The new store will stock the brand’s full range of shoes, clothing and accessories, including outlet store exclusives. It will also offer a professional fitting service, with guests able to have their gait tested to find their perfect performance shoe. To celebrate the opening, the first 50 guests to spend over £100 received a free New Balance cap.
Yvonne Clay, Centre Director at Gunwharf Quays, said: “New Balance is a brand that our guests have told us they were keen to shop at Gunwharf Quays for some time, and we’re excited to be finally welcoming them to our retail line-up.”
Gunwharf Quays has also recently welcomed the opening of the Pompey FC pop-up store which will be open until January as well as Crocs and Columbia.
