New Balance's New MSCRC Silhouette is Imbued With Rugged Hiking Details

Following its collaboration with Red Wing Boots, New Balance is back with to showcase its latest hiking focused sneaker — the MSCRC.

Featured are three distinct colorways, “White,” “Black” and “Grey/Blue,” made up by a mix of rugged textiles like CORDURA, mesh, suede and ripstop nylon. The sneaker boasts CORDURA fabrics along the semi-exposed tongue and cushioned collars, detailed with slim, curved lines referencing topographical maps. Soft suede panels are placed at the front of the tongue, followed by round laces held together by strips of ripstop that form the shape of the letter “N” at the sidewalls. Mesh underlays and a smooth toe cap complement other details like “New Balance” branding at the heel and multi-colored top-stitching. All of these things sit atop an essential ENCAP REVEAL midsole, underscored by a thinly treaded Vibram outsole.

All three colorways of the New Balance MSCRC will be available at sneakersnstuff.com on September 6, 5 am EST for $159 USD.
