New Balance 993 "Sea Salt" New Balance 993 "Sea Salt" Purchased from: New Balance Official Online Store Size: 29cm Supervised by creative director Teddy Santis of ""Made in USA"". The "991," equipped with the shock-absorbing material "ABZORB," was released in 2001, followed by the "992," which featured "ABZORB SBS," commemorating New Balance's 100th anniversary five years later. This model is a seasonal colorway of the "993," which blends elements of the "991" and "992" designs. ★ I set the price at the minimum amount, as some people don't buy after price negotiations.
