New Balance's Tribute "Cumbrian" Pack Gets a Release Date
Paying homage to the storied Flimby factory’s homestead.
New Balance‘s UK manufacturing operations found its humble beginnings in 1982 in the quiet county of Cumbria in North West England. Home to the sneaker company’s storied Flimby factory, Cumbria has become a symbol of UK manufacturing quality and a constant source of inspiration for the New Balance design team throughout the years. Paying homage to said legacy, New Balance has unveiled a new footwear collection inspired by its Cumbrian roots. The upcoming pack consists of three classic models — the 1500, 770 and CT300 — featuring design references that draw from the Cumbrian flag’s green, blue and white color scheme. The New Balance Cumbria Pack will drop on June 3 at select New Balance stores.
In case you missed it, New Balance gave its 597 an all-leather rework.
