Cassette recently gave us a chance to preview the upcoming Fall/Winter 2007 line. This collection prides itself on themes drawn from up north in Alaska. Alaska in a way is comparable to solitude, and the last footprint of modern day civilization. As well Alaska evokes several different emotions for us, most prominently one’s battle against the elements.
For this Fall/Winter line up, Cassette have taken to the use of old age tested and true fabrics such as British Millerain wax cotton, a fabric that has proved its water repellency since the 1800s. As well, Cassette have renewed their dedication to 100% Merino Wool due to its properties as one of the finest wools available. Although on the surface, Cassette products may feel as though they are simply clean, details unearthed give you that complexity in design regarding fit and internal construction every time you put on your garment.
July 20th will see the debut of the latest Super 33 Collection designed by the European branch of New Balance. Former Super Team 33 themes included tropical fish and plaid/stingray. This pack was created with Fanzines in mind, a staple amongst European subculture. A Fanzine can be simply described as a non-professional publication by a group who share a common interest with their audience. Designers of this collection attuned it to New Balance’s credo to making shoes in that much like the commitment, hard work and dedication exhibited by early Fanzine creators, New Balance follows that same route with their handmade and pride ladened sneakers.
The Fanzine Collection is based on the iconic 1994 released, 1400 model. The upper is comprised of full grain leather with detailed prints. The leather will be characteristically New Balance, of the highest quality for this top of the line range. The shoes itself have strong visually ties to the amateur magazines they represent, dots on the vamp and the midsole represent the period key as seen on old typewriters while colors reflect the most popular colors chosen for these magazines. Often red or blue was the basis for black font for the most pop. The portion of the clear midsole reflects various different languages which in essence is a testament to the global diversity of Fanzines.
This pack releases July 20th, 2007 at 33 of the best New Balance retailers worldwide at the price of $200 USD.
