Our Favorite Sneakers

When it comes to function and fashion in athletic footwear, it’s hard to beat New Balance, a 100-plus year old company that proudly makes its high quality shoes with utmost care and performance technology in the U.S.A. and offers a variety of widths, a departure from other brands.
At the New Balance at South Coast Plaza, we’re loving the newest look for women. The 696 is a sporty and chic retro shoe that features suede and mesh in on-trend colors like chambray with navy; suede with herringbone and other great color combinations. Some even feature sparkle elements.
New Balance pulled the 696 shoe from the style archives for its low-profile look and comfy fit that’s perfect to pair with skinny jeans, or even a skirt.
You'll love its sleek silhouette and the premium suede design — ideal for fall.
Open 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday; 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday; 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Sunday.
Level 3, South Coast Plaza, in the Crate & Barrel Wing. 714.434.9405.
