Vintage New Balance Iridescent Holographic Softshell Fleece Jacket

An absolute banger of a techwear find from New Balance. This performance hooded softshell jacket delivers an incredible futuristic, cyber-grunge vibe, featuring a massive vertical iridescent holographic "New Balance" spellout running straight down the main zipper flap. The iridescent theme continues with high-visibility reflective bands around the sleeves and a sharp metallic "NB" badge stamped on the left cuff.

Built for both style and high-end durability, the outer face is a weather-resistant stretch performance softshell, while the interior is lined with a super cozy, insulated heather gray microfleece layer. It is the ultimate sleek, high-visibility piece for layering into modern techwear or athletic gorpcore wardrobes.

Condition Report

• Overall Condition: Good Vintage Condition (with Authentic Athletic Character)

• Condition Note: This jacket is structurally rock-solid with a perfectly working heavy zipper, strong seams, and an ultra-soft interior lining.

• Flaws/Notes: To maintain total transparency, please note a few minor cosmetic imperfections typical of a pre-loved activewear piece:

  • Logo Graphics: The front holographic chest lettering shows some minor, isolated edge-lifting on a few letters (clearly inspected under a pen tip in photos). When laying flat and un-stretched, the letters sit flat and the lifting is virtually invisible (can easily be tacked down with a drop of fabric glue).

  • Fabric & Cuffs: There are a couple of faint, light surface spot marks near the lower back hem and sleeve panel (circled in red in photos). Additionally, the wrist cuff edges show some mild, natural cosmetic darkening from activewear handling, which may lighten up significantly with a standard cold spot-wash treatment.
