The New Balance 991v2, not three years old, seems like its been part of the family forever. It’s at the forefront of the brand’s top-tier line-up of footwear, offering that classic dad-shoe look with updated tech and cushioning that scoff at 10k step-counts.

This Spring 2026, we’ve seen a bevy of suede options spanning the color wheel. Already previewed in dark grey and muddy oranges, New Balance now hits toward pink-ish tones with a “Smoked Pearl”. Think of it like a muted and dusty take on a classic pink — a popular choice in retro runner footwear. Combined with the standard midsole in light beige and grey with green hits on the visible cushioning elements (the FuelCell is really inside).

With colorways this strong, the NB brand hasn’t needed to rely on regular collabs to push its excellence. It simply speaks for itself.

New Balance heads can find this latest colorway at select retailers this season for $250. They’re currently available at shops in Europe.
