New Balance fans near and far will certainly have mixed emotions about this new SD574 sandal. It’s not something that new as other companies have produced similar-ish products such as clogposities, Superstar Clog’s etc. However, the impact may remain minimal due to it being a .jp release.

We had a chance to view what Futura Lab’s has got cooked up, and for the FL enthusiast, I don’t think you will walk away disappointed. Included in this collection are many staple items, new raw indigo/black denim could be considered a focal point in the collection. There are many renditions of the “Futura Box Logo” as well that adorn various colors of hoodies. The signature Futura Pointman can seen on the back pocket of the denim, as well as a nylon button-up coach jacket. Conversely, Futura’s double helix logo is seen on a hoody and a zip up nylon coach jacket. Rounding off this collection are mesh trucker hats, and two very interesting items. We posted the FLOM towel a few weeks ago, and now you can match those up with some slippers. As well, the best is left for last in the form of a Luchador mask. Start checking your local FL joints soon!
