Introducing the New Balance Numeric
The New Balance Numeric line, launched in 2003, marked the brand’s dedicated entry into skateboarding footwear, merging New Balance’s signature comfort and durability with the specific demands of street skating.
Developed in collaboration with professional skateboarders, Numeric models feature reinforced uppers made from suede and leather, cushioned midsoles, and grippy rubber outsoles for enhanced board control and impact protection. While maintaining New Balance’s hallmark focus on fit and support, the line emphasises lightweight construction and abrasion resistance to endure the rigours of skateboarding.
