New Balance 993 Made in USA

Suede: Fine natural leather with a brushed finish that features a soft feel and elegant look. It offers good breathability and high wearing comfort, while gradually adapting to the shape of the foot. The material is both durable and flexible, ensuring comfort in everyday use. Suede is the ideal choice for footwear where the emphasis is on style, comfort and timeless design.

EVA: Polymeric foam material valued for its exceptional lightness, flexibility and ability to absorb shock. In footwear construction, it is mainly used in midsoles, where it acts as a key cushioning layer protecting the musculoskeletal system from hard impacts. The material is made up of thousands of microscopic air bubbles that compress under load and then return to their original shape. EVA is also highly resistant to low temperatures, does not absorb water and is biologically inert, making it a safe and versatile material for sports and leisure footwear.

ABZORB®: Cutting-edge cushioning technology developed by New Balance. It is a blend of isoprene rubber and special foam that is designed to absorb and dissipate the energy generated when the foot hits the ground. Unlike conventional foams, ABZORB® retains its shape and cushioning properties for longer. Thanks to its excellent compression resistance, it effectively protects the joints and musculoskeletal system, while ensuring a high level of comfort even under prolonged loading on hard surfaces.

Rubber: It is one of the most widely used materials for the production of soles due to its high mechanical resistance and durability. The main advantage of rubber soles is their excellent grip (traction) on different types of surfaces, which minimises the risk of slipping. The material is naturally flexible, waterproof and effectively absorbs shocks during walking. Depending on the compound, the rubber can be either soft for better contact with the ground or hard for maximum abrasion resistance on rough terrain.
