The Made In USA 998 "Incense/Sandstone" stays true to the timeless design of the original 1993 model with an earthy mixed material construction. The classic silhouette is dressed in brown pigskin suede and tan hairy suede on top of a beige mesh upper with tan leather accents. It features an off white leather 'N' logo on the side, matching tongue and collar, light blue lining, white laces and a khaki TPU heel counter. The 998 was the first model to have ABZORB technology in the midsole for increased shock absorption, with a cream and black Ndurance rubber outsole capping it off. A white "New Balance 998" woven tag on the tongue and NB on the heels finish off this classic runner.
