The New Balance 999 has enjoyed a strong couple of years, and we can trace a good deal of that momentum here in the states to a genius pairing of two of New England’s best. NB hooked up with CNCPTS to create the sailing-inspired ‘Kennedy’ and history was made as these pushed a New Bal collabo into the 2011 SOTY discussion. The expectations are high now that we know a follow-up is planned for an August 4th release, and with the promo materials for this ‘Seal Narrative Capsule’, we can expect a highly detailed ultra-deluxe package with potential emphasis on more earthy tones, but this time with a neon boost. Whatever the design shall be, stick with Sneaker News for photos and update and let us know if you think Concepts can top last April’s instant classic.
Could not grab the Kennedys even though i have every other NB made just about, the 999 is sooo ugly. It was an ok colorway though.
Copped the Kennedy's, and I'm copping these.
