Never one to shy away from a liberal design ethos, Japanese sneaker boutique atmos has been the benefactor of numerous collaborations over the years including many with Japanese-favorite New Balance. Despite a shift away from brighter styles over the past few seasons, atmos keeps things well… decidedly atmos with these upcoming M576 Holograms. With an upper done up in iridescent/holographic black patent leather, the whole shoe features many different colors with elements such as the logo, tongue tag, lace holes and midsole all done in different colors. The liner and insole also features a rainbow treatment with a rarely seen stylized New Balance logo on the heels. Available for pre-order with a release date set for September 11th.
