There’s no press release like an Action Bronson press release. After giving you a detailed look at the Action Bronson New Balance 992 “Tiger Eye” from Action’s New York City pop-up back in April, we just got hit with the official presser cataloging what the next Action Bronson New Balance shoe is all about.
We know better than to try to match Action’s wordsmithing. Here’s what Baklava has to say:
“AS I SIT HERE ON MY HANDWOVEN RUG FROM ANCIENT PERSIA, FLYING DEEP INTO THE THIRTEENTH STEP OF MEDITATION, I ASK FOR PROTECTION, FOR GUIDANCE, FOR WISDOM.
I ASK NATURE TO PROVIDE ME WITH THE NOURISHMENT THAT MY BIOLOGICAL MACHINE NEEDS TO THRIVE. TO TAKE ME THROUGH THE HARSH WINTER, THROUGH THE DEAD OF SUMMER.
AS YOU HEAR THE GALLOPS THROUGH THE VILLAGE OF A HUNDRED HORSES AND A HUNDRED MEN WIELDING SWORDS, WE ASK FOR YOUR PROTECTION. BEHOLD THE TIGER’S EYE.”
That deeply nuanced state of being translates to one of the best New Balance collaborations of the year. Premium brown suede wraps an orange-and-blue mesh upper, while an all-black midsole lands underfoot. This is one of two Action Bronson 992s releasing in 2025, joined by a hot pink colorway dubbed “Digitalis Purpurea.” The New Balance 992 is one of the Boston brand’s most sought-after Made in USA models, championed notably by Apple visionary Steve Jobs.
As outlined above, the Action Bronson x New Balance 992 “Tiger Eye” drops through specializinginlife.com on September 18th at 10:00 AM EST. A larger release through New Balance and retailers is expected on September 26th. The sneaker commands a $250 retail price, about $50 more than standard general release styles. See detailed images below as anticipation builds.
