Perforated High-Top Leather Sneakers

New Balance Delivers Two New 650 Sneaker Tonal Colorways

— September 14, 2022 — Lifestyle
New Balance launches two new tonal options to join its roster with the latest 650 sneaker models that are optioned in either white and red or blue and white. This rounds out the summer season as the simplistic looks are reminiscent of a collegiate theme.

The upper is made from white leather materials and then contrasted by the respective colors based on the colorway. The red and white iteration sees bold red detailing the 650 branding details and the N logo -- this accents the forefoot, collars, midsole molds, some paneling, and the basketball logo on top of the tongue. Additionally, there are black details on top of the NB tongue, collars, treading, and trimming -- the same detail applies to the blue version.
