Founded in 1906, New Balance has long prided itself in quality production. Hosting its global headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts, the label has often kept American manufacturing at its core. Its journey to international domination began a mere 40 years ago, opening the doors to its factory in the coastal village of Flimby, United Kingdom.

Its workers have crafted some of NB's most classic models, shaped by advanced technology and mastered detailing. To celebrate the anniversary, New Balance is launching its "Flimby Celebration Pack" made up of updated classics.
The range highlights five iconic models, including the New Balance 1500, 991, 773, 670 and 920. Every pair is dressed in high-quality materials that reflect the meticulous craftsmanship delivered by Flimby factory workers since 1982, including breathable mesh, supple leather and pigskin suede. These are paired with aged midsoles and "Made In England" branding.
