With the rising demand of Retro-inspired lifestyle classics from tried-and-true brands like New Balance, releases like this new CM997HWB in a quintessential NB-build deserve more attention. But New Balance hasn’t altered its formula one bit; ABZORB cushioning and hardened heel-cap have always been a standard for this mid-high level New Balance running sneaker. This new release should catch your eye, especially for those who missed out on the limited release of the CNCPTS x New Balance 999 ‘The Kennedy’; it’s got a similar nautical-themed colorway of navy/grey/red tones, and like the 999, offers supreme comfort. UpThereStore has these in stock so take a look at the extra shots below and look out for these at New Balance retailers near you.
