New Balance‘s fall collection of Made in USA sneakers will kick off midway through August with the 993 and two colorways for the 990v6.
New Balance gave a broader preview for the fall assortment, which is designed by Aimé Leon Dore founder Teddy Santis, on Thursday through a series of Instagram stories. New colorways for the 990v4, 998 and 997 will also release in the coming months, as well as additional 993 and 990v6 colorways, although release dates have not yet been announced.
The first drop of sneakers places an emphasis on neutral tones, as the 990v6 drops in two grey and white colorways with hits of cream on their midsoles. The “Marblehead” variant is predominantly white with hits of grey throughout, while the “Castlerock” edition is more grey-forward with several different shades. A 993 in “Shadow Grey/Driftwood” then pairs grey suede with two different shades of brown forming the mesh and leather overlays.
Alongside the sneakers, New Balance will also drop a fresh capsule of Made in USA hoodies, sweatshirts and sweatpants.
The Made in USA line, which Santis took over as creative director in 2021, makes use of more premium materials and features at least 70 percent of its production in the States.
Later on, the 993 will return with more colorful renditions in green/purple/orange and brown/purple/orange. The 997 and 998 will each come in duos, the former of which will be available in green/brown and grey/cream and the latter in khaki/yellow and blue. Also to come is a tonal cream 990v4 and two more 990v6s playing with burgundy.
The New Balance Made in USA 990v6 “Marblehead” and “Castlerock” and 993 “Shadow Grey/Driftwood” will release August 15 through New Balance’s website and select third-party retailers. Pricing for the “Marblehead” is set at $200 and the other two sneakers $220.
