471 KAC | Angora/Garter Snake
$190.00 NZD
Vintage inspired detail. The 471 features era-authentic design details. A wedge-shaped EVA midsole, herringbone outsole, and an exposed foam tongue are joined by a New Balance design signature – the ‘fang’ overlay pattern.
The sleek, low-profile design isn’t just inspired by the designs of the 1970s. The 471 is actually built on the same last as the original 320, an archival icon that revolutionized road running performance.
Description
