Previewed at the beginning of December and already released in Japan, the nonnative x New Balance CM997 slowly approaches its February international release date.

The light brown upper features mesh, suede and leather, sitting on a "997.5" sole. Bright blue accents provide an interesting twist to the mostly tonal sneaker.

The nonnative x New Balance CM997HNN drops online at Sneakersnstuff on February 4.
