New Balance Numeric Shoe 480 Low (Black/Grey)

The New Balance Numeric 480 Low in Black/Grey is a skate-ready reinterpretation of a heritage basketball silhouette. Its design is both a nod to the classic court shoes of the late ‘80s and early ‘90s and a response to the rigorous demands of modern skateboarding. Premium suede, leather, and mesh construction provides durability, flexibility, and breathability in key areas, while its clean color blocking gives the shoe a timeless aesthetic that holds up both at the spot and on the street.

This model is equipped with FuelCell foam in the midsole, offering a responsive and propulsive ride that adds energy to every push and pop. A reinforced toe cap ensures longer wear during technical flip tricks and ledge sessions, making it a reliable choice for skaters who value both style and longevity. The gum rubber outsole features multi-directional tread patterns, enhancing grip and board feel without compromising traction or control. The iconic New Balance "N" logo adds a bold, athletic flair to the clean side panel design.

Weighing in at approximately 497.75 grams (17.6 oz), the NM480MGC strikes a solid balance between protection and responsiveness. Originally a brand best known for performance running and lifestyle sneakers, New Balance made its mark in skateboarding through its Numeric line, which blends the brand’s high-performance engineering with feedback from some of the most respected skateboarders in the world.

From basketball roots to grip tape streets, the 480 Low bridges generations of sport and subculture, perfect for those who demand versatility, comfort, and legit skate performance in one package.
