There’s a lot to love about the New Balance 247v2

Boston-based brand New Balance has released the 247v2 starting with the Tritium pack. The updated silhouette nods to the New Balance heritage while representing the intersection between lifestyle and sports. The new 247 combines craftsmanship, technology, and fit as well as the versatility necessary for an on-the-go lifestyle.

The New Balance 247v2 offers a more substantial upper versus that of the original 247. It includes a single piece toebox, molded TPU eyerow and collar, and a sprung sock construction. The style offers a new midsole with exaggerated proportions and flared rear/midfoot area.

Taking inspiration from the classic New Balance Rollbar technology, the 247v2 features a medial TPU stability post. The outsole is a mix of current performance aesthetic, along with the original 247 DNA. The new tooling allows for color blocking options along the entire outer sole for defined pops of color.
