New Balance never fails to nail the neutral look with their copius spread of greys and navys, but New England’s biggest sneaker brand doesn’t dabble quite as much in the earthy part of the ‘blank’ spectrum. There does, though, seem to be an abnormal concentration of brown leather releases on the New Balance M576, a model that dropped last spring in an almost identical colorway with less white, and again at the end of the year with a leather toe and ankle. These new M576BPMs get back to the original mesh-ventilated toe, which along with its leather upper shows off the premium construction you can expect from NB’s ‘Made in England’ drops. The fantastic Flimby Factory does it again, and you can grab these at select NB purveyors like 43einhalb.
