COMME des GARÇONS HOMME works in collaboration with New Balance to present a new variation of the 610S sneaker model. This is essentially a laceless version of the 610 sneaker model. It rests on top of the same hiking sole unit but has a clean forefoot section and branding in the front.
The shoe takes on a stealthy colorway palette with an all-black visual and it is constructed from mesh, leather, and suede throughout the upper for a premium look and feel. It rests on a slightly chunky outsole unit and branding is applied in white for a touch of tonal contrast. The 'N' marks the forefoot and the 'tongue' section is detailed with COMME des GARÇONS branding.
