Olive Suede is the Overarching Theme For the Next New Balance Made in USA Collections
New Balance's Made in USA collection, under the stewardship of Teddy Santis from Aime Leon Dore, has continually raised the bar for both craftsmanship and style, soaring into its third season. With the dawn of Santis’ Season 4 lineup, the collection welcomes two fresh offerings in an irresistible "Olive" hue: the iconic 990v4 and its sibling silhouette, the 998.
These models blend function and fashion, both destined to be autumn essentials for 2023. Made with a premium combination of mesh, pigskin suede, and leather, they epitomize durability while ensuring utmost comfort. The Olive Green base is the primary shade, elegantly counterbalanced with Tan accents gracing the toe, midfoot, and collar, adding depth to the overall aesthetic.
The 990v4 maintains its celebrated design, with the unmistakable White “N” logos on the sides and the revered Made in USA branding marking the tongue and heel. On the other hand, the 998 mirrors this classic detailing with its own spin, boasting a like-for-like green mesh upper and tonal suede overlay set. The 998 also incorporates luxurious tan leather underlays, white-on-cream midfoot N motifs, and a sole unit that seamlessly blends black, white, and the signature olive, making it a perfect counterpart to the 990v4 in this collection.
Both shoes sit proudly atop a pristine White midsole, complemented by a robust Black rubber outsole, creating a pair of timeless classics. Whether you're a New Balance purist or a fan of Santis’ genius, these shoes are a testament to impeccable design and flawless execution.
A NewBalance.com release has been confirmed fo the duo for October 26th.
