Ronnie Fieg and New Balance have found steady success over the years thanks to a mutual respect for lush materials, mature palettes and smart silos. The KITH x nonnative x New Balance 997 sees the same truth taken to another level.
Keeping things consistent in regards to tones and textures, the ante is upped on the sole tooling. An EncapReveal sole replaces that of the standard Encap sole with an Abzord injection showing through on the heel all the way to the midfoot.
Tech aside, sandy hues highlight the mixed material upper full of what’s presumably pig suede and tactical mesh. Blue branding matches that of the cushioning hit for bold contrast.
Release details are unknown at the time for the KITH x nonnative x New Balance 997. Keep it locked to Nice Kicks for updates.
