New Balance Goes Tonal With Its Latest Fall 998 Releases
This fall, New Balance attempts to satisfy our sneaker cravings with the release of two new versions of its beloved 998 model. Check them out below and see if they’re must-haves for your fall sneaker rotation.
New Balance Goes Kanye…Oops, I Mean Tonal!
Is New Balance getting inspiration from Kanye West and his latest 350v2 sneakers? Ehhh….I highly doubt it, but we can’t help but ask the question due to the look of their new releases.
The varying shades of brown, tan, and grey that dominate the shoe’s give-off Yeezy Sesame vibes and work well with the silhouette, in our opinion.
Are these the best looking 998s we’ve seen? Not by a long shot, but they’re not supposed to be the most striking. They’re perfect for those seeking a pair of understated sneakers that go well with just about anything in their wardrobe.
If you’re looking for comfort that lasts all-day, then these are sure to deliver. Personally my favorite pair by New Balance, the 998s are a must-have in any modern sneaker rotation.
Interested In Copping A Pair?
Nothing we’ve seen online suggests that these will be difficult to get, however, the tan/brown pair (M998BLC) appears to be somewhat of a limited edition, perhaps.
How limited?…..We can’t say, but we suggest that you don’t sleep if you’re interested in copping.
Fortunately, both of these come in at the normal retail price-point of $179.99 and are offered by a variety of online retailers including NewBalance.com.
In-Store or Online
Depending on where you live, you probably won’t be able to purchase these in-store, as not many retailers in the US offer these models. Not sure if your local store does? Be sure and give them a call to see, just in case they do.
Online shoppers can head on over to NewBalance.com ASAP to snag a pair, now!
