New Balance has expanded upon the release of their modern, fresh looking 247 shoe with the classic colors of yesteryear. Now, the shoe will be updated in grey, white, navy and black, with the style of the brand’s chunkier additions.
The shoe itself features a single toebox, a molded TPU eyerow and collar. Further aesthetic designs are sprung sock constructions, a larger midsole and a medial TPU stability post. These callbacks are from the classic New Balance Rollbar technology.
It’s a brave choice; one that pays off as it strikes a perfect balance between old and new giving the shoe a fresh feel whilst remaining familiar.
