Unless you’re intimately involved with a dominatrix, or at a Criss Angel show or Batman, throwing more leather on anything isn’t going to spice it up…or so we thought. Taking a page from the Bruce Wayne handbook, New Balance has leatherized a pair of their iconic sneakers. The deluxe upgrade of the iconic M577 model includes a full black-on-black leather upper, Encap sole and the standard New Balance N. Same comfort and style you’re accustomed to, with just enough Batman thrown in to turn heads. It’s the shoe equivalent of showing up to a party with two girls in a Lamborghini – except for the fact that you can actually stomach the $200 price tag.
