UPDATE 20/11/23: It looks like the ‘Pickle Beet’ 991v2 offering isn’t alone. In recent imagery shared by Patta itself, we have a close up look at a second Patta x New Balance sneaker, this time flexing a forest green ‘Sea Moss’ palette. Featuring the same fluorescent accents within the midsole and laces as its counterpart – we must say, we’re into it.
Both the Patta x New Balance 991v2 ‘Pickle Beet’ & ‘Sea Moss’ are set to drop exclusively at PATTA on FRIDAY 1ST DECEMBER. NEW BALANCE & SELECTED RETAILERS will stock ‘Pickle Beet’ from 8TH DECEMBER without its green counterpart, which will only be available through Patta channels. Follow the banner below for stockists…
ORIGINAL ARTICLE 13/11/23: Since the announcement of the inaugural 991v2 at the start of October, New Balance aren’t planning on slowing down, with an all-new collab on the cards. Of course, the model’s debut is a pretty hard one to follow, collaborating with the likes of Stone Island to deliver a streamlined utilitarian creation. Extremely well received by sneaker connoisseurs and casual wearers alike, the stakes are pretty high for what’s next. But if anyone can attempt to raise the bar, it’s Dutch streetwear label, Patta. Enter, the Patta x New Balance 991v2 Made in UK. Let’s get into it.
Paying homage to the impeccable quality and style that both contributors possess in abundance, the ‘Pickle Beat’ iteration expresses a dynamic palette of grey, plum and neon lime. Taking notes from the alliance’s previous 990v3 collaboration, the fluorescent hue strikes again within the laces and midsole segments across both offerings. A silvery grey mesh forms a breathable base, overlaid with premium pigskin suede, emphasising the luxury steez. Looking towards the ‘Sea Moss’ colourway, plum hues are replaced for that of a tonal emerald green hue. These kicks are clearly in a league of their own, providing stealthy style and unparalleled quality. What else would we expect from a duo so reputable?
