Style Code: UN340VNB
Conquer long street sessions with maximum impact defense and enhanced durability in the New Balance Numeric 340. Engineered for core skateboarding, this low-profile vulcanized model pairs classic board feel with strategic underfoot protection. Dressed in a cool Zinc Blue with NB Navy colorway, the NM340 features a rich multi-material upper crafted from durable suede, pigskin leather, and breathable mesh designed to stand up to heavy grip tape flick.
