Longstanding New Balance collaborative partner J.Crew is going back to work with the brand on this, a special 997 colorway.

J.Crew's not always been super keen on citing inspirations for its collab NBs, but this pair does have a story to it. The shoe aims to look like butterscotch candy with yellow brown shades.

The J.Crew x New Balance 997 "Butterscotch" releases on Saturday, March 12, at 10 a.m. for $210.

Watch the video below for a behind-the-scenes look at how these shoes were made in one of New Balance's factories right here in the U. S.
