Originally unveiled to the world in 2008, the New Balance 993 combines features from its 991 and 992 predecessors while introducing technical improvements. The upper sports a breathable mesh base with pigskin leather overlays built to enhance the structure of the silhouette and resist abrasion from the elements. Down below, the ABZORB DTS midsole is a Dynamic Transitioning System featuring cushion and stability for shock absorption. A tough rubber outsole helps to add on the miles.
