Following their 2013 'Tassie Devil' collaboration.
Sneaker Freaker continues their partnership with New Balance for another collaborative effort dubbed, the Sneaker Freaker x New Balance 997.5 'Tassie Tiger.'
The Tassie Tiger is proudly named after the native Australian marsupial. Tragically, this unique antipodean canine-esque creature has been considered extinct since the 1930s, when the last known Tiger died at Hobart Zoo. Unconfirmed sightings have persisted over the years and there are many amateur cryptozoologists who claim the Tassie Tiger is still alive in remote bushland areas.
This updated 997.5 silhouette features carved from a unique shade of ‘terracotta’ suede, which has been boldly embellished with salt and pepper speckle, apricot pops, 3M charcoal stripes and the blackest suede in the animal kingdom. Triangular forefoot fangs add carnivorous bite, while padded tongues are an elegant enhancement to the standard 997.5 model.
Look for this Sneaker Freaker x New Balance 997.5 'Tassie Tiger' to arrive July 15th at the Sneaker Freaker online store, while also including an in-store release with special Friends-and-Family packaging.
