Running shoe and apparel company New Balance has teamed up with bicycle maker Tokyobike to introduce a sneaker capsule for cyclists. The New Balance C-Series keeps those pedal pushers in mind by upgrading a running silhouette with a few necessary changes.
The model assumes the shape of a simple running shoe with a sleek design and neoprene sockliner. The sneaker also gets a flash of 3M on the laces and back heel. Finally, the outsole boasts supportive traction for maximum grip on the pedals. For an added bonus, the tied laces can be tucked into the top of the tongue so that they don’t get caught in the crank.
The four colorway drop is expected to hit select retailers on Jan. 22. If you’re on the hunt, U.K. retailer Size? will have them in stock for $135.
