Klutch Athletics continues its partnership with New Balance with the introduction of a new collaborative iteration of the AC Runner training silhouette, first teased by Klutch founder Rich Paul.

The collaborative AC Runner arrives with a breathable black mesh upper and printed dotted wave-like graphics in sleek silver. Its signature Fresh Foam X midsole and added Stability Rails provide the pair with versatility and maximum comfort. As opposed to the debut AC Runner, which sported a more colorful palette, Rich Paul’s take on the silhouette adds a darker touch for subtle everyday wear.

There is also a blue iteration of the Klutch Athletics x New Balance AC Runner, made available earlier this year during NBA All-Star Weekend exclusively for friends and family.

Alongside the AC Runner, Klutch Athletics and New Balance are also releasing a 17-piece performance apparel collection, available in men’s and women’s sizing. The first drop is available now on klutch.com.

The Klutch Athletics x New Balance AC Runner drops on April 2nd via newbalance.com, klutch.com, and select retailers. Check them out below.
