Light Gray-Palette Lifestyle Sneakers

New Balance Unveils the New Lifestyle Fluid Minimalist Pack

New Balance introduces the brand new Fluid Minimalist pack that is spotlighted by the signature 1500 sneaker silhouette for the season. The brand continues to offer lifestyle shapes that are made for any occasion and the latest palette is rooted in light grays for a neutral versatile design language.

The shoes are designed with suede overlaying details for a soft feel and it makes up the toe boxes, the heels, and the midfoot sections. It is also applied with the brand's signature gray hue as navy blue continues to add a touch of contrast by the toe box overlaying accent and the mesh breathable underlays. "Made in England" details can be seen on the tongue and the N logo.
