New Balance understands the significance of its drab grey sneakers, so much so that they coined “Grey Day” back in 2018. Since that date’s been established, the NB brand has been pushing the neutral tone continuously, and honestly few sneakers on the market can compete with a clean grey suede pair of dad shoes.
On May 21st, New Balance will add another to the mix as they present the modern racing-style XC-72 in the statement colors of Marblehead and Rain Cloud. Various shades of grey cover the entirety of the upper, with high contrast achieved by the differing tones on the suede toe overlay, leather base, large N logo, and the rubber sole and heel. A touch of crimson red or pink would give these a “Pigeon” look, wouldn’t they?
If you’re looking to add a new XC-72 to the mix, expect these on New Balance for $120 on May 21st.
In other New Balance news, the Joefreshgoods New Balance 9060 is expected to release very soon.
