Sneakerheads on both sides of the pond have something toast to with the just-announced release of the Made in England 576, a collaboration from British heritage brand Grenson and New Balance five years in the making.

The benchmade kicks are part sneaker, part dress shoe and 100% sold out until the second release, slated for January 23rd.

The design incorporates Grenson’s finest Italian grade-A calf-skin leather into New Balance’s classic 576 pattern, with Grenson’s in-house craftsmen finishing things off with their “signature burnishing and broguing details” to produce a street-casual shoe that can moonlight with even the most refined getups.

Top hat sold separately.
