New Balance Numeric & Skateboarder Andrew Reynolds Launch First Signature Colorway, 480BOS

New Balance Numeric and skateboarding legend Andrew Reynolds have announced the launch of his first signature colorway, the 480BOS.

Originally released in 1983 as a basketball shoe, New Balance Numeric has since remixed the 480 by making it more robust and durable for the streets. The upcoming New Balance x Andrew Reynolds 480BOS is constructed from brushed nubuck, premium suede, and leather. The pair is equipped with a full-length FuelCell midsole for primed propulsion, an Ndurance rubber outsole for increased grip, and a molded Abzorb midsole for enhanced comfort and reduced strain. Lastly, a “Reynolds” signature is spotlighted on the tongue tags.

“During one of my first meetings with New Balance Numeric, the team showed me the 480 and asked, ‘Would you skate this?’ I was blown away because it’s exactly what I had been wanting–a vintage cupsole shoe with a modernized foam midsole,” shared Reynolds in an official press release. 

Interested readers can look for the New Balance x Andrew Reynolds 480BOS to release on September 18 at 12 am EST via NewBalance.com and select retailers for $100. Keep it locked to our New Balance Release Dates Calendar for updates.
