New Balance’s XC72 is an all-new sneaker to the label’s line-up, with a look that nods to both the past and present. They’re bold, too, and even more so with these ones — the suede and mesh uppers are colour blocked in shades of blue, yellow and black. The star of the show is the sole, though — it’s chunky, has asymmetrical tread and extends onto the toes.
