New Balance is seriously milking the hybrid-shoe moment with its cow-print moccasin. And that's obviously a good thing.

The 1890A is a three-way cross between a classic moccasin, a technical running sneaker, and a dairy cow.

Up top, the 1890A wears a textured faux-fur cow-print pattern with cream suede paneling, pucker-toe stitching, and rope-like laces.

These fixings round out the sneaker-moccasin's unstructured, relaxed vibe that looks perfectly out of place atop the shoe's segmented rubber outsole that's fused with New Balance's proprietary Stability Web technology, which provides stability at the midfoot.

Animal-printed moccasins blessed with a talent for the track? Talk about a holy cow.

Now, cow print has really been having its way within the style space as of late, so it's not that surprising to see New Balance, the king of weird little shoes, jump on this herd-happy trend. Who does weird shoes like NB?

Such has happened before with the Miu Miu (Moo Moo?) inspired 204L or the cattle-licious 610. Why not add a moccasin to the mix?

Where leopard, cheetah, and snakeskin dominated the animal-print style circuit for a while, cow print has been slowly creeping up the ranks as a go-to print for coats, pants, and sneakers galore. The world is finally recognizing bovine excellence for the utterly delightful enhancement it is.
