New Balance's Made in USA line has been a longstanding testament to the brand's commitment to craftsmanship and quality. With Teddy Santis at the helm, the line has experienced a renaissance, witnessing a surge in popularity among sneakerheads and fashion-forward crowds alike. Recently, the buzz around Season 4 has been palpable, especially with teasers of new iterations gracing New Balance stores, and the New Balance 998 is one silhouette that's capturing significant attention. This pair is also expected to launch alongside the Sepia Atlantic Blue rendition of the 998.
Diverging from its previous Olive Incense mix, seen on another 998 and a 990v4, this upcoming New Balance 998 is a harmonious blend of brown and green. Craftsmanship takes center stage with the shoe's plush pigskin suede upper, predominantly bathed in rich brown tones. Contrasting this is the vibrant green that embellishes the signature "N" logo, mesh underlays, and the suede around the collar. The luxurious golden suede panels on the vamp and heel tab add a touch of opulence to the design. The branding details are subtle and sophisticated, with the Made in USA logo proudly displayed on the tongue and the familiar New Balance stamp on the heel. Ensuring the shoe isn't just a treat for the eyes, the creamy white Abzorb-cushioned midsole and a durable black rubber outsole promise optimum comfort.
The New Balance 998 Made in USA Brown Green will release December 28, 2023, through New Balance and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $210.
