New Balance Applies Cut & Abrasion Resistant SuperFabric to the 997 & 998
Reinforced Made In USA classics in tonal olive and tan.
Having recently utilized CORDURA material on a slew of models, New Balance applies the cut and abrasion resistant SuperFabric material to two classic Made In USA silhouettes, the 997 and 998.
Firstly, the 997, code name M997NAL, is built with pigskin suede and leather overlaps atop SuperFabric nylon underlays at the midfoot, tongue and collar, both in a tonal olive hue. Next, the 998 or M998BLC, features the same pigskin and SuperFabric construction, however with a tonal tan colorway. Each iteration also includes embroidered tongue branding, ENCAP and ABZORB sole units respectively, and rubber outsoles.
Both SuperFabric New Balances are available at select retailers, including Packer Shoes, for $210 USD and $180 USD respectively.
