PRE-OWNED CONDITION PRESERVATION: MUSEUM-GRADE TWO-STAGE CONSERVATION PROTOCOL

The ultimate longevity of these collectible New Balance® 766 is ensured by a scientifically rigorous, two-step conservation process designed to eliminate the primary risk of vintage/deadstock sneakers: Polyurethane (PU) Hydrolysis, Mold, Mildew, and Rubber Oxidation, while maintaining the necessary material flexibility for potential future wear.

I. STAGE 1: INITIAL DEHUMIDIFICATION (The Pre-Drying Rescue Phase)

These New Balance® 766 undergo a critical week-long pre-drying phase where they are exposed to a dedicated 50g of 150°C-activated Silica Gel per each sneaker: the essential step for actively extracting the excess moisture absorbed by the materials (PU/EVA/ACTEVA/ACTEVA LIGHT/ACTEVA ULTRA-LIGHT/ENCAP/C-CAP/ABZORB/ABZORB SBS/ABZORB DTS/N-ERGY/REVLITE) over the decades, stabilizing them before RH-maintenance stage.

II. STAGE 2: OPTIMAL HUMIDITY MAINTENANCE METHOD (Maintenance Mode)

Following the pre-drying phase, the aggressive initial desiccant is removed to prevent over-drying and brittleness. The sneakers are then stored in the recycled cardboard box (non-airtight) to allow the materials to achieve a stable RH level (40% – 60%) necessary for material flexibility and potential future wear.

— PROTECTION LEVEL (BALANCE): This method prioritizes a balance between chemical preservation and physical flexibility, relying on the stable, controlled RH of the storage environment, to maintain a stable RH (40% – 60%) necessary for future wearing and long-term stability.

New Balance® 766 Running Shoes Techs And Features:

— Abzorb® is a blend of DuPont™ Engage® Isoprene rubber and proprietary foam materials utilized in the midsoles of New Balance shoes. Favored for its cushioning and compression set properties, Abzorb® is used internally in both the heel and forefoot.
Designed to absorb shock and displace energy, Abzorb® cushioning keeps athletes comfortable and protected from the rigors of impact.

— Acteva™ is a midsole cushioning technology that's designed to provide a soft, responsive ride. It's made of a blend of materials that are designed to absorb shock and return energy, helping you to feel more comfortable and energized as you run.
Acteva™ is 12% lighter than standard midsole foam, and utilizes DuPont™ Engage® for enhanced durability.

— ISS™ (Impact Shield System) is a lightweight, flexible layer that helps to protect the foot from impact. It's made of a durable polymer that's designed to absorb and disperse shock, reducing the risk of injury.

— Reflectors — A pair of large light reflectors on the outer toe and heel parts of the shoes, as well as central reflectors on the toe uppers and the heel counters, provide an additional level of safety on the roads during late evening and/or night runs.

— Ndurance™ is a outsole compound that's designed to provide durability and traction. It's made of a blend of materials that are designed to resist wear and tear, while also providing good grip on a variety of surfaces.

— Stability Web® is a medial post that's designed to provide support and stability. It's made of a rigid lightweight material that's designed to resist pronation, helping to keep your foot in alignment, thereby preventing twisting between the heel and toe parts, supports the arch of the foot, controls lateral displacements as you run.

— Sure Lace™ is a computer knit lace/chord designed with a reciprocating wave pattern that will not untie under high performance or inclement conditions. The Sure Lace™ lace’s design also provides the ability to variable lace (tight at the bottom of the throat-loose at the top) their shoe therefore providing optimal fit.

— T-S-2® (Transitional Support System) is a midsole cushioning technology that's designed to provide a soft, responsive ride. It's made of a blend of materials that are designed to absorb shock and return energy, helping you to feel more comfortable and energized as you run.
T-S-2® technology is made up of two different densities of foam that are molded together. The first density of foam is a soft, flexible foam that's designed to provide cushioning and comfort. The second density of foam is a firmer, more supportive foam that's designed to provide stability and control.
T-S-2® technology is strategically placed on the medial side of the foot, and it covers 35% of the width of a sneaker, which provides ideal support for the heel and arch, which can help to reduce pronation and improve stability.
