1954R Black / Black

Same silhouette as the 204V Fan Blue, different energy. In the Neo Flame / Black / Black Cement colorway, New Balance's laceless Mary Jane adopts a summery and assertive palette: Neo Flame—a vivid, saturated orange-red, evocative of a flame or a sunset—covers the premium suede of the main overlays. Black structures the secondary areas and the strap, while Black Cement—a mottled cement-grey characteristic of premium soles—closes the ensemble as the outsole.

This is the most energetic colorway of the 204V launch, and also the one that best highlights the tension between the technical construction of 70s and 2000s running, which inspired the silhouette, and the casual look of a laceless summer shoe. The unique Mary Jane strap crosses the top of the foot for support without constraint. The lightweight EVA midsole and the outsole with 2000s strike paths + 70s tread complete a proposition as original in its concept as in its color.
