This is a skate-specific version of the original NB clay court tennis shoes first debuted in the 1970s. Modern additions like a dual-layer suede ollie area enhances durability. A polyurethane insert absorbs impacts and provides a consistent fit. The Pro Court 212 retains the same relaxed fit of the original with an updated construction for everyday skating.

Vulcanized - “Vulc” shoes are light, flexible and break in quickly. These don't provide as much foot protection as cupsoles, but they are preferred if you’re looking for good board feel in a shoe with less weight and bulk.
Details
Multi-Layered Toe Cap - Multiple layers adds durability so you can skate your new shoes even longer.
Ndurance® Rubber Outsole - Ndurance® is a highly durable rubber compound that increases the lifespan of this shoe's outsole.

Not great for actual skating

New Balance Numeric 212 Skate Shoes - black/white
My son is a skateboarder and thought these shoes would be made for that. The shoelaces broke day 1. There is an extra set so we made it through a few days before ALL laces were trashed. Shoes are great though.

New Balance Numeric 213 Mid Skate Shoes - black/black
I have the 212 low tops in addition to these, and they're the only shoes I'll buy for actually skating. The support is great, the grip and board feel are excellent. These are real skate shoes, not fashion shoes. They are true to size.

New Balance Numeric 212 Skate Shoes - peach/white
The New Balance Numeric 212 Skate Shoe is where rubber meets the road: This ultra-sturdy skate shoe provides maximum comfort and support; It gives you a natural feel without being too tight. Important: These shoes are super-true to size, so order your natural diameter. If you are a 2E, like me, the NB# 212 is the perfect choice
