The New Balance 997 in its 'Black Magnet' version showcases a striking combination of black mesh, suede, and artificial snakeskin materials on the upper, providing not only a bold aesthetic but also optimal breathability through perforated paneling on the toe. Crafted with precision in the USA, this edition showcases contrasting navy tones on the tongue, while purple and magenta accents grace the collar and sockliner. Adding a touch of sophistication, an embroidered tonal ‘N’ logo embellishes the quarter panel, all the while incorporating a gum outsole for enhanced traction and durability.
