New Balance 1400 - Chicken Run

When William J. Riley first started the New Balance company, he used the chicken’s of his yard as the inspiration of what was to come. It has been said that chicken have perfect balance. With that said, his philosophy lead to the design of the 1400.

Pictured above are two new 1400’s who both feature a running man pattern, suede, leather, 3M highlights and gum soles. Like many of the New Balances that have been released, these are truly classy and clean.

The mixture of buttery suede and the contrasting stitching really make these two models stand out. In addition, a third Yellow and Black color-way is also included in the series. Via Sneaker Freaker.
