New Balance dropped two new colorways of the Fresh Foam X More Trail with District Vision in celebration of the spirit of the journey.
The collaborative effort aims to marry District Vision’s mindfulness-inspired approach to design and New Balance’s technical application, making for harmonious footwear silhouettes. The collaboration centers around the idea that setting out on a physical journey and searching for the path to inner peace may be the same.
Both collaborative Fresh Foam X More Trail trail runners feature engineered mesh uppers crafted in neutral earth tones that mimic the look of dirt and stone, providing a casual look that is suitable both on and off the trail. Retailing for $180, the sneaker includes Haptic print overlays featuring New Balance’s ‘N’ logo on each side. This same detail is seen again at the toe tips, heel counters, and eyelets.
The stacked Fresh Foam X dual-hardness midsole gives the shoe lots of lift, while the trail-ready Vibram outsole provides enhanced traction anywhere you roam. Other details include original, co-branded, woven tongue tags that display a scenic outdoors-inspired graphic, District Vision logos on the insoles and the overlays at the heel counter, Vibram outsoles fitted with Vibram Traction Lugs, designed for traction on both loose and sandy surfaces and custom laces. The footwear is packaged in a custom box.
District Vision makes tools for mindful athletes, including sports eyewear and apparel. Based in Los Angeles, the company was founded by Tom Daly and Max Vallot in 2016 and remains 100% independent. Through the Center for Inner Peace, our mission is to make the world of sports more mindful.
The New Balance x District Vision Fresh Foam X More Trail will be available exclusively via DistrictVision.com starting Dec. 4 and globally via NewBalance.com beginning Dec. 11. Suggested retail pricing is $175.
