One of New Balance's slimmer silhouettes, the 420 has arrived at retailers in two colorways this month. Originally designed for strenuous distance runs, the shoes are constructed with premium suede and nylon uppers and cushioned rubber soles. The red-based runner is accented by white on the tongue, "N" logo and heel tab, while grey works the collar lining and an overlay on the heel. White also works the laces, lining and leather details on the royal pair, leaving a red midsole and black outsole complete the look below.

Both New Balance 420 colorways are currently available at KithNYC.com and Kith NYC stores for $65.
