Stone Island and New Balance return following their previous venture with NB's Tokyo Design Studio, which introduced a cutting-edge FuelCell-cushioned running silhouette. The two giants are once again making waves with the introduction of the 991v2 silhouette.
Stone Island's distinct touch elevates the silhouette, covering the upper in luxurious black pigskin suede, layered with a foundation of dark grey mesh. The visual appeal is enhanced by 3M reflective panels on the toe box, creating a captivating contrast. This touch extends to the iconic "N" logo on the midfoot. Stone Island's emblematic branding finds an elegant place on the tongue, while the lateral heel proudly bears the "991" text. A unique feature is the "v2" branding on the heel's spine, distinguishing it as the evolved sibling of the 991. The sole unit features an all-black design with subtle grey highlights.
The Stone Island x New Balance 991v2 is scheduled to launch on Stone Island on October 4th before seeing a global launch through New Balance and various other retailers on October 18. Until then, follow us on Instagram and Twitter for the latest release updates and sneaker news.
