New Balance 996 Storm Ash

After taking part in the Grey Day 2023 festivities, the timeless New Balance 996 celebrates its 35th anniversary with a two-pack collection. The cult classic sneaker is one of the most underrated pairs among the 99X series, often released in exclusive collaborations and limited quantities. Joining the “Vintage Indigo” rendition, this New Balance 996 “Storm Ash” showcases the Boston-based brand’s signature grey colourway.

Like the NB 576, the New Balance 996 receives a well-deserved tribute by getting new colourways. Both silhouettes turned 35 this 2023, and the brand honours them with anniversary-edition styles. This “Storm Ash” rendition serves up New Balance’s iconic greyscale colour scheme with a traditional mesh and pigskin suede construction. The signature N logo appears as a hang tag on the lateral panel, covering the embroidered NB branding, while the medial side remains blank. Vintage-inspired aesthetics make up the ENCAP midsole, flaunting yellowish details to achieve a throwback look. The black rubber outsole maintains its form, wrapping up the classic ‘80s design of these kicks.
