A limited-edition New Balance 480 built around the New York yellow cab.
The glossy yellow overlays are finished to look like a battered taxi, with printed scuffs, scratches and patchy orange colour as part of the design. They sit over black-and-yellow dot mesh, with black-and-yellow checker trim on the N logo, toe and heel. A printed city-block graphic wraps the heel, and “OFF DUTY” tags on the laces nod to the cab’s roof light. White and black midsole, black outsole with a translucent forefoot showing a yellow centre line. Black laces.
Wax & Waffle Evaluation Grade: Great — 8/10
Upper: Cleaned by material, then finished with a protectant suited to each one. The scuffed, worn-in look is the design, not wear.
Foxing and soles: Midsoles and outsoles cleaned thoroughly. Plenty of tread left.
Interior: Lining and insoles cleaned, sanitised and deodorised.
Laces: Cleaned and refitted.
Flaws: Light creasing across the toes. Shown in photos.
Size: UK 9 / EU 43. Go by the label size — see our Size Guide, or message us before you buy.
Style code: MRE480TX
