Coming in hot with two impeccable new colourways for the best-selling New Balance Numeric 480, New Balance have doubled down on the shoe's basketball origins, taking inspiration from two of the most legendary NBA teams for this new collection. The NB Numeric 480 is rapidly becoming one of the most hyped shoes on the market and the new 480 Eighties Pack is guaranteed to take things to a whole new level with its LA Lakers and Boston Celtics inspired colourways arriving just in time for the play offs.

Playing on this East Coast/West Coast split in one of the NBA's greatest rivalries, the 480 Eighties Pack introduces the New Balance Numeric 480 EST and PST, with the names referencing each team's timezone and the colourways based on their respective home and away kits.

Combining these legendary basketball aesthetics with top-tier skating performance, the New Balance Numeric 480 PST and EST still feature the same signature construction we all know and love with a FuelCell midsole for comfort and support alongside a reinforced toe-cap for maximum durability and even a new custom basketball graphic on the insole.

NEW BALANCE NUMERIC 480 EST

First up, we've got the New Balance Numeric 480 EST which pays homage to New Balance's hometown basketball team, the Boston Celtics, with a stylish Forest Green / White colourway.

Seeing as the Celtics are New Balance's home team of course they've opted to represent the team's home kit in this colourway with a suede upper in the Celtics signature green alongside a white sole and detailing.

With its premium pig suede upper, the New Balance Numeric 480 EST brings the well-loved performance of suede with even more durability and a lovely, smooth aesthetic, giving the shoe a seriously high-quality finish. If we had to pick a team from this collection we'd definitely have to go for the Boston Celtics given their Irish roots and this Forest Green / White colourway is an instant classic.

Alternatively, the New Balance Numeric 480 PST takes inspiration from the Celtics rivals on the opposite coast of America, the LA Lakers, with a clean White / Purple colourway.

Seeing as the Celtics are the home team, this naturally leaves the Lakers in their away kit with the New Balance Numeric 480 PST featuring a White and Purple upper with Gold accents for that unmistakable Lakers aesthetic.

Opting for a leather upper instead of suede, the New Balance Numeric 480 PST boasts longer-lasting durability while also being easier to keep clean - which is especially handy given the white colourway. While the Lakers don't benefit from Celtic heritage, this regal White, Purple and Gold colourway is fit for a king. Whichever team you support (or whether you're even into basketball), you can't deny that both the New Balance Numeric 480 PST and EST are both straight bangers!
