New Balance Shoes

(yes you read right...new balance shoes LOL)

This is way off topic from anything I've seen on this forum before but I figured I'd give it a try anyway...does anyone on this forum that is currently reading this know where to get those old school design New Balance shoes that come in the wild color combonations (like yellow/blue, red/white, purple/white, yellow/white, etc. etc...same or similar design to the ones you see the guys in Initial D wear)? Like the ones sold in China, Japan, and Taiwan? I don't have a pic and don't really know how else to describe them but...I've seen them before sold in China but I haven't found any place online that sells them (could be just missing some place). I would most grateful to anyone that could help me out here. Thanks!

I've only seen an episode or two of initial d and I really don't recall the shoes they wore, but a simple search for new balance shoes came up with this.

Here's the google query page.

Hope this helps.

yeah that's the exact style but those are actually different then the ones I was thinking of. The ones I mean are color combos that are not sold in the retail American market by NB (at least I haven't seen them). Like royal blue/bright racing yellow, lavender kinda purple/white, kakhi/white, black/yellow, pink/white, etc. (the first color being the prominent one) very different from the color combos on the page you provided, sessiz (but thanx for the effort anyways! ). About the only way I could get them is find someone that imports them (duh hehe)...LOL knowing my luck they probably aren't even real NB's which is why you don't see'em here in America. Oh well...again any and all help is appreciated.
