Light Tonal Lifestyle Footwear

BEAMS Launches an Exclusive New Balance 237 Sneaker Model

— September 27, 2022 — Lifestyle
Japanese fashion imprint BEAMS is no stranger to New Balance and now launches an exclusive 237 sneaker model for the season. It is detailed with light tones, creating a white and ivory colorway that references its previous launch back in 2021 together. The shoe offers a retro design theme, celebrating looks from the 70s and 80s specifically.

The construction features a blend of premium suede and meshes throughout the upper. White details the base foundation of the upper and ivory makes its way onto the mudguard, supporting overlays, heel counter, and the large N logo on the side of the shoe. An off-white is applied to add a subtle touch of contrast at the tongue, EVA-infused midsole, and heel tab.
