A quintessential heritage runner that originally debuted in February 2014. It is highly regarded for its premium craftsmanship and "all-grey" aesthetic, a hallmark of the New Balance brand.
Premium Construction: The upper is primarily built from a lush charcoal-grey pigskin suede complemented by tonal grey mesh underlays for breathability.
Iconic Details:
Reflective Accents: The signature "N" side logo features a white backer and 3M reflective silver detailing, which is also present on the heel tab.
Branding: Traditional "998 New Balance Made in USA" is embroidered on the grey suede tongue.
Sole Unit: A white and grey midsole provides a clean contrast, sitting atop a durable black rubber outsole.
ABZORB Cushioning: This model features a signature ABZORB midsole at the heel, which was revolutionary upon the 998's initial 1993 debut for its superior shock absorption and compression resistance.
Materials: Constructed with 100% premium pigskin suede, textile mesh lining, and a high-density rubber sole for traction.
MADE in USA: Produced as part of the premium domestic line, signifying it contains a domestic value of 70% or more.
Fit: A true to size fit, though the silhouette is noted for its slightly wider-than-average heel base (86.6 mm) for added stability.
While it has a "runner soul," it is primarily intended as a lifestyle sneaker for all-day casual wear due to its premium, heavy materials.
Target Gender: Unisex
