Fresh off the heels of their “Virginia Is For Lovers” collaboration, DTLR adds a new chapter to its robust New Balance catalog with their first-ever project around the 90/60 silhouette.

Since its debut in 2022, the 90/60 has captured the hearts of the contemporary sneakerhead demo, bridging the gap between retro footwear and modern instinct with thoughtful Y2K-ready design applications. DTLR applies a night-ready colorway with three shades of grey covering the suede and sport mesh panels, while touches of black and a high-vis infrared accent the rest of the construction. The laces and interior lining offer up a contrast with a night-vis green, matching the exterior heel piece.

Where this collaboration shines is the touches is the glow-in-the-dark capability; the entirety of the outsole, from the toe to the heel as well as the sections beneath the sculpted pods brightens with a neon green at night, as does the slanted-N logo on the lateral side. Combined with the comfort-engineered midsole unit that boasts ABZORB and SBS foam, this DTLR x New Balance 90/60 is perfect for late-night activity.

DTLR confirms an official release date of June 16th for this collaboration, available in both men’s and grade-school sizing; see the official photos ahead and stay tuned for a release.
