20 years the wall in Berlin was taken down and marked an important moment in history and was the beginning of the end of the cold war. To celebrate the occasion, Overkill got together with New Balance on a triple pack – the Berlin Wall Pack 2009.
The pack consists of three colorways of the New Balance 577. Lots of details, such as the photo prints on the insole, remind of the important occasion 20 years ago. The shoe comes in red reminding us of the flag of the UdSSR, black because of the Berlin bear mascot and blue to remind us of the US flag. On top of that you will find lots of surprises when opening the shoe box. The Berlin Wall Pack is Made in the UK and each sneaker is limited to 577 pairs worldwide.
The release of the New Balance x Overkill Berlin Wall Pack takes place on December 16th at Overkill Berlin and on top the store also worked with the project Write The Wall for the occasion. Of course there will also be a release event, more on that soon.
Now take a detailed look at the 577’s of the Berlin Wall Pack 2009 by Overkill and New Balance after the jump.

what a joke!
These are such an uncreative exploitation of a momentous event in human history… and i definitely feel uneasy about commemorating it with a pair of shoes, where the proceeds go straight to someone’s pockets… I guess its supporting german industry?
