New Balance’s Flimby factory and its “Made in” enterprises have always been celebrations of material quality. It’s only fitting that said mission has led them to Harris Tweed’s doorstep before, teaming up with the Scottish manufacturing imprint in 2015 for a 991 and in 2021 for a two-pack that added the 1500. As Harris enjoys a busy few years that’s brought link-ups with Nike and Vans, it’s about time for the sequel; NB comes knocking with Harris Tweed overhauls of the New Balance Allerdale and another New Balance 991.
Both pairs featured here essentially share the same color-blocking, in which tumbled black leather handles the top overlays before textured houndstooth in brown and tan takes over the foundation of either. More than anything, this is another moment where we can note the shifting priorities for the Made in UK empire. Though the New Balance 991 appears in both this delivery and the 2021 effort, it was functionally retired in the time between those two executions. The New Balance Allerdale, a far newer face by contrast, is cresting as a member of the Flimby family, adding another British mainstay to its collab roster that already includes Drake’s London.
The New Balance Allerdale and 991 in this “Luxe Tweed” collection release on November 20th, retailing for $250 and $280, respectively.
