The new Patta x New Balance 991
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the iconic silhouette
January 19th, 2021
2020 proved that no other sneaker brand is able to design collaborations quite like New Balance, which with each joint venture reinvents its DNA and its aesthetics without giving up the iconicity of its creations. A path that is similar to the one undertaken by Patta, the Amsterdam-based brand that over the last few months has signed good and balance collaborations, especially the one with Reebok.
The two brands are now meeting for their second collaboration, which unlike the first, that focused on the 920 model of the American brand, works on a legendary silhouette, the New Balance 991. The occasion is precisely the twentieth anniversary of the creation of the sneaker, one of the icons of the brand that has always been manufactured in the British factories of New Balance.
The 991 was the first sneaker of the 99x line to be characterized by a completely new midsole, equipped with the ABZORB detail, able to ensure maximum comfort and to give a new twist to the shoe. As happened in the first collaboration between the two brands, once again Patta and New Balance have decided to work with soft but warm tones, in overlapping of different materials and textures that want to give a decisive touch of luxury. In the gradation of nuances that make up the shoe, the white branding of Patta, present on the side of the silhouette, almost at the height of the heel, meets the "N" of New Balance, that, on the other hand, maintains its aura of classicism.
The Patta x New Balance 991 will be available in men's and women's sizes at a price of €220 starting from Friday, January 22 at 1 PM on the brand's website and in selected retailers.
