Been on the fence about trying these out? Consider this new colorway a sign to make moves. Peep some of the key features below:
- ABZORB midsole absorbs impact through a combination of cushioning and compression resistance
- Suede overlays in high-wear areas for added durability
- Soft rubber outsole for better flexibility and movement
- Design inspired by Tiago Lemos
Now available at skate shops worldwide and newbalance.com, this colorway is an instant classic, just like the black/gum. Honestly, I’m super curious to try these out. You spoke, they listened. New Balance Numeric strikes again.
