480
There is no doubt the 480 is a skateboard influenced silhouette. It is a clean, classic, and simple shoe. It works on a skateboard and off. The 480 is inspired by the BB680 basketball shoes. The sneaker replaced much of its hoop’s inspiration for skating. The sturdy heel of the 480 is definitely a skate inspired update. There are other staples of a classic board shoe, like a thicker platform sole and a bigger tongue. First released in 2023, the New Balance 480 is an affordable and stylish newcomer to the sneaker scene.
