Neighborhood is a Tokyo streetwear label with a long-running interest in Americana, and the paisley bandana is about as direct a reference to that as a print gets. Here it covers the whole Night Navy textile upper rather than appearing as a panel, so the pattern runs continuously around the shoe and the base colour shows through only where the paisley thins out.
Suede is the second material and it is kept tonal, used on the forefoot overlay, the Three Stripes and the Trefoil-branded heel patch, which gives those areas a matte nap against the printed textile without introducing another colour. Underneath, the Boost midsole runs in two tones with the usual inserts embedded in its sidewall, and the forward insert is stamped with Neighborhood branding, the one place the collaborator signs the shoe in text. It released on November 28, 2022 at $160, priced above the standard knit pairs of that year.
