New Balance’s ongoing “Age of Exploration” theme continues this summer with this freshly released New Balance 998. We’ve seen the New Balance 1400 don the premium constructed theme through the use of luxurious suede and leather panels. Here a dark teal suede and sports mesh combination beckons to the great outdoors and the unexplored forests of years past.
The NB 998 is as coveted a retro running model as any out there thanks to high concept collaborations with some of the world’s best sneaker boutiques. This general release fully showcases the capabilities of New Balance’s in-house colorists with a nearly monochromatic dark green upper, a red tongue lining, and clean ‘N’ branding throughout to match the Abzorb midsole unit. The ‘Made In The USA’ pair is available today from select spots like Premier for $180 USD.
