When New Balance announced they were entering the skateboarding realm there were a lot of people who were skeptical. There was a lot of "another big sports brand" sentiment. There is no question that the bigger sporting footwear brands have overtaken skateboarding footwear.
Fast-forward 11 years to where New Balance Numeric has carved out a sizable chunk of the skate shoe pie. Not only do they have one of the best teams featuring Andrew Reynolds, Jamie Foy, and Tom Knox, they are also pumping out incredible looking and functioning skate shoes.
For the third time, they have teamed up with artist Jeremy Fish and 303 Skate Shop out of Denver Colorado to bring you a limited edition sneaker with incredible detail. The Limited Edition 480 in Brown and Pink has custom embroidery around the collar, embossed imagery on different parts of the premium leather, and a custom insole. Not only does this shoe look clean while subtly being loud, it is also 100% skate-able. Get your eyes on these in our online store, or walk through our doors to pick up a pair.
