Like new. The New Balance 997H ‘Light Rogue Wave’ applies a vibrant blue finish to a retooled version of the classic 997, designed by Steve Smith and originally released in the early ‘90s. A traditional blend of mesh and suede is utilized on the upper, along with white leather detailing on the signature ‘N’ logo and heel tab. A contrasting pop of crimson lands on the wraparound heel clip. The sneaker rides on a lightweight ENCAP Reveal midsole, supported by durable gum rubber under the toe and heel.
