Inspired by a mid-cut hiker boot, the men’s 989v1 work shoe features tough technology catering to the industrial worker who wants over-the-ankle protection. A durable fullgrain leather front half offers rugged durability, while a synthetic/mesh back adds breathability to keep your feet comfortable when the day gets tough. Meanwhile, REVlite midsole cushioning and an NB Ultra Soft Comfort insert offer the comfortable support you need to do what you do.

Added features include a slip resistant rubber outsole, composite safety toe cap, and electrical hazard protection. Combined with a signature New Balance comfortable fit, it’s designed to give all-day support to the light-duty industrial worker.
