I was starting to get a little tired of all the flashy colorways that have come my way, with regards to sneakers (seriously, neon green? Even a so-called hipster like myself would not wear that) but I would wear the New Balance Purple/Grey kicks.
Keeping to the great shape they have become known for, the New Balance Purple/Grey are switching it up. Offering a subtle, and classy take on the running shoe with its charcoal suede, and purple accents throughout.
