The sneaker game has been blessed with some vibrant 1000s lately. Just check out the Lime Leaf from last week. But with fall coming up just around the corner, sometimes you just want something that's more fitted for the dark and moody season. If that sounds like you, feast your eyes on the upcoming New Balance 1000 Rust Grey.
The great thing about the Rust Grey is that it doesn't feel the need to scream in order to stand out. Dipped in an earthy color combo, it works on top of a diamond-knit mesh base that offers unreal ventilation wherever you go. Smooth leather panels wrap around the sneaker, while glossy panelling takes over the tongue tag and heel badge for added contrast. The "N" logo across the sides is also made from translucent rubber to give the silhouette a subtle futuristic edge.
