New Balance 1700 “Chocolate”

Thanks to the wider-than-ever sneakerhead audience and a renewed appreciation for the timeless nature of premium quality, New Balance has enjoyed an upsurge in both its reputation and dope new styles.  Not only are we getting more themes and collabos than ever before, but the selection of models available represents a wider range than at any time in the brand’s history.  This fresh New Balance CM1700 sticks with the time-tested all-over suede approach and opts for the letterman-like double-N embroidery that makes these stand out even though the overall package is quite subtle.  Will they ever make it to US retailers?  Stick with Sneaker News to find out if the latest colorway of this Japanese favorite makes it stateside, and check out some additional photos below in the meantime.  Photos: mita sneakers
