Boston-born label New Balance returns with its latest version of the 996. Boasting the model's original design, pigskin suede and mesh inform the uppers in a grey colourway while dashes of navy and cream can be found on the midsole, laces and the bold 'N' logo. This may be a vintage trainer but the ENCAP technology in the midsole provides cushioning enhancing comfort. To finish, a durable rubber outsole offers tack grip in each step.
