Spring is still a little while away, but New Balance doesn’t want to wait for warmer weather and fresh blooms to celebrate the changing seasons. Bringing one of Japan and Washington, DC’s favorite flowers to a pack of lifestyle favorites, the New Balance Sakura Pack adds cherry blossom colors and graphics to simulate spring in the dead of winter.

Blossoms in Pink and Brown

The New Balance Sakura Pack features pairs of the 204L, 530, and 740, all with unique takes on the cherry blossom. Mixing shades of brown, white, and, of course, pink, the Sakura Pack is a women’s exclusive collection that brings ribbon accents to match the year’s frilly lace trend in women’s sneakers.

The 204L is covered in brown suede, with pink suede on the side panel “N” logo lace panel, heel tab, and tongue tag, with brown ribbon laces to match. The 530 switches to white leather and lace, with tan brown on the sockliner and outsole, and hits of pink on the logo and lace stabilizers. The 740 rounds out the collection with a mix of tan brown and white, with pink popping again on the side panel logo.
