Now available in a versatile low-cut silhouette, the 417 Low is engineered for skaters who demand performance, durability, and a shoe that stands out from the crowd. This model expertly blends a classic, court-inspired aesthetic with modern skate-ready technology, making it the perfect choice for both demanding sessions at the park and everyday wear.
Drawing inspiration directly from Franky Villani’s distinctive worldview, these sneakers feature classic skate materials and carefully selected color palettes that tell a story. The low-profile design offers maximum ankle mobility, allowing for unrestricted movement and a more precise feel for your board. It’s a shoe built not just to perform, but to express individuality. Whether you´re a seasoned skater looking for your next reliable pair or a style enthusiast drawn to authentic, heritage-inspired footwear, the Franky Villani 417 Low delivers on all fronts. It’s a testament to New Balance Numeric´s commitment to creating footwear that supports the progression of skateboarding.
The core of the 417 Low´s performance lies in its thoughtful construction. For superior durability that withstands the rigors of modern skateboarding, the shoe is equipped with New Balance´s proprietary NDurance rubber outsole technology. This places highly resistant rubber in the most critical high-wear areas, such as the heel and forefoot, significantly extending the life of the shoe and ensuring you get maximum value and more sessions out of every pair. The foundation of any great skate shoe is its connection to the board, and the 417´s vulcanized sole provides exactly that. This classic construction method offers exceptional grip for confident control and a flexible, broken-in feel right out of the box, giving you the board feel needed to dial in your most technical tricks. It’s a design that offers the perfect balance of protection, flexibility, and direct feedback from your deck.
