DV + NB Trail Shoe 2024Black
$$195
The District Vision + New Balance Hierro v8 Trail Running Shoe emphasizes hand-drawn, organic contours over geometric precision, creating a dynamic yet crafted aesthetic reminiscent of the early 2000s running shoe aesthetic.
The base print material is translucent ReGrind, a proprietary New Balance recycled compound sourced from car tires and running shoe soles, layered with 3D and rubberized prints for added depth and durability. Key details include a red dot beside the "N," nodding to the brand’s Japanese eyewear endeavors, and an oversized co-branded woven tongue label. A subtle halftone print enriches the bottom mesh layer.
The outsole employs Vibram EcoStep Natural technology. Colors are derived from naturally occurring substances: charcoal-based pigments (Carbo Ligni) for the Black design and a titanium dioxide/charcoal blend for the Bone option. The sole composition incorporates over 90% petroleum-free materials, highlighting an intentional focus on reducing environmental impact through advanced material science.
*Please note: We recommend sizing up a half size as the shoe runs small.
