Return to the ’90s with JD Sports Australia’s complete selection of New Balance 878s, a collection of retro sneakers brought back into the spotlight. This recently revived series has the appearance of a classic running shoe while adding tons of modern features to provide maximum comfort. Behind the NB 878’s eye-catching exterior, which clearly shows the striking ‘N’ logo on the side of the suede and mesh upper, are technologies that have made New Balance a success in the world of performance footwear. One such technology is ABZORB cushioning, a foam-based add-on present in the heel and forefoot; if you’re after a runner that provides lots of impact resistance, this is an inspired choice.
What Is the New Balance 878?
Originally released in the 1990s, the New Balance 878 is not a ‘new’ sneaker in the traditional sense, but it is a fresh re-release that the newer generations will likely be encountering for the first time. After hiding in the NB archives for decades, this hidden gem (no longer hidden) is finally ready to make itself known, and with classic style being all the rage these days, that shouldn’t be hard to do.
As an almost one-to-one recreation of the original model, the updated New Balance 878 gives off the vibe of an older running shoe. The aesthetic presents bold colours and plenty of contrast, so those wearing them casually can stand out, proudly repping their chosen colourway, which could be anything from a simple grey to a less common brown. The athletic among us, however, will be enticed to make a purchase because of the well-cushioned midsole, treasuring the feeling of each foot placement during a long yet enjoyable run.
