If Y2K dial-up energy and smooth kickflips had a baby, it’d be the Bronze 56K x New Balance Numeric 480. This isn’t just any skate shoe—it’s a throwback with New Balance comfort and Bronze 56K’s chaotic NYC edge. Now that’s a collab we didn’t know we needed.
Dressed in sleek black leather with hits of metallic copper and deep bronze, the 480 gets a glow-up. The shiny “N” logo pops like an AOL loading screen (ask your older cousin), while gold eyelets and branding seal the deal. Unlike your internet connection from 2001, these are built to perform—grippy soles, padded collars, and street credibility guaranteed.
Bronze 56K has skated across brands like Reebok and DC, but this is their first kickflip into the NB Numeric lineup. The result is a mix of rugged performance and ironic flair, perfect for anyone who shreds, stunts, or just wants to look like they do. It’s serious skate tech, with a side of “don’t take me too seriously.”
Launching May 19, 2025, the Bronze 56K x New Balance Numeric 480 will hit select skate retailers and NewBalance.com for $120 USD.
Whether you’re landing tre flips or scrolling nostalgia memes, these skate shoes deliver all the attitude. Just be ready to explain what 56K actually means.
