Inspired by the brand’s ‘70s running archives, the New Balance 471 “Linen Angora Black” presents an old-school makeover infused with a contemporary aura. This silhouette is the latest addition to the brand’s lifestyle catalogue, looking to build on the success of other retro-inspired New Balance trainers.
This rendition incorporates an off-white mesh upper with hairy suede overlays and a “fang” detail on the toe derived from the NB 320. A contrasting black “N” decorates the sides, complementing the minimalist NB on the tongue and sockliner. The exposed foam on the edges naturally turns yellow with age, enhancing the 471’s vintage styling. The wedge-shaped EVA midsole boasts a dual-density foam compound for responsive cushioning. Wavy herringbone treads construct the outsole to deliver excellent traction.
