Name: New Balance 991v2 “Elephant”
Colorway: Grey/Salmon
SKU: U991GC2
MSRP: $250 USD
Release Date: January 2026
Since the 991v2 debut in 2023, New Balance has consistently expanded the silhouette’s reach with fresh iterations. Stepping into 2026, the brand introduces the “Elephant” colorway, further emphasizing its signature Made in England craftsmanship through refined construction and premium materials.
The upper features a dark grey mesh base layered with light grey suede overlays, providing both structural integrity and visual depth. Offering a vibrant pop of contrast, salmon accents sweep across the midfoot and tongue, providing the silhouette character while maintaining the sneaker’s neutral balance. Classic 991v2 details remain at the forefront, including reflective “N” logos and sculpted midsoles. Cream laces and an aged off-white midsole pay homage to archival New Balance design, giving the pair a subtle vintage appeal. Consistent with previous 991v2 releases, the sole unit is engineered for peak comfort; a combination of FuelCell cushioning, ABZORB SBS pods and ENCAP technology ensures a supportive ride tailored for everyday lifestyle wear. Look for the pair to arrive later this January.
