Weatherized Understated Sneakers

New Balance Introduces a Turtledove Tonal Rainer Sneaker

— January 13, 2023 — Fashion
New Balance presents its latest creation of the classic Rainer sneaker model in a Turtledove colorway palette. Boasting an understated design, it highlights its GORE-TEX weatherized construction, ready to combat the terrains of winter. It is made from breathable material to create a waterproof exterior and continues to build upon that with the Vibram outsole unit that rests under, adding more grip.

Overall, it has different shades of cram and the paneled details also travel to the neutral N logo along the lateral side of the shoe. The collars are complete with smooth leather materials and rounding out the design are the speckled accents that detail the shoe all over -- it is now available to shop online.
