New Balance is set to embark on a multi-week celebration of Grey throughout May, paying homage to its timeless signature color and brand heritage. The announcement heralds a spotlight on both new and classic expressions of the brand’s enduring legacy in Grey, a color introduced with deliberate intent in the 1980s as part of New Balance’s pursuit of crafting superior running shoes.
In an era where innovation reigned supreme, New Balance boldly introduced Grey as a distinctive color choice, standing out amidst its competitors. Not only did Grey prove to be aesthetically pleasing, but it also seamlessly blended with the urban landscape of road running. Over the years, as technology and materials evolved, Grey remained a constant, symbolizing New Balance’s timeless quality and style.
