Product Description:
Commemorating four decades of timeless craftsmanship, the New Balance 1300 Made in USA '40th Anniversary' reintroduces one of the brand’s most revered colorways. Originally launched in 1985 and released only every five years in limited numbers, the silhouette returns in 2025 with a masterfully executed mix of premium materials and signature design language.

The upper features steel blue mesh underlays complemented by grey suede overlays, giving the sneaker its heritage-rich tonal depth. A white leather ‘N’ logo, accented with subtle light blue trim, adds a clean contrast to the muted palette. Additional branding includes a woven NB 1300 tongue tag and a debossed 'New Balance' leather heel tab.

Underfoot, the shoe is equipped with a full-length ENCAP midsole, blending lightweight foam with a polyurethane rim for structure and durability—staying true to the performance-forward DNA of the original 1300.
