You know that autumn is on the horizon when heritage running brands like New Balance start tooling with material mock-ups like tweed. This near-monochromatic creation found atop the New Balance 990 marks a shift in seasons thanks to the heavier herringbone-inclined textile usually found on your grandfather’s sport coat. A premium teal suede highlights most of the panels while a dark obsidian lands on the heel and iconic ‘N’ logo in leather. The tweed hits fill the voids found in the rest of the shoe for an interesting take on one of the brand’s oft-forgotten classics recently undergoing a revamp (you should also check out the Mid-Century Modern Collection to see more of the 990s premium capabilities).
