New Balance 1978 Made in USA Silver Mint

1978 by New Balance

Desireable athletic shoes with style for casual wear. Light weight, thin soft suede. Good looking design. Find pictures of US factory google topic. See cut suede pieces before assembled. Candidly, the feather weight shoes lack the protective feel of a smooth leather high top having solid rubber sole, but these are fashion without the color combinations of runners' shoe. Might be a bit short and tight over topside of foot. Suede will stretch and my foot has expanded in middle age! I've heard a half inch of free space at end of toes is ideal fit.
