We have said it before and we’ll say it again. New Balance continues to solidify their position as heavy hitters when the focus is collaborations. Intentional design elements mixed with premium materials is the perfect foundation for New Balance partnerships. With that said, footwear designer Salehe Bembury is back to make magic with the Boston-based brand. Salehe previously worked with New Balance to create one of the most coveted pairs last year with his ‘Peace Be The Journey’ 2002R silhouette. Did we mention that Salehe Bembury was also named 2020’s Footwear Designer of the Year?
The dynamic duo is back with another colorway of the New Balance 2002R and the internet has been buzzing. The theme for this iteration is ‘Water Be The Guide”, and features bold colors and a variety of materials. The standout pair starts with bright blue hairy suede overlays and mesh underlays. The New Balance 2002R is a sensory masterpiece that mixes leather and shearling accents. The signature N logo receives the shearling treatment while the mesh color tones takes inspiration from earth’s characteristics. Co-branding details lace the silhouette while NERGY foam maximizes your comfort level in each stride. Check out more snaps below.
