Matt Varga If New Balance’s inline catalog, including shoes like the 1906R, 1890, or 204L, is where Boston designers get the chance to run wild and test out new aesthetics, the Made in USA and Made in UK brands are metronome-like. The overall quality and consistency shown in both their Flimby and homefront factories are fan favorites for a reason, and the American company has kept on keeping on when it comes to issuing subtle but fresh colorway innovations across the stables of both lines.
As we’ve surely mentioned before, the New Balance 991v2 has jumped out to become a face of the MiUK effort, and assuredly its most premium execution. Though the retail price is now flirting with the $300 mark, purchasers can be assured that they’ll receive the height of materiality and overall construction in return. If you’ve truly got it like that or are yet to test out what New Balance Made in UK products bring to the table, the New Balance 991v2 now issues an all-brown edition as autumn looms, furthering a nocturnal all-around look with dark grey branding and sole units.
This New Balance 991v2 is listed at retailers like atmos for an August 18th release date, though no official New Balance channels have followed suit just yet. Generally, expect an August drop with the standard $270 applied.
