New Balance associates around the globe gathered to celebrate “Grey Days” — a celebration of the connection between our heritage and the enduring legacy of our signature color. Decked out in their finest NB “groutfits” (grey outfits), associates enjoyed refreshments, photo booths, raffles, and screenings of our “Grey Days” short film. Grey brings us together.

New Balance associates across the globe came together to celebrate Lunar New Year. In China, associates gathered for lunch and received red envelopes and red shoelaces which signify togetherness. In Boston, Asiatic Voices (our North American Associate Resource Group) hosted a traditional Lion Dance for all to enjoy at New Balance HQ, followed by a lunch and learn where associates shared and presented on how Lunar New Year is celebrated in their cultures and homes. Wishing everyone prosperity and happiness in the year of the dragon!
