Franck Muller and New Balance Drop Third Installment of "MS327" Collection
Referencing the Color Dreams and Vanguard Yachting watches.
The world of watches and sneakers collide once more as New Balance releases its third collaborative drop with Franck Muller.
While the earlier releases channeled Franck Muller’s “Casablanca” model in earth tones, this third collection celebrates the vivid byzantine numerals of the Color Dreams Collection and the modern sporty-blue of the Vanguard Yachting Collection.
The Color Dreams version sees a plethora of colors like violet, red, yellow, baby blue, green, orange, navy, and brown across the uppers where color-blocked panels are mixed in with a lateral “N” logo made up of multicolored numerals and a medial with larger jumbled numbers. The Vanguard Yachting colorway is a lot tamer as it incorporates just two main colors — navy and white — in its premium leather construction. This was done to give the sneaker a luxurious feel reminiscent of something you would wear on a yacht or lavish vacation. Both pairs come with an ornate Franck Muller lace ornament.
This third drop was released over the weekend at the Franck Muller Japan eBoutique for a price of ¥22,000 JPY (approximately $175 USD).
