The New Balance 991v2 MIUK “Gold Earth” arrives as one of the more refined entries in the Made in UK line, drawing on the quiet luxury and grounded palettes that have come to define the 991’s second generation.
This edition leans into a warm, mineral-rich colour story. Soft golden hues sit against muted earthy tones, giving the silhouette a depth that feels rooted in the landscapes surrounding New Balance’s Flimby factory. It’s a palette that feels lived-in rather than loud, the sort of colourway that grows better with wear.
Premium suede and mesh form the bulk of the upper, each panel cut and assembled with the meticulous finish that defines Made in UK craftsmanship. The modernised midsole, the key evolution of the v2, introduces a smoother ride underfoot without disturbing the 991’s iconic shape. Small reflective accents break through the warmer tones, ensuring the shoe keeps that unmistakable NB identity even in low light.
The “Gold Earth” edition ultimately feels like a masterclass in balance: functional without losing its luxury edge, modernised without compromising heritage, understated yet undeniably elevated.
