in Sneakers
New Balance shoes never needed to do much to be great. Their normalcy is what makes them special and stylish. And I'm not just talking about the dad shoes. Even its skateboarding shoes hit in their simplest color schemes.
The New Balance 440v2 High "Quicksand" is a great example. It's a beige-and-black version of the high-top sneaker, with suede and mesh uppers and the usual skate fixings.
And that's all, folks.
Nothing more or less is needed. It's perfect as is.
