Both parts working in tandem to add dynamism to its muted aesthetic, particularly on the collar, the &#8220;N&#8221; on the profiles, as well as the fore of the midsoles. A final flourish comes by way of the outsoles underfoot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s no firm release date yet but they&#8217;re expected to arrive within the year. Find them on New Balance&#8217;s brick-and-click stores for US$160 come D-Day, whenever that may be.
