JJJJound can never stray too far away from the collaborations headlines because shortly after releasing its newest “Timeless Ape†team-up with BAPE, the Montreal-based design company has just announced its latest project with New Balance. After multiple leaks popped up during Fall ‘22, the duo’s JJJJound x New Balance 991 UK “Grey†has officially been revealed.
Aesthetically, this forthcoming pair isn’t too dissimilar to what we’ve seen from the two parties before. The uppers are guided by a dusted “Grey†suede which also served as the focal point for their inaugural New Balance 990v3 collaboration that dropped back in 2018 as well as one of their 992 installments that were launched in 2020. Its earth-toned presentation is then completed with lighter grey mesh underlays, sail-covered shoe strings and solid black N logos on the lateral and medial walls as well as New Balance 991 branding that resides on the tongues. Like the aforementioned 992s, JJJJound branding is positioned inside the heel windows as well as on the insoles. Furthermore, the kicks will come housed in a co-branded brown box and will be packaged with an extra set of black laces.
Expect the new collaboration to drop on Thursday, February 9 at 12 PM EDT via JJJJound and Friday, February 17 via New Balance.
