New Balance’s Made in UK umbrella is currently on a collaboration roll, especially with its newly-introduced 991v2 silhouette. Since the Flimby-based factory unveiled the sneaker — with a video that took the shoe from England to Italy — the silhouette has been reworked by Stone Island and now, it’s preparing a fresh release with streetwear powerhouse, Patta.<\/p>\n
The all-new Patta x New Balance collaboration welcomes two colorways of “Sea Moss,” which is a combination of dark green and grey, and “Pickle Beet,” a pleasant mixture of dark purple and grey. Both sneakers are built on a combination of reverence for the original and excitement of a new execution.<\/p>\n
Design-wise, Patta has embraced the technical evolution of the classic 991 silhouette, complementing the shoe with nubuck, leather, and mesh across the upper, while a rubberized surface hits both iterations. Additionally, the sneakers are accented at the outsole and midsole with a fluorescent shade of yellow, which highlights the new features, FuelCell, and re-engineered ABZORB SBS pods.<\/p>\n
Both shoes are then hit with a slew of reflective details which come alongside a Patta script P. Rounding off the designs, a metallic silver tongue badge is introduced with tonal co-branding on the lateral sides and heel counter.<\/p>\n
You can take a closer look at the Patta x New Balance 991v2 collaboration above — which features a campaign fronted by UK rap star, Saint\u00e9 — and they will be available to shop from December 1 at 1 p.m. CEST on the official Patta website as well as on the Patta mobile app and in-store at Patta Amsterdam, Patta London and Patta Milan.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, the “Sea Moss” iteration is exclusively available via Patta, while the “Pickle Beet” will be available via the official New Balance website and select retail locations.<\/p>\n
