New Balance has long been celebrated for its dedication to craftsmanship, mainly its Made in UK Collections, synonymous with quality and heritage. In 2024, the spotlight shines on the New Balance 991v2 Made in UK, a refined iteration of the classic 991 model that has garnered acclaim from sneakerheads and casual wearers alike. Following up on collabs with Danielle Cathari, Patta, and Stone Island, the Flimby factory introduces the Blue Silver colorway, further enriching the storied legacy of New Balance's UK-made lineup.
Coming in a similar palette to the Yeezy 700 Faded Azure, the New Balance 991v2 Made in UK Blue Silver boasts a blend of premium pigskin suede, nubuck, and mesh across its upper, presenting a sophisticated palette of blue hues accented by subtle pops of crimson. The lighter blue shades grace the mudguard, midfoot, and heel, while darker blue overlays add depth and contrast around the collar and midfoot. Grey elements envelop the base mesh, the iconic N logo, and the lace set, harmoniously tying the design together. The silhouette's aesthetic is further elevated by a two-tone grey and cream midsole, featuring dashes of crimson that inject vibrancy into the overall look. A black rubber outsole rounds off the design, ensuring durability and traction.
The New Balance 991v2 Made in UK Blue Silver will release in March 2024 through New Balance and select retailers online and in-store. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $250.
