New Balance® X J.Crew 997 10th Anniversary sneakers

and they're now famous for kicks that combine fashion and function—just ask any true sneaker aficionado. This J.Crew-exclusive pair of 997s celebrates a decade of collaborating with the New England sneaker brand, and features tonal suede uppers with a subtle embossed "N" logo. We chose these colors to mark the occasion since a 10th anniversary is traditionally marked with tin. Turn the sneaker around to see the embroidered x on the heel—you'll also find a co-branded footbed and 3M® speckled laces (not to mention the special packaging that holds these limited-edition shoes).
