New Balance 991v2 “Kombu Green” U991GR2

It’s been a good year for fans of the New Balance 991v2. We recently learned that the next step in Sahele Bembury – New Balance will be via the lifestyle silhouette, following a series of 2024 GR looks that culminated in the New Balance “City Pack.” The latest 991v2 returns to the sober “dad shoe style” and takes on “Kombu Green” for FW24.

This is a made in the UK pair, meaning a similar luxe vibe is retained here as seen on the upcoming New Balance MADE in USA FW24 collection. Materials here are pigskin and premium, with woven “Kombu” overlays meeting teal hues underneath. Never straying too far from their typical neutral nerve center, New Balance creatives pair this cool shade up top with an ever-reliable mix of white, off-white, and grey underfoot.

The New Balance 991v2 “Kombu” releases this fall and retails for $250. You can get a better look at this release through the additional images included below and use our “Where to Buy” widget included upon arrival for direct shopping links.
