The New Balance 373V2 arrives here in a classic black colourway, built on a low-top lace-up silhouette that mixes suede panels with breathable mesh. Suede covers the toe box, heel counter, eyelet facing and side panels, giving a matte, napped texture, while mesh sections across the tongue and vamp keep things lighter and more breathable. The large tonal 'N' logo on the side, picked out in dark grey suede with clean straight stitching, is instantly recognisable as the classic New Balance shape, and contrast grey stitching along the overlays and toe seam adds a subtle detail that lifts the finish beyond a plain black trainer.
A padded tongue and collar are designed for comfort through the day, with a small 'new balance' brand plaque on the tongue and heel, plus a fabric pull tab at the back for easy on-off. Five-eyelet lacing with flat black laces gives a secure, adjustable fit, and the grey printed insole carries the '373' branding for a proper heritage feel underfoot. Down below, a black EVA-type midsole pairs with a rubber outsole featuring a directional lug tread pattern and moulded New Balance branding, giving reliable grip alongside the retro running-inspired look.
This is a genuinely versatile unisex trainer that suits everyday wear as easily as it slots into a smart-casual outfit. The all-black finish makes it easy to pair with jeans, chinos or joggers alike, and the heritage 373V2 design means it works equally well as a first New Balance trainer or an addition to an existing collection. Suede and mesh construction gives it a lighter feel than a full leather trainer, without losing that classic New Balance look shoppers keep coming back for.
