New Balance x Raheem Sterling FURON v7 “Route To Success”

Inspired by the sacrifices Raheem Sterling made on his journey to the top, New Balance has released a new signature edition FURON v7 “Route to Success.” We are getting serious 80s vibes from this design, who remembers the tv show Save By the Bell? Behind the vibrant design lies a story of hard work and commitment.

The pattern used takes inspiration from the nostalgic fabric pattern found on English buses during Raheem’s younger days. Back then Raheem had to journey across three buses daily to get from his home nestled in the shadow of Wembley to his club’s training grounds near Heathrow Airport, leaving mid-afternoon and returning home late at night. The design recollects those bus rides and Raheem’s desire and commitment to make it as a footballer.

This is also the first new look we have seen on the seventh generation FURON. Boasting a Hypoknit upper with mesh lining, plus off-set lacing with a cored-out canopy for lockdown and increased strike zone, the FURON V7 delivers impressive support and comfort.
