New Balance x Rukus 480 (Mallard Duck)

The New Balance Numeric skate line is collaborating with Louisiana-based boutique Rukus for the striking 480 “Mallard Duck” edition, a design that pays direct homage to the local culture and the deep-rooted tradition of duck hunting in the region known as the “Sportsman’s Paradise.” This release transforms the classic skate silhouette into a highly expressive tribute, utilizing a color palette that mirrors the beautiful plumage of the mallard duck itself.
