The collection features graphics inspired by these five bridges, and the overall design reflects the positivity and connection that is synonymous with the world’s largest marathon.” To launch the collection #newbalance worked with It’s Showtime NYC! dancers, a program of non-profit Dancing in the Streets, the largest street dance company in New York City. It’s Showtime NYC! celebrates New York City street culture and offers performance and professional development opportunities to street and subway dancers as a legal alternative to dancing in subway cars. The video, featured across New Balance’s Instagram and Twitter handles, will go live Friday, September 13^th with the It’s Showtime NYC! dancers performing in the New York City Subway to an original song composed by drummer Alex Goffic. The popular and collectable wind- and water-resistant NYC Marathon Windcheater Jacket returns in 2019 in five new colors: Pigment/Navy and Chambray for men, Overcast Grey and Kite Purple for women and Team Red for men and women. The iconic jacket harkens back to the very first #newbalance apparel collection from 1978, updated for today’s athlete. Reflective taping across the chest and back pays homage to the original jacket and provides added visibility for low-light conditions. Additionally, #fashion meets performance in the Limited Edition Capsule Collection that is inspired by the rainbow reflections of iridescent puddles on the pavement beneath a runner’s feet; This comes to life through an iridescent reflective featured on the entire capsule collection.
