Made in USA 992 and Made in UK 991v2

To mark the grand opening of Kith Osaka, renowned brands Kith and New Balance have joined forces to create limited-edition versions of their popular Made in USA 992 and Made in UK 991v2 sneakers. These unique models boast exclusive color combinations designed specifically for this momentous event.

Design Details: A Fusion of Style and Craftsmanship

Both designs showcase a mesh upper accented by tasteful suede and leather details, demonstrating the exceptional craftsmanship that has become synonymous with the Kith and New Balance names. Special branding elements highlight the collaboration, with the Kith logo gracing the heel and a custom Kith for New Balance emblem adorning the sockliner.

Inspired by the Iconic: Paying Homage to the 1300JP Steel Blue

The Made in UK 991v2 style takes cues from the classic New Balance 1300JP Steel Blue, a beloved Japanese favorite since its initial release in 1985. Kith’s reimagined 991v2 features the Steel Blue color as a respectful tribute to the iconic sneaker and its enduring influence on Japanese street style.

Classic Color Palette: A Clean and Timeless Aesthetic

With a color palette of blue, white, and grey, the Kith x New Balance collaboration embodies a clean and timeless aesthetic that complements a wide array of styles and wardrobes. As Kith Osaka opens its doors, these special edition sneakers symbolize a fusion of heritage, innovation, and the continued influence of Japanese street culture on the world of fashion.
