The New Balance “Shifted” Store Opens in Singapore on November 26

New Balance has set up the Shifted store in Singapore, opening on November 26. Here’s everything you need to know about it.

New Balance unveils its latest “Shifted” store, which will be open in Singapore at Bugis Junction from November 26 this year to January 9, 2022. As its name suggests, the store will put retro-futuristic sneakers like the XC-72, 57/40, 237 and 327 series front and center. The goal is to go beyond the “dad-shoe” silhouettes that New Balance has become synonymous with, and have people explore other sleeker options inspired by classic models.

The space is inspired by scientific progress and technology, which is reflected in the designs of their retro-futuristic sneakers. The entire space is filled with clean lines paired with futuristic furnishings.

Part of the store is a studio space where printmaking and other workshops will be led by collaborating artists. Learnt the tips and tricks on how to create designs that are uniquely yours using techniques like screen printing and more.
