Eric Kot x AAAA x New Balance H574

New for 2012, Hong Kong-based creative polymath Eric Kot and AAAA (Asia Acts Against AIDS) have partnered with New Balance on an iteration of the H574. A hiking-inspired sneaker as easy on the eyes as it is on one’s conscience, the silhouette features a burnt orange suede build that rests upon an off-white ENCAP midsole and gum rubber outsole. A black lining, lace detail and logo, meanwhile, add a bit of color contrast to the shoe’s clean makeup. The shoes are available now at select New Balance retailers including Kasina, with a portion of the proceeds going towards the ongoing fight against AIDS.
