272 "Margielyn Didal" NM272MLD

The New Balance 272 "Margielyn Didal" is designed in part with Filipino Olympian skater Margielyn Didal. For this design. Didal taps into her Cebuano roots with inspiration from a classic Filipino snack called “puso.â€?which is a woven pouch made of coconut leaves packed with rice. The black suede and mesh upper is paired with a gray checkered pattern on the lateral side that mimics the snack's exterior after being weaved. Rounding off the footwear style is a "puso"-printed insole and redesigned vulcanized sole for built-in comfort.
