Boston, Mass., March 23, 2015 – New Balance has added two new styles to its women’s footwear offerings for spring 2015, the NBG1001 and NBG1004. Female golfers will enjoy the same style, comfort, and fit they are accustomed to from New Balance footwear, plus performance technologies designed to help enhance their golf game.
“The two new styles have received excellent reviews from our testers,” said Bruce Schilling, General Manager of Golf and Tennis for New Balance. “Their sleek styling combined with a lightweight, comfort-focused design makes either shoe perfect for women who enjoy walking the course.”

The REVLite® 4mm drop* midsole provides lightweight cushioning and premium responsiveness while an Ortholite® insole provides cool, dry comfort close to the foot. The dual density integrated spikeless outsole provides traction and maintains the shoe’s minimal profile. The NBG1001 weighs just 6.7 ounces and is available in two colorways; grey with a hologram insert and white with grey highlights in sizes 6 -11, B and D widths in the grey and B width in the white for a suggested retail of $89.95.

The NBG1004 is built on a New Balance SL-2 last and features a premium waterproof leather upper and a REVLite® 10mm drop* midsole. The outsole is made of NDurance, a rubber compound for maximum durability in high wear areas and uses the Champ® Slim-Lok® Zarma®** Tour cleat system. The NBG1004 weighs just 8.9 ounces and is available in a white colorway with subtle grey and pink accents in sizes 6 -11, B width for a suggested retail of $119.95.
