UPDATE: Jamie Foy took to Thrasher’s video platform and YouTube page to solidify his first New Balance Numeric pro model with a two-minute, face-melting skate part. Check it out below.

June 28, 2019: Skater of the Year 2018 Jamie Foy will be releasing his first pro model with New Balance Numeric, dubbed the 306. Its inaugural release will see two colorways, “Black/White” and “Green/Red,” with both featuring a contrasting white vulcanized sole unit.

Jamie Foy became an official rider for New Balance Numeric in October 2018 and was named SOTY after being spotted as an upcoming professional just two years prior to his crowning. For his first pro model with New Balance, the rising star delivers two clean takes on a low-top skateboarding shoe.

The 306 is built to withstand anything Jamie Foy can throw at them. As a result, the sneaker features a unique visible rubber underlay that reinforces the suede and mesh upper, a low profile vulcanized outsole for increased board feel and a custom molded EVA insole for comfort.

Take a look at Jamie Foy’s New Balance Numeric 306 in the gallery above and pick up your pair from select skate stores and New Balance’s website on July 1.
