New Balance 1010 X Rone Release Party Photos
5/01/2023
Last week in Long Beach, New Balance threw a bash to kick off the new collab with Tiago’s 1010 and Tony Ferguson's Rone. Icons of the OG Girl crew, heavy hitters from the Numeric squad and more stars pulled up for the occasion. Scroll through.
All aboard! The night started out early as we boarded the party buses from NB HQ
Everyone has to get that LA story post when they get to town
The party has arrived!
Jake Darwen wasted no time getting straight for the eats
I’d say that’s a pretty good looking window
A timeless wall hanger
The men of the hour! Tony and Tiago enjoying their night
Jake Darwen had some photos on the wall
One of them even made its way onto a shirt
First party foul of the night, taco spillage on the white kicks
Design gurus Scott Johnston, Jeff Mikut and Nick Zegel
Look who crossed the pond! Charles Munro, Matlok Bennett-Jones, Tom Knox and Charlie Birch
Marina snapped up with Jeron, Tony and Tiago
Open bar? Don’t mind if I do
Charlie also doesn’t mind if he does
No chairs? No problem. Skaters will always find a seat
I thought Spencer and Justin were tall until Daniel Wheatley showed up
“Maybe we should start pushing switch mongo?”
“Let’s see if you can still back three when you’re in your late 40s”
Heavy crew of Scramble alumn! If you can’t name ‘em, that’s concerning
"Meza, you should make it out to Mardi Gras next year!"
Mardi Gras is French, right? Let’s ask Flo, Franck and Vince
Mellow scene inside...
…maybe because everybody was out back taking in that high-class ambiance
Chad and Scott must have planned this, right?
The Henrys! Is that six from the Scramble now?
Who’s keeping count on these?
“I'm keeping count!”
Last call on the tacos
Sports?! Who would be watching basketball at a skate party?
Of course, it's Trent, Jake and Jamie
A print for your wall? It could be yours!
They had that and more in the goody bags that were all around the event
Everybody loves Tom Knox
Can you imagine what it would be like to wrangle a crew like this?
These dudes can. Chad and Levi are masters at it
Damn, Europe is in the house tonight
Uh oh…
Sebastian and Charlie were feelin’ it
Few can work a picnic table like these two
Gotta get that story post!
Double vision
Wouldn’t be complete without the OG crew. Dimitry, Lee, Sam, Aaron, Tony, Jeron and Tim all made it
The guys that made it happen! Tyrone, Tiago, Tony and Seb. Great work all around
We ain’t done yet. Tiago’s gotta get his cake!
Wishing for more pop? Impossible!
Happy birthday, Tiago! Pretty solid way to end the night
And as quickly as we packed the place, the buses were back and empty again. Until next time, everyone!
