New Balance 996 Distinct Retro Ski

Taking cues from vintage ski jackets and sweaters, our 996 Distinct Retro Ski captures winter style. Touches of Horween® leather are reminiscent of wooden skis, and the rich colors are just-right for cold days. Our Distinct Collection elevates your favorite retro New Balance sneakers with quality materials and a focus on rich leather accents. We source materials from the USA and craft these styles in our Maine factories.
