When most people hear the name New Balance the sport that usually comes to mind is running, but for many years they also pumped out basketball shoes. The BB850 was a decent looking pair of kicks that featured a Stability web for lightweight support, an ABZORB Heel and Forefoot for light weight cushioning, a C-Cap midsole for light cushioning and flexibility and last but not least a leather upper. If you can track down a pair in your size today they are more than likely wearable and lighter than your homeboy’s Lebron X’s (BB850 weighed 15.75 OZ 9.5 mens).
