Hip celebrities are often photographed wearing their Nike or Air Jordan sneakers of choice, the younger generation in particular, but a few A-listers have been spotted in various New Balance shoes including Kanye West who was reported to be wearing the limited edition United Arrows x New Balance 997.5 last month. However, it’s not just Kanye West that rocks New Balance over other brands, so do Hayden Christensen, Eric Dane and Seth Rogen. Hayden Christensen was caught by the paparazzi on several occasions sporting a vintage running sneaker, the U420BG. Eric Dane wore the popular 991s as he walks down the streets hand in hand with his girlfriend and Seth Rogen broke out the M1400LLV from the Luggage Collection as he posed for a picture. New Balance’s image as just a running brand is long behind them. They have accomplished this by incorporating several of their favorites styles into collaborations with brands that have caught the eyes of celebrities like Seth Rogen and Kanye West.
