Summary

  • New Balance Basketball is introducing the P400 Low, a brand-new performance silhouette tailored specifically for speed, bounce, and agility
  • WNBA star Cameron Brink serves as the headline athlete for the launch, coinciding with her feature in the brand’s new “Quiet Noise” campaign
  • The sneaker features a lowered collar height paired with N-Lock technology to maximize mobility without sacrificing a secure, locked-in fit

New Balance is continuing its massive push into the basketball market with a sleek new silhouette built for players who rely on speed and bounce. Headlined by basketball phenom Cameron Brink, the brand has officially unveiled the P400 Low. Designed to keep hoopers light on their feet from tip-off all the way through overtime, the performance model strips back the bulk in favor of an agile, low-top construction that refuses to compromise on top-tier support.

As the latest expansion of the P400 series, the Low iteration is engineered entirely around mobility. By lowering the collar height, New Balance ensures maximum freedom of movement around the ankle. To prevent any slippage or instability, the shoe utilizes the brand’s proprietary N-Lock technology, delivering a secure, locked-in fit that keeps the foot safely contained during explosive cuts and sharp lateral movements.

“The P400 Low is engineered for athletes like Cameron who need to move freely without losing lockdown,” explained Kevin Trotman, Senior Product Manager for New Balance Basketball. “The lowered collar and N-Lock technology work together to give you mobility and support throughout the entire game.”

Under the hood, the shoe is packed with tech upgrades designed to enhance responsiveness. A redesigned nylon plate provides a snappier transition down the court, while a stabilizing lateral midsole inlay offers crucial support. For players who prioritize a strong connection to the hardwood, the P400 Low features lower internal heights for an improved ground feel. Wrapping it all together is a molded upper reinforced with TPU, offering the perfect blend of flexibility and durable protection against in-game wear and tear.

The launch of the P400 Low arrives right alongside Brink’s starring role in New Balance’s latest “Quiet Noise” campaign vignette. Highlighting the unseen hours, repetition, and discipline required to compete at the highest professional level, the broader campaign also features a stacked roster of elite New Balance athletes, including Tyrese Maxey, Cooper Flagg, Darius Garland, Aaliyah Crump, and Sienna Betts.

Whether you are a shifty guard or a versatile forward looking for a lightweight summer option, the P400 Low is shaping up to be a formidable addition to the gym bag. The silhouette will officially hit retail in July 2026. Pairs will be available via online and select global basketball retailers for a competitive price point of $120 USD.
