About New Balance 1400
A premium runner from the 1990s
The New Balance 1400 was released in the mid-1990s as one of the brand’s better running shoes. The upper combines soft suede with mesh, with the large N in a contrasting color on the side. The lines are sleek and neat, more premium than ruggedly sporty, and that’s exactly why the model later became so popular outside of running.
ENCAP underfoot
The cushioning centers on ENCAP: an EVA core enclosed by a firmer polyurethane ring. That construction combines softness with support and keeps the sole in shape longer than foam alone. It’s the technology that gives the 1400 its stable, cushioned ride and immediately marks it as a serious New Balance.
From running shoe to cult model
The 1400 became a favorite among enthusiasts, partly thanks to versions made in the United States and the United Kingdom, and the subject of sought-after collaborations. The restrained, premium look makes the model easy to pair and explains why it keeps returning decades later.
