The shoes come in two colorways with a large A.R.C logo on the tongue. This is the first collaboration from A.R.C that makes it to retail.

Yes you are correct Sportie LA and Concepts both did crappy projects and ARC was supposed to get down, I didn’t say the first just finally a US retailer came with some heat. Additionally those shoes were made in China, these are all made in US.
first US x NB collab i remember was in 1996
Just For Feet x NB 1600
ultra rare and came with a JFF shoe bag.
do you’re research…..Sportie LA and Concepts had a NB made for them. ARC was supposed to be a part of it but the factory couldn’t get the all 3M material shoe to work right.
These are the most thought out New Balance I’ve seen in a minute, and finally a US retailer making a New Balance.
beautiful!
