Taken from STREETHING:

†This Friday, Leftfoot Entrepot will be holding a midnight launch for the New Balance 576 China Mask pack. Leading up to launch time, New Balance Singapore and Leftfoot will be throwing a party with a sample shoe showcase, an opportunity to design your own mask, as well as a chance to win all four kicks from the China Mask pack. DJ Rough and DJ Ritz will be providing the beats for the night, whilst Jim Bean have been kind enough to spare a few hundred bottles of their pre-mixed whisky and coke. Did we mention that the party is open to all? Details up on the flyer - see you all there.

Also, check out the New Balance 576 China Mask giveaway we’re running.

TAKEN FROM SOLE OBSESSION.org:

Here’s another Sole Obsession scoop!

Yes boys and girls, no need to rub your eyes in disbelief and do a double take, you didn’t see it wrong. These are not the mad coveted, sneaker riot causing, sell mine on ebay for US$1,500 Pigeon Dunks of years past.

They are even better!!!!!!

And you know what…

They are coming to a store near you! Yes, you….you here in our tiny island of Singapore!

RELEASE DATE: WEDNESDAY, 6 AUGUST 2008
STORES: LEFTFOOT + LE VAULT

WE MUST HIGHLIGHT THAT THESE ARE AVAILABLE IN EXTREMELY LIMITED NUMBERS…AND WE DO MEAN EXTREME IN THE UTTER MOST SENSE OF THE WORD!

This info came out of the blue…no warning and tiresome repeated photos over the span of a year. This was what sneaker drops used to be like my friends! Nostalgia induced sneaker launch hype at it’s finest.

Get….your…queue….on

TAKEN FROM SOLE OBSESSION.org:

We are indebted to the lovely gents at the New Balance Factory in Flimby for knocking together this unbelievable, 1 of 1, pair of 991’s during Sole Obsession’s visit to the legendary Cumbria-based factory. In anticipation of the 2009 New Balance range, which is lead by the historic 99x series of running shoes, we have decided to pay tribute to two much anticipated shoes that are due for release next year. In view of the 99x series of sneakers for 2009, we chose the 991 model to work on, applying colours closely associated to the original 850 colourway that is also being retro-ed in early 2009.

Full croc uppers complemented with a colour splash of turquoise and pink nubuck highlights. The use of materials lend a premium quality to the entire shoe, giving it an overall subtle look from far with basic white and black uppers, but upon closer inspection reveals the lux nature of the croc embossed leathers.
