A couple of Japanese streetwear brands have applied Timberland-leaning ‘wheat’ suedes to New Balance classics in recent years, but the best of this rugged category might be coming up courtesy of NB’s New England factories. The New Balance 1400 ‘Made in USA’ is a shoe that excels in a just about any color you’d like to use on this simple suede build, and it just so happens that this golden brown edition is both supremely versatile and reflective of the shift from hot summer days to autumn cool. Have a closer look at more photos after the jump, let us know how this all-suede style compares to the more breathable mesh-inlaid designs and stick with Sneaker News for release info. via mita sneakers
