For 2024 we present the latest limited-edition UP THERE New Balance, featuring a new model, new concept and all-new features.
Eschewing regular 2000’s tropes, the release plays with colour tone in order to create a unique palette from familiar hues. The 860v2—once a flagship New Balance on-road trainer—is reinvented for the fashion market. We wanted to celebrate colour on this release and so we packed them with a suite of perfectly-shaded tones in acid green, periwinkle blue, blossom pink and copper brown.
Much like colours, the material selection presents a twist on commonplace choices. Metallic panels are replaced with synthetic nubuck and reflective print, whilst double-layer mesh is accented by neoprene and technical fabrics, giving a contemporary edge.
UP THERE hallmarks include the ‘Sure Lace’—returning in three colours. Back again is the lace shroud—designed with a waterproof zip, giving the shoe a retro-futuristic look.
Each pair comes with a custom tote made from rip-stop nylon, which packs into itself.
