Roland returns to the sneaker stage through New Balance Numeric’s collaboration with Tiago Lemos, offering a second edition of the 808 Lite shoe to commemorate 808 Day.
This 2025 version channels the aesthetic of Roland’s iconic TR-808, blending music heritage with skate ingenuity.
Dressed primarily in black suede, mesh and leather, the upper is accented with vibrant orange, red and yellow gradient touches, including on the bold Numeric “N” logo.
A small embroidered “Rhythm Composer” tag marks the heel, and the laces are trimmed with a detachable Roland drum-machine keychain and patch, adding collectible appeal and narrative depth.
Designed with skateboard performance in mind, the 808 Lite features FuelCell midsole cushioning for spring, a translucent NDurance rubber sole engineered for grip, and insights from Tiago himself on durability and board feel.
