof kicks are definitely what you want for Fall, or even now, as you can use all the protection from the flash floods and thunderstorms that we get in the area.  Style, protection, and exclusivity… What more can you ask for?
