Coming off its recent collaboration with Stone Island, New Balance‘s Tokyo Design Studio has dreamt up another iteration of the FuelCell RC Elite V2. Here we have a closer look at the shoes in “Steel Blue” that just arrived on HBX.

Said to be inspired by the New Balance 1300JP running shoes that were first released in 1985, the latest styles feature a similar construction of steel blue mesh base with gray suede overlays and eggshell white leather panels along the collar. What characterizes the new sneakers are jagged overlays exposing the breathable 3D knit uppers adorned with New Balance motifs. Additional details include contrasting blue stitching, the lateral “N” logo, and the “tokyo design studio” text on the tongue tabs.

Other than an innovative appearance, the performance shoes come equipped with high technology such as the FuelCell cushioning and a full-length carbon fiber plate.

Priced at $244 USD, the New Balance Tokyo Design Studio RC Elite V2 “Steel Blue” is now available on HBX.
