New Balance North Shore opened in 1995 in downtown Highland Park. At the time, the concept of devoting an entire store to only the New Balance brand was entirely novel and unproven. Yet owners Allen Adelman and Larry Gershberg, both loyal fans of New Balance since the 1980’s, knew that customers would appreciate and patronize a beautiful, comfortable, service-oriented store which exclusively showcased the wonderful assortment of footwear and apparel products offered by New Balance. They were right, and as they say, the rest is history.
While there are many other New Balance concept stores all over the country now, New Balance North Shore is consistently regarded as one of the premiere destinations in the USA.
