After decade-long reigns for some of their models, the brand likes to celebrate some of its defining trainers. Now, the Made In UK 991 has turned 20, so a celebration is arriving in the form of an anniversary special.
First launching in 2001, the 991 was part of New Balance’s 99x series and it swiftly became a trainer of choice for a variety of consumers for its versatile design. This latest release is a must-have for OG wearers of the shoe or newcomers who want a piece of New Balance heritage – either way, it’ll be one of their standout releases of 2021.
Crafted in New Balance’s UK Flimby factory, it comes with creamy seasonal hues across its upper, opting for a breathable mesh base with smooth nubuck overlays. Signature ‘N’ sidewall branding is an obvious addition, while a special edition ‘2001’ is stitched onto the heel. Plush cushioning is provided as usual, with a chunky ABZORB sole unit that’s constructed from a shock-absorbing blend of foam and compression materials to serve up top-quality comfort from the moment you step in.
