We present you the New Balance Horse Hair Pack. The pack consists of New Balance 574’s and 575’s, both coming with premium leather, horse hair and matching leather laces. Overall the pack looks very solid and the horse hair gives it a more premium look, without going over the top. We also like how they kept it tonal on this one. Via Streething.
The pack will be released some time in September.

Japanese brands Deluxe and Cause recently collaborated on a winter boot. Cause is well known for its comfort and quality on the Japanese market, thus Deluxe could not have chosen a better partner.
The collaboration boot comes in black and beige and features a mixed material upper – leather, suede and short horse hair around the ankle. Since all three materials come in the same color, the boot still keeps a classic look, while being different from what is mostly around from other brand.
These are now available at Dedue. After the jump the other colorway.

The latest release by Visvim is the SKYNYRD RING MOCCASIN /NOME series. Probably the most unique one to come out this season, the series sports uppers made up of horse hair in different unicolors and animal patterns.
Overall the series consists of 4 styles. Not everybody will be able to pull these off, therefore we also do not expect to see these a lot on the street. Pics via Star-J.
After the jump more detailed pictures.

We just reported about some exciting Nike Court Forces for women and here comes a pack also entirely dedicated to women – the Horse Pack. For a long time women were not really targeted with limited and special releases, but now Nike seems to have understood that there is a market for them.
The Nike “Horse” Pack consists of two Blazer Hi’s and two Dunks. The Dunks feature chocolate and noir horsehair as well as a version with a creamier mane. We were never really big fans of the fur and horse hair sneakers for men, but this pack for women is hot. The Dunks a little more subtle and the Blazer Hi’s with fat stripes and patterns a little more loud. Pics via Sneaker Freaker.
Check out the entire pack after the jump.

Atmos now received the Black Hairy Leather Collection by Clarks. The collection consists of three shoes – Natalie, Wallabee and Desert Boots. All three feature a black horse hair upper that makes them look subtle but not at the same time. Definitely a nice alternative for this Fall/Winter season.
