The New Balance x J.Crew Wild Nature sneakers have been unveiled as a collaboration footwear style for those looking for a comfortable option with an earthy aesthetic to boot. Priced at $220, the sneakers come in two options including the 998 Rattlesnake and the 997 Grizzly Bear, which are characterized by their desert-like and woodsy color schemes, respectively. This natural, earthy color scheme is finished off with a camouflage interior section to further enhance the wilderness-inspired aesthetic of the footwear.
The New Balance x J.Crew Wild Nature sneakers are, as suggested above, based on the 997 sneaker from New Balance that was originally unveiled back in 1990. The sneakers are exclusively available for purchase at J. Crew stores and its online shop.
