One of New Balances latest releases, the CM996M BT, pops because of its subtle features.
Speaking generally the sneaker comes in two colorways beeing Beige/Brown/Pink and Black/Blue/Pink.

Both colorways of the CM996M BT include details like the two color midsole and laces, cross stitching at the toebox, wooden pearls at the bottom of the lace section as well as the multicolored stitchings at the N logo.
Also the sneaker has the native american theme feel that we have seen already on other sneaker releases recently. The theme is captured not only by the colors chosen but with the pattern on the tongue tag as well as on the back.

Last but not least the material mix is worth the mention. For the upper New Balance used durable synthetics at the toebox, suede for the logo, nubuck, leather around the laces and full grain leather as well as canvas at the back.

The New Balance CM996M BT is now available in the two colorways at select New Balance retailers like Atmos.
