The latest set of New Balance 791S sneakers take inspiration from militant garb to create a stylishly modern and utilitarian print ideal for daily wear. The sneakers are part of the athletic brand's collaboration with retail company, J. Crew. The sneakers are decked out in suede with a modern mesh fabric that brings the army-inspired shoe into a much more fashionable silhouette.
The sneakers opt for a much more laid back aesthetic complete with a thick sole, wider shape and chunky laces. The shoe is paired with an all-over cream and olive green colorway that is pulled from army uniforms soldiers often adorn. The mix of suede and mesh materials provides a contrasting texture that makes elements such as the stitching and logo.
