New Balance Unveils ’Morocco Tile’ Sneakers Inspired by Traditional Mosaics

Very bright colors have been borrowed from Moroccan mosaics. Between purple and navy blue, the contrast created from the combination of the white leather upper and the colors inspired by Moroccan zellige gives a very original effect to the sneakers.

This 997S edition, "Morocco Tile", according to Hypebeast.com, features a blue mesh and white leather upper, with a deep purple highlighted on several parts of the shoe, including the heel, tongue, and the "N" of the logo, as well as a navy blue line running through the sole.

This particular interest in Moroccan heritage products is not new. The diversity of the latter has always aroused the curiosity of both industrialists and artists in search of new and above all original inspiration.
