Levi's(R) and New Balance Collaborate to Unveil New Icons for Fall/Winter
 
Levi's(R) and New Balance are two brands built on solid history and tradition. At the same time, they are also two brands that are always looking to the future. This spring, Levi's(R) and New Balance teamed up to unveil their first collaboration. Now, for Fall/Winter 2020, the two brands are teaming up again to create the next generation of icons.
This new collection incorporates iconic elements from both Levi's(R) and New Balance, blending classic and contemporary styles. First up is the New Balance(R) 327, a modern reimagining of '70s style. Next comes the classic Levi's(R) Trucker Jacket, available in two men's and one women's styles with reversible padding. Stylish collaborative graphic t-shirts are also included.
The Levi's(R) x New Balance 327 (a LIFESTYLE shoe inspired by three iconic New Balance running shoes from the 1970s: the 320, 355, and Super Comp) combines retro 1970s styling with a modern asymmetrical design. The 327 is available in navy, indigo, and white, or navy, white, and gray for men, and gray, sky blue, and white for women. It features a '70s-style waffle sole and a modern, oversized New Balance "N" on the side. It also features a traditional New Balance tongue tag with the classic blue and white "NB" logo, as well as a red Levi's(R) tab sewn onto the side. The reversible padded trucker jacket features a classic denim "Levi's(R)" side and a reconstructed quilted "New Balance" side. The Levi's(R) side features three tones of indigo or three tones of gray for men, and a patchwork of sky blue, gray, and white denim for women. The New Balance side features a white background with a navy collar and cuffs for men, or a gray background with white sleeves for women, while the white background features gray sleeves and a sky blue collar. All three tracker jackets feature a large gray-toned New Balance logo on the underside of the quilted side, sewn with 3M reflective stitching to match the reflectivity of New Balance running sneakers.
Photographer, stylist, and creative director Cam Hicks photographed the campaign visuals, which explore the duality and Yin-Yang concept of reversible footwear and apparel panels.
Finally, the collection also includes a special-edition Levi's(R) x New Balance graphic t-shirt featuring a collage of advertisements for both the classic Levi's(R) and the original New Balance 320 running shoe. This is to celebrate the collaboration between two iconic brands, and expresses their pride in their history and traditions, while also looking to the future and moving forward.
