In a recent Instagram post, Lindor talks all about it, especially how style meets performance. But most importantly, he highlights his personality and values, ”I have been blessed, I have a lot of people who have helped me throughout my career and I want to give it back.

As per Pat Cassidy, New Balance’s Global Director of Consumer Brand Marketing, “From when we first started working with Francisco back in 2016, he has been part of a select few members of our athlete partner family that we consider our face of brand athletes. I would consider Francisco one of the founding fathers of the new generation of these “face of the brand athletes.” The 29-Year-Old, Mr. Smile has proved that he approached this collaboration with a different perspective.
