New Balance x Hanon M576RWY Made in England 576 Mens Rare LE

Description: The first ever hanon shop x New Balance SMU (Special Make Up) was originally designed and released in 2004, with each pair limited to 196 pairs, but has also seen a vault release a few years later in 2007 along with some strange stories of some of these pairs popping up in outlets, and other places, but we’ll get to that later. Anyway, the hanon shop team reworked one of their favourite New Balance models, the classic 576, and they designed the upper with a mix of suede, full grain leather, air flow mesh, contrasting white saddle, and that traditional and noticeably familiar gold ‘N’. The first two pairs released for this collaboration were the 576RWY (red) and the 576BWY (blue), with the 576GWY (lime green) coming a little later as a third colourway to the original two. There’s been many rumours surrounding the green colourway but here’s a quote taken from a Highsnobiety article around that time – “Initially 3 colourways were designed but due to some difficulty meeting factory minimums, one unfortunately had to go. Reluctantly the green was dropped and only the navy and red were manufactured. However New Balance Japan liked the style so much they took up the production of the green colourway and the shoe was released as a special edition in the Far East. Upon its launch, sneaker heads across the globe quickly picked up on the 3rd model, and although never an official hanon release – was out there. The secret colourway!” So in 2007, hanon shop announced a release called ‘The Vault’, which included left over pairs and a short run of the green model from the allocated release, meaning that all three were essentially released as a pack, albeit three years later.
