Original Story (08/09/24): Salehe Bembury has revealed yet another collaboration with New Balance, this time on the MADE in UK 991v2.
While out in Copenhagen for Fashion Week, Bembury held a pop-up where he gave away 200 pairs of his upcoming New Balance 530. The footwear designer also used the opportunity to debut his next project, wearing the never-before-seen 991v2 at the event.
The shoe features a purple suede upper with pops of green on the sockliner, blue on the tongue, orange on the heel and midsole, and yellow on the outsole. Salehe Bembury branding appears on the tongue, while the designer’s signature fingerprint motif appears on the cut-out windows on the heels.
