The 998 first entered the scene back in '93, and achieved innovative performance with the added bonus of a visually pleasing aesthetic. Constructed from a premium suede and mesh upper in sepia and Atlantic blue tones, the 998 was the first of its kind to host ABZORB tech in the heel and forefoot; a game-changing step forward for the Boston brand. N' logos take their place on the lateral and medial walls, while tongue and heel cap insignias polish off the Made in USA classic. U998OB. Colour: yellow
