You know how sometimes a shoe will come with laces that are just slightly too small and they make you rethink everything you thought you knew about tying knots? This is one of those. But in a good way. Anyway, Four Pins-approved dad swag favorites, New Balance, came thru with the Size? exclusive in the fine shape of the MD1500 Deconstructed, arriving on Friday 31st in both black and white colorways, complete with a gum sole and cokeboy midsole. Because, you know, a solid block of the white is the only thing that can match gum when it comes to desirability. Running silhouettes are hot shit and this comes with Revlite tech, which is like getting a great hug off your dear ol' grandma, but for the bottoms of your feet. She's swaddling you in a blanket, telling you everything's gonna be okay, that the sole is probably wipe clean and that the tastefully legit instep detailing will definitely not get heavy with mud on your first run. These are great. Very clutch, in fact. On second thought, don't run in these. Fuck, I miss my gran.
