New Balance offers up another premium iteration to its Made In The USA 998. The trainer features a mainly monochromatic colorway which sees uppers made from black suede, synthetics, and of course, pony hair. Pony hair is present at just the right amount in the tongue, toe box and heel portions of the shoe; easily distinguished at certain angles, when the light reflects off the individual hairs.

Finishing off the shoe is a contrasting New Balance ABZORB midsole in white, along with a marginal hit of red. The New Balance Made In The USA “Pony Hair” 998 can be found now over at The Premiere Store for a price of $190 USD.

In other footwear news, Eric Emanuel’s adidas Originals Crazy BYW kicks have a release date.
