Overview
New Balance reworks its classic running-heritage look here with futuristic styling, expanded stabilizers across the upper and wave lines on a molded midsole. The platform pairs ABZORB and SBS cushioning, and a breathable mesh upper and lace closure finish the low shape.
A bold midsole, a breathable upper and a recognizable heritage line are what this sneaker offers. The limits are a thin listing, with a title that is only the brand name, no size data, and a cushioning level that reads as minimal.
Who it's for
People who dress casually and want a breathable, low-profile lace-up with a strong midsole are the target, especially in spring and summer. Runners wanting a training shoe, and anyone who walks in the rain, should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Breathable mesh upper
- Molded midsole with wave lines
- ABZORB and SBS cushioning platforms
- Lace-up adjustable fit
- Not water resistant
- Cushioning level listed as minimal
- Title field reads only the brand name
- Sizing details not listed
Performance notes
A molded midsole carries the cushioning platforms named in the description, and expanded stabilizers across the upper add structure to the low shape. The mesh breathes in warm weather but does little against rain. Minimal cushioning in the data field points to a firm, low-profile feel, so long runs are not the intent.
