Though it’s not as mainstream as other new models like the 327, the New Balance 57/40 has managed to carve out quite a cult following, thanks in part to collaborations with Staud, Bricks & Wood, size?, and Joshua Vides. Now it looks to another collaborative partner in GORE-TEX to ready the silhouette for Fall wear — a follow-up to the recently-revealed CORDURA-clad colorway.
Here, New Balance has clad the upper layer in brown GORE-TEX Brand fabrications, and in case you didn’t know, they’ve printed it with the brandmark in repeat. It’s met by tonal suede overlays of black suede before returning to brown tints at the N motif underlays, liners, laces, and midsoles. Black returns at the outsole and insole to complete the design.
