New Balance has always been a bit of an anomaly in the sneakerhead space. Once derided as dad shoes for mowing the lawn, the pendulum of popularity’s swing back to paternal style brought the Boston brand to prominence, and NB hasn’t let that grip go since. Now, the plain grey shades that made New Balance famous are rolled out for an annual holiday marked on every shoe obsessive's calendar.
This year, New Balance is pulling out all the stops for the May celebration, adding 12 tonal grey silhouettes to the collection spanning the lifestyle, running, skateboarding, and tennis lines. Beyond just grey, NB adds silver, olive green, and white accents throughout the pack.
