New Balance Brings Out The 997R In “Navy” And “Arctic Gray”

New Balance Brings Out The 997R In “Navy” And “Arctic Gray”

Despite being brought back a number of ways over the course of the last few years, the New Balance 997 never quite caught on. But that could very well change in 2023, as the brand is providing the sneaker the same treatment as the 2002R and 1906R.

First leaked back in May of this year, the newly-renamed New Balance 997R is now finally making its way to select retailers. And in addition to a classic gray colorway, the silhouette is dressing up in “Navy” and “Arctic Gray.” As is typical of the brand, touches of gray are applied throughout the shoe’s trims and accents, painting both leather as well as the reflective finish of the “N” logo. The laces and midsole opt for white and cream, respectively, while the rest of the upper alternates between the two aforementioned blues.

Enjoy a closer look at this 997R right here. If you’d like to add a pair to your rotation, they’re currently available now at the select retailers listed below.

In other news, a first look at the Air Jordan 6 Low PSG was revealed earlier this week.
