Stance Socks and New Balance have combined forces to present a two-shoe collaboration this summer, featuring the classic 997 and the new 1978. Inspired by their opposite-coast roots, the 997 takes inspiration from Boston’s traditional brick buildings and brownstone architecture, while the 1978 reflects the sand and ocean of San Clemente, California. Each built with premium Made in USA quality, the two models features pigskin suede uppers and come complete with matching Stance socks with stripes and multicolored speckles.
Dubbed the “First of All” pack, this will actually be the first in an ongoing series of collabs from Stance and New Balance throughout the year. The collection releases June 10th ($240 for 997 kit and $180 for 1978 kit) in limited quantities at select retailers globally, as well as NewBalance.com and Stance.com.
