New Balance 480 Shoes

Initially released as a basketball shoe in the early ’80s, today New Balance filters the 480 through a minimalist lifestyle sensibility. The uppers are executed in full-grain leather, with the iconic “N” logo adorning the quarter panels. A perforated toe box provides ventilation, while the heel counter offers stability. Discover the past, present and future of the New Balance 480, including reinforced styles from the Numeric skateboarding line such as the 'Juniper' colorway.
