New Balance XC-72 Trainers Black / Black Pour

The new XC-72 pushes its classic sources of inspiration even further into unexplored territory, with a time-bending design inspired by the speculative technological optimism of 1970s concept cars. Three distinctive traction outsole patterns and angular features are employed to give the familiar low-cut sleekness of the era’s running shoes an aggressive, experimental edge. The XC-72 is the future that the past dreamed about, come to life.

• Vertically split outsole features two hard ground traction designs the XC15’s ‘gripper’ and the 375’s studded pattern.
• Stability heel clip featuring the 620s herringbone outsole pattern.
• Suede and recycled mesh upper with recycled content in N logo, lace and lining.
• Rubber outsole with 5% recycled content.
• Single layer microfiber tongue.
• Squared toe shape inspired by 1970s concept car designs
