Sometimes you just want a sneaker that's not too basic but not too flashy. A sneaker that keeps it nice, clean, versatile, and wearable. A sneaker that's got a nice backstory and plenty of character. Oh, and a sneaker that isn't too expensive, either. If that sounds like a sneaker you're looking for, you better check out the brand new New Balance 1000 Grey Black.
To new school sneakerheads, the 1000 may seem like a fresh silhouette. It was only released in 2024, right? Well, not quite. Because OGs will know that the 1000 actually debuted back in 1999, and it was slightly reworked just in time for its 25th birthday. This pair doesn't stray too far from the original design. The base is made from technical mesh for breathability, and it's overlaid by wavy black leather across the lacing system and sidewalls. Speaking of which, you'll find a bold, rubberized "N" logo here, too.
