Beginning back in 2013, District Vision started out as a performance eyewear company that has since evolved into a running brand with a wellness angle. With mental health in mind, the District Vision<\/a> x New Balance<\/a><\/strong> collection hopes to bring awareness to the importance of internal wellbeing. The series features two of the New Balance FuelCell RC Elite v2<\/strong> that are accompanied by a matching apparel collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The campaign is led by a variety of athletes and professionals all akin to the New Balance family. Each member of the campaign offers their own micro-course, making for a total of five courses led by rapper\/actor GaTa, pro skater Alex Olson, Olympic and New Balance runners Emily Sisson and Brenda Martinez, running coach Mike Spino, and District Vision co-founder Max Vallot. Each course is priced at $10 and is completely virtual. When you purchase the course, you get access to a video from your selected host that discusses how running and fitness have helped their mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are thrilled about the opportunity to work with a heritage running brand, like New Balance, on a collaboration that goes beyond just product,\u201d Vallot says. \u201cIt is our hope that consumers will gain a deeper understanding of what it truly means to be a \u2018mindful athlete\u2019 and learn how running can be used as one tool in their mental wellbeing journey.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both options have a knit upper paired with a carbon fiber plate and FuelCell cushion midsole for maximum energy return. The insole of the sneaker is marked with a red peace sign. The lateral side of the sneaker features a co-branded badge that reads \u201cDistrict Vision New Balance Center For Peace.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
