Matt Varga Nearly two years in, we can comfortably call the revival of the New Balance 997h Men S Black Low Casual Athletic Lifestyle a smashing success. Carving out a dominant lane in the tech runner world, the intrigue now rests in how the Boston brand can keep up the energy behind it, avoiding the “fall from grace” that silos like the Nike Dunk experienced after capturing pole position. Innovative color-blocking continues to be the answer for GR fare, exemplified again with this “Cream/Green/Burgundy” edition set to land early into 2025.
Breaking up the overlays into two sections is primarily how this shoe creates an arresting profile, leaving the topmost layers in the rear clad in deep tones of burgundy and light grey while the toe-box presents in nearly comprehensive off-white. Additionally, the underlying mesh foundation, a staple on all New Balance 997h Men S Black Low Casual Athletic Lifestyle releases, widens out dramatically to further set this apart from previous looks. This pair finishes with some pine green trim on the sock-liner and surrounding the midfoot N branding, adding a dash of seasonal appeal in the closing details.
As mentioned, this edition of the New Balance 997h Men S Black Low Casual Athletic Lifestyle is expected to hit shelves during Spring, retailing at the typical $155 figure.
