Coinciding with the re-opening of Kith’s West Hollywood flagship store, the brand linked up with New Balance to release four Made in USA pairs, including the one I’m reviewing today. The 990 V4 in “Dusty Mauve” is built using a mesh base, pigskin suede overlays, and reflective details – all in a mature and wearable colour palette. Check out my in-depth review for a proper breakdown and to see them on feet!
Amsterdam based boutique, Patta, recently dropped their latest New Balance collaboration with the 990 V3. Part of the “Keep Your Family Close” collection, this Made in USA sneaker features an olive pigskin coloured suede, bold lime green nubuck overlays, and grey hits. Check out my review to get a closer look and to see how they are on feet! Was this a cop or a drop for you?
My part 2 video of “Grey Day” 2019 is here! In addition to the Sport model reviewed in my Part 1 video, New Balance Canada also sent me a pair of the NB 997 featuring the removed iconic N logo. A bit of a strange departure visually, but still Made in USA and featuring exceptional quality materials, is this a cop or drop for you guys?
