With the 2008 Olympic Games currently taking place in Beijing, China, we are seeing a lot of Chinese themed shoes being released. China has been the spotlight of the sporting world and shoe companies are cashing in on that publicity. New Balance has used the Chinese theme to promote their twentieth anniversary of the M576 sneakers. We had a glimpse of these shoes several month back and now you get get them at Atmos.

While each of the shoes is unique in this release, all of the kicks feature bright colors and elaborate designs that are popular in the Chinese culture. You can even see references to Chinese dragons, which are especially important symbols during Chinese New Years celebrations. Via Hypebeast.

Head over to Overkill now to see these New Balance sneakers that have just been released. Featured are the New Balance M1300 and the New Balance M576. In the pictures, you will see three different shoes that are all available at Overkill.

Two M576s are featured – one featuring purple and the other featuring brown. Besides those main colors, there are various patterns and lines used to liven up the shoes. The M1300 version shown above features a turquoise and bright yellow color scheme. To add even more color, the shoe has flashy blue laces. I’m not a big fan of the 576, but the 1300 is pretty lively.
