The New Balance WRPD Runner “Navy/Sea Salt” Adds Flavor to Sneaker Wardrobes
Okay, so the "Navy" portion might not actually be navy-colored—but that's fine.
Ever since New Balance introduced the WRPD Runner series in August 2023, they’ve introduced a string of new colorways in quick succession. Following the recent announcements of the upcoming “Magnet” and “Grey Matter” colorways, New Balance has confirmed the addition of the New Balance WRPD Runner “Navy/Sea Salt”.
This sneaker features a Sea Salt mesh base with New Balance’s “N” logos—as well as the heels—in grey. Navy leather overlays, meanwhile, are paired with white midsoles.
The minimalistic upper doesn’t include much in the way of panels or stitching—an aspect of the design that actually serves to elevate the silhouette’s overall look. Below the upper are pale yellow FuelCell pieces in the midsoles.
To be released in spring 2024, the New Balance WRPD Runner “Navy/Sea Salt” will be available on New Balance’s website and select retailers. A pair will cost US$150.
