CITYist

Detroit’s Burn Rubber Sneaker Boutique has joined with New Balance to release the 2nd part of the Workforce pack of sneakers, the White Collar MT580. The collection was inspired by the strength of the workforce in Detroit in spite on the decline of the auto industry there. They wanted to honor the blue and white collar workers in the city and their dedication. The Blue Collar style was released last month and on March 1st the White Collar style will be launched. The shoes come with a pinstripe shoe bag that invokes the pattern of a business suit.

The sneakers cost $149.95 and are available at select boutiques in addition to Burn Rubber, including Kith NYC, Undefeated and CNCPTS in Cambridge, MA.
