Goods

  • Premium Suede: The entire body is made of premium Suede Leather. The texture varies (hairy vs. smooth), giving it a rich look.
  • Classy Color: The "Sea Salt" (Off-White) color looks incredibly classy and expensive.
  • Retro Vibe: Inspired by 1980s basketball shoes, it has a perfect retro low-top silhouette.
  • Velvet Touch: The inner lining feels like velvet, adding to the luxury feel.
  • Unique Detail: The "N" logo is sharp on the inside but "puffy" on the outside—a cool design detail (don't think it's fake!).
  • Better than Nike: New Balance is innovating with designs, unlike Nike which just changes colors on the same old models.

Bads

  • Maintenance: Since it's suede and light-colored, keeping it clean will be a task.
  • Thin Sole: The sole is quite thin and low-to-the-ground, which some might not prefer.
