Singer Jack Harlow may be dominating the stage as of late, but he’s also ready to take on the design world. Along with New Balance, the singer is heading into a new journey that has taken him to create a new indoor soccer-inspired sneaker. In recent seasons, the indoor soccer shoe has become the base of many new releases, with brands like Adidas and Nike taking to their archives for inspiration from some of their iconic soccer sneakers. Along with the trend, this latest sneaker takes inspiration from Harlow’s time as a high school soccer player in his native Louisville, Kentucky. While the only confirmation of the trend comes from Harlow’s social media, there’s no doubt that its release will make major waves among fans and beyond.

For his first collaboration with New Balance, singer Jack Harlow took to social media to tease his collaborative indoor soccer sneaker that features plenty of hometown references. Donning a white leather upper with a quilted detailing on the toe box, this clean sneaker has plenty of Harlow’s personal story embedded into the design. Pops of burgundy and gold accents pay homage to Harlow’s high school team colors, while his high school jersey “80” has been added onto the design’s tongue. Inside the sneaker is a map of Louisville, where Harlow grew up. Completing the design is a gum rubber outsole, which is traditional to the indoor shoe, while a white midsole adds comfort. Although Harlow has already shared teasers of the shoe on social media, little is known about its official release. However, the sneaker will land via New Balance platforms sometime in 2025.
