New Balance 1954R “Dazzle Camo” Design
The “Dazzle Camo” treatment borrows the disruptive linework once painted on World War I ships to confuse enemy estimates of depth. Here it is applied in heavy doses across nearly all of the upper panels.
Multiple N logos are hidden inside the print. Black overlays on the top of the upper and a black midsole keep the hardware readable and stop the pattern from taking over the whole shoe.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Inspired the “Dazzle Camo” Pattern?
The linework comes from camouflage painted on World War I ships. Its jagged shapes were meant to make it hard for enemy vessels to judge depth.
Does the New Balance 1954R “Dazzle Camo” Have Branding in the Print?
Yes. Multiple N logos are injected into the camouflage pattern across the upper.
Is the 1954R a New New Balance Model?
It is the brand’s newest tech runner, a retro mash up built on a platform dating to 2010. Its earlier colorways were fairly standard, which makes this pair a bigger swing.
