New Balance debuts the Gator Run, a bold new lifestyle reinterpretation of a classic sport heritage model that is unapologetically unconventional.

Originally released in 1982, this low-profile sneaker fuses together retro roots with a sense of eccentricity through unexpected textures, colors and visual cues that push the boundaries of traditional sportswear. Its iconic toothy soles are paired with a glossy patent leather upper, embossed with a bold crocodile print. The result is a hybrid aesthetic: nostalgic yet progressive, familiar but unexpected, crafted for the runway and everyday style.
