A stylish new way to take on the trail, built with plenty of cushion and all-terrain capabilities Believe it or not, New Balance isn’t new to the world of trail shoes—for a while now they’ve been taking that same quality footwear know-how that made them an institution in the sneaker world, and putting it towards improving the way we take on the outdoors. The Fresh Foam Crag shoes are cushioned for unforgiving terrain, tractioned for wet surfaces, and simply good looking thanks to the vintage-meets-modern design aesthetic. Finish that out with a rip-stop nylon and hardy mesh upper, and you’d have thought New Balance actually got their start making hiking boots.
