New Balance footwear collaborations

Overview

New Balance has expanded its footwear portfolio through diverse collaborations involving both luxury fashion and specialized performance sectors.

In partnership with Miu Miu, the brand released the 530 SL Mary Jane, a hybrid shoe that combines the technical foundation of the New Balance 530 running sneaker with ballerina aesthetics. The design utilizes ABZORB cushioning and a rubber sole to provide shock absorption and arch support, offering a functional alternative to traditional leather-soled ballet flats. The collaboration includes colorways such as monochrome brown and white.

Additionally, New Balance has engaged in a collaboration with professional skater Jamie Foy for the New Balance Numeric line. This sneaker is designed for skateboarding performance and urban style, featuring a retro aesthetic inspired by the 1980s and 1990s and constructed with leather and technical fabrics for durability.
