New Balance® 997R sneakers
and they're now famous for kicks that combine fashion and function—just ask any true sneaker aficionado. After being released in the early '90s to great success, New Balance's 997 went dark for a while until they were recently reintroduced. These are the more streamlined version of the original cult classic—we think they were worth the wait.

Versatile, comfortable, stylish sneakers
January 12, 2025I love these sneakers: they’re well-cushioned and sleek and wear well all day. I ordered half a size down because New Balance tend to fit slightly large for me and don’t regret it, but I think you could go true-to-size, too. They are quite narrow in the toe box.
