New Balance dropping another high quality retro runner in a clean and stylish colorway isn’t exactly news. It’s just something you’ve come to expect from the only sneaker brand still manufacturing some of their models in the USA. Speaking of being made in America, this latest edition of the 997 seems to carry a certain patriotic light thanks to its color palette in red, white, and blue tones. The classic runner goes for a predominantly blue upper, actually, sporting a blend of dark navy suede with a shade of lighter blue for the Modern toe box and leather details on the tongue and ankle. Flint grey is also found mixing in with the red and white vernacular throughout. Add yet another solid pair of New Balances to your collection by grabbing these 997s now from finer sneaker shops like Premier.
