New Balance does not use pig skin in its footwear. The company primarily uses synthetic materials and leather from cows, sheep, and goats for its shoe construction.
Here are some of the materials New Balance uses:
- Synthetic materials: These materials are commonly used in the construction of New Balance sneakers, including mesh, nylon, and polyurethane.
- Leather: New Balance uses genuine leather from cows, sheep, and goats in some of its higher-end footwear models.
- Suede: Suede, a type of leather, is also used in some New Balance footwear models.
While New Balance does not use pig skin, other brands may use it in their footwear. It's always a good idea to check the materials list on a shoe's label or website to know exactly what it's made from.
