Last Thursday we attended the launch of the SBTG x MITA x New Balance MRT580 Launching which happened at the Crossover Concept Store in Sunway Pyramid. Special guest appearance by none other than Mr. Mark Ong aka Mr. Sabotage himself which was accompanied by Mrs. Sabotage.
There was already a pretty long queue by the time we got there with more than 40 people queuing up. From what we heard, the first in line was already queuing up at 10am the day before, which would mean he would have queued up for more than 24 hours!
The shoes were not the only main attraction of the day, as Mr. Sabotage sorta stole some of the limelight. Tired sneakerheads and fans of SBTG were all smiles as Mr. Sabotage signed cards, shoe boxes and even took pictures with them. Definitely a very good feeling to meet one of the designer of the shoes, which makes the long hours of queuing all the more worth while.
The shoe was sold out within the hour which left some of the back end of the queue empty handed and wanting, which made some of them cop the SBTG ID-ed version of the New Balance 580 Revlite pair. Check out the pictures below to see how the ID version looks like and to also see what else went down during the launch.
