,
American designer Todd Snyder has a formidable track record when it comes to collaborations. A serial New Balance cooperative, his latest take on the 997 exudes the typical clean executions expected from his brand, this time dubbed ‘Chalk Stripe’.
There's a menagerie of leathers on show, using a mix of patent snakeskin-embossed and OG suede. On paper, it sounds like an absolute disaster, but they’re clean AF IRL. The palette stays clean with the predominately grey and white upper accented by a hint of gold on the MCD and midsole accent. They do resemble the M998CEL, which is a good thing!
They’ve just landed exclusively at Todd Snyder. Get on it!
