New Balance Numeric Just Dropped Its Most Versatile Skate Shoe Yet

"The 770 is a modern reintroduction of a versatile ‘90s classic. Originally designed as a cross-trainer and quickly adopted by tennis players for unmatched court stability, the 770 has been remixed and refined for skateboarding," Southside mentions.

"This hybrid sneaker is built for the street, the court, and the gym, offering a more generous lifestyle fit and premium durability, while including all the hidden Numeric details you would expect: dual-layered toe, hidden lace loops, and tongue-centering straps."

Long story short—this shoe is versatile, stylish and built for whatever you wanna throw at it.

Skateboarding is changing. There's no denying it. And seeing a brand like New Balance design a shoe that's built for an active lifestyle as much as it is for skateboarding itself is super rad, if you ask me. Skate 'em. Wear 'em to the gym. Shoot, you could probably run a 5K in them without any foot pain. I'm backing these hard.
