Boston-based activewear giant New Balance is continuously expanding its portfolio, especially in popular sports like basketball and football. As part of its football catalog, the company recently introduced New Balance Fortress football boots in "Black / Metallic Gold" colorway.

The description of the upcoming New Balance Fortress football boots in "Black / Metallic Gold" on the brand’s site reads,

"The modern era has redefined what speed means on the gridiron. It’s not just about backfield burners with flashy 40-yard dash times. The unique combination of size, strength, speed, and football IQ required by players inside the box demands an exceptional shoe."

It further continues,

"The all-new Fortress football cleat is built for the game’s most intense battles. Superior performance, comfort, and fit are engineered for players who get off the line faster, fire off the edge and get into the backfield, and pick up blitzes. Disruption starts with thinking one step ahead."

The predominantly black base of the sneaker model is complemented by metallic gold accents throughout. The toe caps of these pairs feature a solid black surface, combined with similar eyelets and tongue flaps. These eyelets are completed with speckled black lace sets sitting on top.

The lace dubrae and collar regions of the cleats are adorned with metallic gold NB logos. Following this, a large-sized N insignia of the brand is positioned on the lateral sides.

On the inner side, the sockliner is also covered in similar black hues. The heel counters of the cleats are equipped with pull tabs that make it convenient to hang. The midfoot offers stability, as mentioned by NB, stating,

"Cleat configuration is designed to provide midfoot stability and multi-directional traction on grass and artificial surfaces."

Completing these boots are the sole units featuring advanced FuelCell embedded midsole and outsole components. While the midsole is colored black, the outer sole unit boasts a metallic gold hue. Loaded with spikes, this sole unit claims to enhance traction on the field.

These football cleats are built with FuelCell technology, as emphasized by the brand,

"A FuelCell sockliner insert leverages our nitrogen-infused foam, which provides a propulsive feeling of energy return as the athlete drives off the cushioning platform."

As stated by the brand, the superior performance of these cleats is facilitated by,

"Lightweight, strategically placed support throughout the upper provides ankle stability and protection."

Set your reminders for the upcoming release of the New Balance Fortress football boots in "Black / Metallic Gold" colorway, hitting the shelves next month. New Balance enthusiasts and curious readers are advised to stay in touch with the brand's website for timely alerts regarding their arrival.
