Tiago Lemos x New Balance Numeric 808 "Forest Green Black" NM808LGC

The Tiago Lemos x New Balance Numeric 808 “Forest Green Black” NM808LGC marries retro inspiration with New Balance’s state-of-the-art technology. This second signature model for Tiago Lemos integrates a full-length ABZORB midsole renowned for exceptional impact absorption, ensuring a blend of cushioning and compression resistance essential for both skateboarding and daily use. The sneaker further benefits from a REVlite midsole, delivering lightweight cushioning that maintains support and durability.

Strategically placed suede overlays on the upper enhance the sneaker’s durability, especially in areas most susceptible to wear from skateboarding. The combination of suede and mesh in the upper ensures durability while offering breathability. Lace ghillies, included in the design, effectively reduce the chance of tearing laces, extending the life of the sneaker.

The design allows for an adjustable lace closure, providing a custom fit tailored to the wearer’s foot. A re-designed internal heel pod ensures that the foot stays securely in place, offering stability and support. The sneaker features bold N branding, making a strong visual statement, while the “Forest Green Black” colourway adds to its visual appeal.

This model not only pays homage to Tiago Lemos’s influence in skateboarding but also showcases New Balance’s commitment to merging performance with longevity in sneaker design.
