The New Balance MT10 “Pumpernickel” takes trail running roots and reshapes them for everyday wear. Born from the original Minimus Trail 10, this model keeps the lightweight, barefoot-inspired feel that made the line popular. But this time, it arrives with a bold lifestyle twist.
At first glance, the low profile Mary Jane design sets it apart. It’s stripped back. Sleek. Slightly unexpected. The deconstructed, ballerina-style upper gives the MT10 a fashion-led edge, while still holding onto its outdoor DNA. If you like trainers that feel different from the usual rotation, this pair hits that sweet spot.
The upper blends suede and mesh for breathability and structure. You get airflow through the mesh panels, balanced by premium suede overlays that add texture and depth. The rich “Pumpernickel” colourway leans earthy and versatile. Easy to style. Easy to wear. Premium materials are used throughout, including cow, pig, and sheep leather, giving the shoe a layered, quality finish that feels considered without trying too hard.
Underfoot, the Vibram® outsole delivers reliable grip on a range of surfaces. Pavement. Park paths. Light trails. The traction pattern bites without adding bulk, keeping the silhouette slim and flexible. That natural ground feel remains a key part of the MT10 identity.
