The New Balance Numeric 480 strips the proven 480 platform back into a clean, low-profile silhouette that feels just as comfortable strolling through the streets as it does skating the park. Inspired by the basketball shoes that defined the late '80s and early '90s, it combines timeless styling with modern skate-specific construction, making it an easy choice for skaters who want a shoe that performs on the board without looking overly technical off it.
Underfoot, a full-length FuelCell midsole delivers impressive impact protection and a lively feel, while the reinforced suede upper is built to handle the day-to-day punishment of skateboarding. Comfortable straight out of the box and backed by New Balance's reputation for premium footwear, the Numeric 480 is a dependable all-rounder that blends classic style with modern performance.

About The Brand
Founded in Boston in 1906, New Balance has earned its place as one of footwear’s most respected names through more than a century of fit, function and proper shoemaking. The brand still operates its own factories in the United States and United Kingdom, carrying a manufacturing heritage that few major footwear companies can match. New Balance Numeric brings that same depth of experience into skateboarding, combining its proven cushioning and support technology with purpose-built construction, genuine board feel and direct input from one of the strongest teams in skateboarding. The result is skate footwear with real heritage behind it, built to be skated rather than simply borrowing the look.
