Back-to-school season may not be the most exciting time, but a wardrobe update can help with the jitters of resuming classes. We’ve teamed up with New Balance to help you with this tall task (so you can focus on that summer reading list).
For more than a century, the Boston-based brand has been synonymous with quality footwear products, and the last four years have seen it bring this commitment to craftsmanship across old and new models like never before. Newer options like the CT302 and from the skate-ready Numeric line will also grab attention for their sleek designs and plethora of colors. New Balance Hoops is also disrupting hardwood floors everywhere with kicks inspired by Kawhi Leonard and others, if you’re looking to lead a student-athlete life.
Go ahead, take a study break and browse some of our favorite New Balance sneakers currently available here below. And if you’re looking for gear to accompany your new kicks, shop from hundreds of options on NewBalance.com.
The realm of lifestyle sneakers has a lot of roots embedded to the sport of tennis. While New Balance’s catalog is rife with court-inspired archival models, they’ve upped the ante in 2022 with a brand new women’s silhouette that combines sport sensibility with the picky demands of fashionistas today. The CT302 achieves that blend, with a stacked midsole and enlarged N logo to stay consistent with the brand’s Shifted category.
New Balance basketball is not the same. And through their bold designs and performance-driven innovation, they’ve achieved that unique identity through the signature models and in-line designs. Staying fresh on the court is important too, which is why Kawhi Leonard’s collaboration with brand-mate Joe Freshgoods is one of the best picks heading into the Back To School hooping sessions, while the TWO WXY V2 provides ample support on both ends of the court.
New Balance has continued to evolve since their founding in 1906, expanding their scope to cater to a wide range of sports. And in 2013, following numerous additions to the 99X series, the brand entered the skate shoe market with Numeric, a line-up endorsed by professional skateboarders the likes of Tiago Lemos, Brandon Westgate, and Jamie Foy. Today, New Balance Numeric spans a broad spectrum of silhouettes, from the 306 to the 1010, all of which are available right now on NewBalance.com.
