The New Balance 997 is Tactile and Textured

We’ve already seen the in pebbled leather and metal N logo iterations , but European-based ‘heads now have the opportunity to own this upgraded sneak.

Made mostly from pebbled leather, the tonal presentation is rather understated. The stamped tongue branding keeps it low-key, and so do the nubuck accents – leaving all attention for the polished-edge metal N logo.

They’re available now from SNS. Don’t baulk at the $319 pricetag though – they’re worth every dollar.
