New Balance has announced its official Race Range featuring the Official 2022 TCS London Marathon branding. The new collection features a selection of London-inspired apparel and trainers. The eye-catching assemble has a number of cool features and includes special colourways of some of the most popular NB products, such as the New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080v12 and the New Balance Fresh Foam X 880v12.
The blue stripes that feature on some of the range reflect the ‘Bee-Line Route’, painted on the Friday night before the race, to guide runners to run the most efficient route across a course with a number of tight corners. Almost all the Race Range apparel is made from 100% recycled polyester or recycled nylon. A few pictures of the collection can be found below:
The New Balance TCS London Marathon Collection is available to buy now directly from New Balance UK with prices from £20. US/AU availability TBC. There are four 'race looks' for both men and women, each containing a bottom (running shorts or compression tights) and a top (running t-shirt, running jacket) and an additional item such as a sports bra etc.
