New Balance began as a Boston-based
arch support company in the early 1900's, developed into a specialized shoe manufacturer in the 1970's, and has grown to become a leading global
athletic products company. Today New Balance is a family of brands including New Balance, Dunham, PF Flyers, Aravon, Warrior and Brine. Since the days of selling arch supports to police officers and waiters, New Balance has been a brand concerned with meeting the needs of the everyday athlete. In pursuing this goal, New Balance developed an "Endorsed By No One" philosophy, which holds that a superior product will sell itself better than any superstar athlete ever could. Part of producing superior footwear and
athletic apparel is manufacturing it to fit all widths and sizes, because a better fit produces better performance. To ensure the best fitting, best performing shoes and
apparel, New Balance focuses on improving technology and production methods. A big part of that is maintaining five manufacturing facilities in the United States where they continue to produce shoes and
apparel that meet the standards New Balance has employed for 100 years. New Balance has also remained commited to a core set of values that include integrity, teamwork and total customer satisfaction.
