The New Balance 993 "Shadow Blue/Cortado" Arrives November 2026

New Balance is bringing the 993 back in a "Shadow Blue/Cortado" colorway that balances two earthy tones across the Made in USA silhouette. The upper leans heavily toward blue, with dark suede overlays sitting against lighter mesh base layers, while brown trim traces the toe and runs beneath the side panels. Matching brown laces pull the two colors together across the profile.

Light stitching outlines each suede overlay from the forefoot to the heel, giving the paneling a clean, structured look. The charcoal "N" logos carry blue borders, and that same darker gray extends to the tongue and collar lining. White Made in USA lettering lands across the tongue as a nod to the shoe's domestic production. Around the heel, subdued brown-and-blue USA flag patches follow the palette of the upper, with small 993 embroidery placed alongside them. A cream midsole runs beneath the upper, sitting above black rubber tread and dark gray heel sections marked with ABZORB DTS branding.
