During Paris Fashion Week, LA brand Basketcase showed off a special-edition pair of the New Balance 204L. The grey pony hair look was a F&F exclusive, but now they are teasing their general release pairs of the silhouette, coming soon.
This Summer, New Balance introduced a brand new silhouette to their catalog, the 204L. The model combines the classic NB aesthetic with the trend of super slim, small sneakers through its barely-there rubber midsole. The model made its debut through a collaboration with Kith this month, along with a Paris Fashion Week appearance from AURALEE. The sneaker made its in-line debut this week with a “Mushroom” color scheme, with more in-line styles on the way soon.
In another Paris Fashion Week preview, LA brand Basketcase showed off their take on the 204L in their showroom. Dressed in grey pony hair, the pair is a friends & family exclusive, though they stated that a general release is on the way soon. Now, the Basketcase team has teased what these pairs for the public might look like. Showing off three samples, each one features a different mix of materials. First up, a pony hair style in black and white adds glossy patent leather to the toe box. The second pair comes entirely in black, featuring what appears to be a suede build with a pattern throughout the underlay. Finally, the remaining pair comes in a classic NB mesh and synthetic styling, dressed in white with metallic silver accents.
BASKETCASE X NEW BALANCE 204L RELEASE INFORMATION
Los Angeles-based Basketcase has yet to formally announce their public release of the New Balance 204L. However, they stated during Paris Fashion Week that the project would arrive later in 2025. Teasing three colorways this week, it’s unclear if they are just samples or if all three styles will be available to the general public.
