The New Balance Numeric 272 “Phantom Black” NM272GGB redefines vulcanized skate shoes with its unique build, making it a go-to choice for skateboarders and sneaker enthusiasts. Merging practical design with comfort, this shoe stands out in the skate footwear scene.

The shoe’s standout feature is its innovative outsole, designed to provide excellent board feel in the forefoot area. This design is key for skateboarders, offering enhanced control and responsiveness. The outsole also includes a vaulted heel design to help prevent heel bruising, a frequent issue for active skaters.

Drawing inspiration from New Balance’s classic running shoes, the Numeric 272 incorporates elements of heritage into modern skateboarding requirements. It features a thin insole to maintain a close connection with the skateboard without sacrificing comfort, striking a balance between sensitivity and cushioning.

A lace closure rounds off the shoe’s design, providing a secure fit that can be adjusted to individual preferences, crucial for stability and comfort during dynamic movements.
