Jovani Hernandez Since its highly-anticipated debut, the New Balance R_C1300 has enjoyed a much quieter life. Yet, that hasn’t deterred the modernized silhouette from dressing up in compelling colorways, the latest indulging in “Midnight Magenta.”
As has become synonymous with New Balance, grey sets the stage for the much more vibrant hue, taking over the mesh base and accompanying overlays. Heel panels indulge in the same muted tone, but sport a glossy finish. Pigskin suede throughout the upper ostensibly borrow the tonal color scheme of recent New Balance 992 releases; laces follow suit, while layered “N” logos on the profiles boast two shades of grey. Underfoot, the silhouette’s most tweaked feature from the original 1300 forgoes any purplish flair in favor of a tried-and-tested composition.
Details of an official NewBalance.com launch are still unknown, but this R_C1300 is now available at select retailers stateside.
