A certified outfit boost, if you will.We can thank Tokyo shoe store Billy's for the new "Black Coffee" New Balances. The brand did its thing with this pair, dressing the model in an elegant (and exclusive) tonal colorway and equally tasteful materials. The uppers feature suede, leather, and mesh, all bathed in the dark brown color scheme.Billy's 204L sneakers also come with two sets of laces: a brown pair for a full-on monochromatic look and turquoise laces for a satisfying contrasting pop. Either way, the shoes are still perfectly "brewed."Your Highsnobiety privacy settings have blocked this Instagram post.Although barista-worthy now, the 204Ls keep much of their original look.
