New Balance’s foray into performance basketball has seen the Boston-based footwear label sign a variety of NBA players, and Tyrese Maxey is one of the latest. His impressive stats this season placed him among the elite players in the league and earned him his first All-Star appearance. When Maxey takes the court during All-Star Weekend, expect to see him rocking the latest colorway of the TWO WXY v4, dubbed Gamer.
The New Balance TWO WXY v4 Gamer draws heavy inspiration from the vibrant world of retro gaming, specifically ‘90s gaming culture, by incorporating a multi-color upper that echoes the RGB color schemes in classic video games. The sneaker features a mesh upper for breathability and TPU overlays for added durability, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of intense gameplay. The "Press Start" tag on the vamp further immerses wearers in the gaming theme, while the rainbow color scheme on the outsole adds a playful pop of color. Below the foot, a split sole design incorporates Fresh Foam X and FuelCell cushioning, providing a perfect blend of comfort and responsiveness for dynamic movements.
The New Balance TWO WXY v4 Gamer will release on February 15, 2024, through New Balance and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $120.
