The running shoes of the 1970s might best be described as deceptively simple.
- While lacking the visible technology and aggressive design of later years, the innovations of the ‘70s would lay the foundation for modern performance
- The 237 is a contemporary reinterpretation of ‘70s running heritage that melds a range of heritage design inspirations into one deceptively simple, exceptionally versatile, contemporary silhouette
- An EVA midsole, herringbone outsole and streamlined upper offer a classic launching point for modern flourishes like oversized N branding, extended midsole length, and gator inspired foxing and mudguard
- You could call the cohesion of the 237’s familiar feel and exaggerated updates the simplest way to make a statement
- EVA midsole
- Oversized N logo
- Large scale ripple outsole with text branding
- Asymmetric rubber tip wrap
- Exposed foam tongue
- Angled ‘New Balance’ text at heel tab
