The New Balance classic runner brand has created quality kicks for a long time. The rich heritage of quality and versatility keep the New Balance 990 series relevant and respected within the sneaker streets. We have always gravitated towards silhouettes that can perfectly marry the past and the present. With summer creeping up on us with a quickness, this New Balance 998 caught our attention. Who doesn't love a vibrant color pop to dress up or down?

The New Balance Made in US 998 is back with retro vibes and premium materials. Constructed with a pig suede and leather upper, the colorblocking is what speaks to us the most. The toe box rocks a vibrant citrus orange hue, while the white mid section adds contrast to the brightness. Grey detailing hits the heel as the look comes together on the NB signature ABZORB cushioning at the midsole. Think of fruit inspired, and enjoy the flavors below.

Is this a pair that you would easily flex during these warmer months? We could see this pair move through the seasons in a variety of sneakHER styles. You can SHOP THE SNEAKS below for $200 USD (quality is key).
