New Balance's Made in UK 670 Sneakers Gets a Multi-Tonal Colorway

— May 10, 2021 — Fashion
New Balance introduces a new tonal iteration of the Made in UK 670 sneaker model. The shoes have an understated palette that is inspired by the hues of nature. It nods to warm summer colors including olive green, pink, and amber. The New Balance logo found at the top of the tongue is marked in a bright red color.

The shoe is part of the brand's ongoing 'Selected Edition' range. The laces over the forefoot are adorned in a forest green color by the sidewalls. Brighter yellow make up the N logo at the dual-stacked side and a blue suede toe cap. Mesh materials detail the paneling around the ankle section and the toe box.
