With New Balance’s month-long Grey Days campaign nearing its end, it’s time to look back and grade the output of footwear. For its established franchises like the New Balance 9060, the brand chose to go in a different route by relying primarily on a white base with the muted neutral acting more in a supporting role. Strong as it was, we can’t help but notice this new “Slate Grey” edition that may have not only struck a chord, but hold a note longer.

Arriving at New Balance retailers now, this new “Slate Grey” stuns with a multi-grey execution of the sport-inspired upper construction. The suede overlays, quarters, and mesh base all enact a different tone of the neutral, with just the right amount of contrast established by the statement Raincloud hue. There’s no pre-aged yellow nonsense here — just pure, unbridled grey on one of the best lifestyle shoes on the market.

Again, this New Balance 9060 is beginning to hit stores now, so keep your eyes peeled on our Where To Buy guide below to get yours. These are bound to hit NewBalance.com as well for $150.
