How can you get the best of both worlds combining the bold good looks of New Balance’s ‘Propaganda Pack’ with the tradition of excellent craftsmanship offered by their Made in the USA releases? This New Balance 998 strikes a satisfying balance, not officially a member of the aforementioned bred set, but echoing their signature look in rich pigskin crafted here in the good old USA. The M998RO is quite similar to the upcoming J.Crew edition, especially if you imagine blue swapped for black, but the biggest difference is that this RO colorway is available right now at NB retailers like Feature.
