Photobucket

El lanzamiento de la Undefeated x New Balance CM1500 “Operation Desert Storm” está muy próximo. Este proyecto colaborativo es ya histórico en el contexto del diseño y el calzado. Undefeated siempre ha sido una marca inspirada por el ejército y el deporte. En concreto, en este caso se han inspirado en la Guerra del Golfo, los paneles en marrón estñan inspirados en el parche de la operación Tormenta del Desierto y vienen realizadas en suede tal y como las botas del uniforme que lucían los soldados americanos en esa guerra. Por último los acentos en camuflaje desértico (en la plantilla y el forro), rojo y azul terminan de darle un toque muy especial a esta 15000. Inluye una bolsa para guardarlas. Saldrán el dia 15 de Mayo (día de las fuerzas armadas estadounidenses) pero si no quieres quedarte sin ellas puedes realizar ya el pre-pedido por teléfono o en cualquiera de nuestros emails de contacto (tienda@24kts.e.telefonica.net, shop24kts@hotmail.com)

The release of the upcoming Undefeated x New Balance CM1500 “Operation Desert Storm” is not long away. The New Balance Desert Storm is a collaborative project that brings historical context to footwear and design. Undefeated has always been a military and sport inspired brand with efforts to not only provide authenticity to projects, but to also inform the public of the often overlooked and understated aspects of design. The inspiration behind the 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 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. Undefeated’s main objective is to have authenticity direct the project, while instilling history into the design. There is much excitement with the Desert Storm 1500’s as it will be Undefeated’s first collaboration with New Balance US. Release on 15th May, US Army Day but you can preorder them now by the phone or by any of our contact emails (tienda@24kts.e.telefonica.net, shop24kts@hotmail.com).
