NEW BALANCE x SBTG x LIMITED EDT. MS327TG: URBAN ISLANDER
Singapore, an island city-state in the maritime of Southeast Asia and home to 5.7 million people. Out of those 5.7 million lies 1 person who could make this New Balance project what it is; Mark Ong aka Sabotage. SBTG and the team from Limited EDT. (a Singapore based boutique) joined forces to bring you the 'Urban Islander' New Balance 327 sneaker and 900 sandal.
The 327 is one of the newest models from NB in 2020 and is the silhouette chosen for this shoe. This 327 makes a ground-breaking statement by dividing textures and printed materials split down the middle. Exterior sides represent urban living and the interior sides have graphics representing island culture. Hints of luminescent pink on the liner + on the extra laces give these a splash of color sure to catch anyone's eye. Lastly, SBTG and Limited EDT. are embossed on the black suede heel caps to pay homage to their efforts in the creation of this shoe and lay on top of a gum sole.
This is my first 327 and my honest opinion is that they're in the top tier when it comes to comfort for my low arch. So you're probably asking yourself, "I thought you only bought 99x?" well, I'm humbled to share that these were gifted to me from @madebynb and then chosen by SBTG and NB.
This is the 2nd pair I've had seeded in my 15+ years as a collector, and I'm humbled, speechless and excited all in one. To be noticed and appreciated internationally before nationally makes me appreciate the community that much more and the friendship I've built with SBTG over the years is something I'm grateful for. Thank you my friend for this awesome gift. It has a permanent spot in my collection.
