Minimal Greyscale Lifestyle Sneakers

New Balance Presents the 2010 with a Nimbus Cloud Colorway

New Balance unveils its iconic Nimbus Cloud colorway palette once again with the launch of the new 2010 NB3 2010 model. The new silhouette is dubbed the New Premium Classic. Inspiration stems from heritage models, including the 99X series. The 2010 is rooted in its archival influence as the design also features a modern refinement.

The colorway is detailed with soft neutral tones along with other updated materials. As a result, it offers a clean and sophisticated take on the brand's lifestyle line. The 2010 sneaker model merges elements of comfort with modern styling to cater to the new generation as well. There is yet to be an official launch date set for the model.
