The collaborative embodiment of two iconic American footwear brands, the New Balance and Red Wing M997RW sneaker offers rugged Americana and sportswear style in spades.
Founded a mere year apart at the turn of the 20th Century, New Balance and Red Wing have been proudly positioned as two of the central forces in premium American footwear for over 100 years. Synonymous with Americana spirit and an aesthetic rooted in the combination of style and functionality, Minnesota's Red Wing are renowned for their rugged work boots while Boston's New Balance have cultivated a defining sense of identity within the sneaker scene.
Interpreting Red Wing's iconic moc toe heritage work boot, the classic M997 sneaker sees '90s running style collide with high-quality materials, taking on the distinctive tan colour scheme of the rugged boot. With uppers cut from soft pigskin suede, leather lining and ENCAP midsole technology for supreme comfort and support, the M9978RW sneaker encapsulates and combines the central elements of New Balance and Red Wing. Finished off with a gum rubber outsole for a final flourish of signature Americana style, this limited edition sneaker collaboration sees two titans of footwear collide with spectacular results.
