‘2040’ is the latest model in the 1000 series, the pinnacle of New Balance which begins with 1300. Simply and unstylish, strangely looking at people that wear them, these strange shoes look cool. Made in USA, the new ‘2040v3’ has been released. The upper is Horween leather with a REVlite midsole. I think they’re really good and probably very comfortable to wear. Price: 40,000JPY.
