New Balance have added a plush, deep burgundy and charcoal colourway into the 997 line up as part of the 'Connoisseur Guitar' series they are rolling out that also included the beautiful NB996 'Pistachio'. The two colours coalesce brilliantly as the understated charcoal on the front end looks stoic in comparison to the regal burgundy on the logo and heel. The guitar reference is acknowledged with a guitar pick that comes with the 997, which is available from NB retailers like Rise today.
