When rumours of the JJJJound x New Balance 993 collaboration began circulating late last year, sneakerheads everywhere started buzzing. The Montreal-based label has made a name for itself with its minimalist yet impactful designs, and for its first-ever take on the 993 silhouette, expectations were sky-high. Thankfully, JJJJound and New Balance did not disappoint, delivering not just one but two colourways. Today, we’re diving into the first of the two: the timeless Classic Grey.
The New Balance 993 in Classic Grey is the epitome of understated sophistication. Its upper features a Military Urban Grey mesh base, giving it a subtle texture that blends seamlessly with the pigskin suede overlays. The tonal grey palette is quintessential New Balance, iconic and endlessly versatile. Black accents punctuate the design, offering just the right amount of contrast without detracting from its refined aesthetic.
True to New Balance’s heritage, this pair isn’t just about looks. The midsole is packed with Abzorb cushioning, delivering unparalleled comfort and responsiveness whether you’re pounding the pavement or making a style statement. The beefy build of the 993 gives it a chunky, retro appeal while ensuring durability and support.
Of course, no JJJJound collaboration would be complete without their signature branding. Their minimalist serif marque graces the heel, a subtle nod to the Montreal-based label’s design ethos. And let’s not forget the “Made in USA” tag on the tongue, a proud testament to the premium craftsmanship that New Balance is known for.
