What’s New Balance’s favourite colour? Grey. Which is why the Boston-based brand invites us to celebrate Grey Day, a special day in the calendar to honour the shade and to unveil grey silhouettes that keep the truly timeless tone and legacy alive. Grey is more than just a colour to New Balance, its part of its heritage. A bold design decision back in the ‘80s for runners, it went against the status quo of box-fresh white, creating the blueprint for normcore styles to come.
As part of the four-shoe line-up is this 990v6 MADE in USA rendition with a muted palette letting Teddy Santis’ signature suede and mesh tooling come to the forefront. Smooth pigskin overlays frame navy underlays and “N” logos while mesh peeks out at the toe and collar. Contrasting the shadowy shade is performance updates with a creamy FuelCell midsole cushioning every step. Neutral yet impactful, they showcase the limitless possibilities of grey.
