Description
The running shoes of the 1970s can best be described as deceptively simple. Although they lacked the visible technology and aggressive design of later years, the innovations of the 70s laid the foundation for modern performance. The New Balance 237 is a contemporary reinterpretation of the running heritage of the 70s, bringing together a range of design inspirations from that era in a strikingly simple, extraordinarily versatile, and modern silhouette. An EVA midsole, herringbone outsole, and streamlined upper provide a classic base for modern embellishments such as oversized N-branding, an extended midsole, and an alligator-inspired foxing and mudguard. One might call the connection between the familiar feel of the 237 and the exaggerated updates the simplest way to make a statement.
