New Balance introduces a look at the new upgrade to the Niobium Concept 3 boots just ahead of the winter season around the corner. The terrain-gripping base is supported by the rugged outsole unit and the upper is defined by two separate parts.
The shoes are made with a dual-layer construction which is comprised of a water-repellent inner boot -- this is a removable section. The second part is the waterproof exterior shell which can be added for more protection. The Niobium Concept 3 was created by the team at the brand's Tokyo Design Studio. The silhouette is not brand new as it was first launched last year in collaboration with Snow Peak and now gets a new earthy palette.
