Footwear label New Balance introduces its new 'Reconstructed Pack,' featuring the signature 'X-90' sneaker model in a variety of colorways. The X-90 silhouette is designed with inspiration drawn from the label's original 99x series, which really emphasizes the retro design elements of the 90s. There are four colorway options in total -- all of which are muted, comprised of the combinations of off-white, white, gray, black, silver, and light yellow.
Additional details include its oversized tooling and special mixed-material uppers, spotlighting co-existing textiles contrasting upon one another. The uppers incorporate engineered mesh and leather and boast branding details on the side and the tongue tab. The Reconstructed Pack is set to launch online at New Balance beginning January 5th.
