"The relationships we have with our Studio Project artists are what fuel these authentic designs," said Tom DeLonge, Co-Founder of Macbeth. "Over the past few months, we've worked collaboratively with The Maine, The Gaslight Anthem and Sleeping with Sirens to develop awesome new styles that represent each band and celebrate our collective love for music."

These three Studio Projects showcase Macbeth's authentic music heritage and continue to redefine the shoe category, featuring all vegan materials and unique designs. The three exclusive styles will feature fashionable designs and graphics inspired directly by the music and created by the following bands:


-- The Maine, a five-piece American rock band from Tempe, AZ, created a
sneaker design inspired by their anthem song and fourth full-length
album, "Forever Halloween." Incorporating lyrics and signature black and
white insole imagery, The Maine has committed that all royalties from
the shoe will be donated to suicide prevention organization Music Saved
My Life Project, through Hope for the Day.
-- American punk rock band, The Gaslight Anthem, of New Brunswick, NJ,
designed an original photo collage insole with behind-the-scenes shots
from life on the road touring. Aligning with the band and creating a
tour-inspired shoe design is a seamless fit as the band prepares to hit
the road in September and October, before touring the globe later this
year with the release of their new album hitting stores in August.
-- As loyal fans of the brand and one of the top up-and-coming bands in
their genre, Sleeping with Sirens crafted a sneaker that combines the
classic Macbeth "Eliot" shoe with logo designs and a band photo insole,
with the added distinct touch of hidden lyrics for fans to discover.
These new Macbeth Studio Projects will include a variety of shoe designs with prices ranging from $54.99 to $64.99. Fans can stay up-to-date on the latest Macbeth news by following the brand on Facebook (facebook.com/MacbethGlobal), Instagram (@MacbethFootwear) and Twitter (@MacbethFootwear).
