ZHU (aka Steven Zhu) hinted at a collaboration with Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker a couple months back, and now “ My Life” has arrived.

Celebrating National Parks, two new colorways for New Balance’s 998s has been created in collaboration with J Crew. Inspired by Crater Lake and Death Valley (with the former in shades of blue and the latter, browns and caramel), the sneakers have been produced in limited quantities. Also $10 from the sale of each pair will go to National Parks Foundation.
Embellished with pieces crafted by the very talented ceramicist Ben Medansky, KOIO’s newest collaborative sneakers are sophisticated and a little playful. The white leather Capri style shoes are made of a speckled calf leather upper and buttery soft inner, with hand-painted edges and a bright blue outsole.
