Among the three colorways Tyrese Maxey showed during his signature shoe reveal, this off-white and blue pair was the only one without a black upper. The New Balance Maxey v1 “Light Blue” appeared alongside the black/blue and black/red editions, giving fans an early look at another option in the lineup.

White mesh sits beneath curved synthetic overlays across the toe and sides, with cream suede wrapping the heel and extending toward the top eyelets. Matching cream laces run over a mesh tongue. The large silver-toned “N” gets a light blue outline, picking up the color used below.

Pale blue covers the sculpted midsole, which curves up onto the upper around the forefoot and heel. Black rubber wraps the toe and carries across the outsole, where rows of wavy tread cover most of the surface. Smaller details include “MAXEY” lettering on the tongue, a “v1” lace tab, and blue New Balance heel badges.

The New Balance Maxey v1 “Light Blue” will release on December 4, 2026, for $120 through NewBalance.com and select retailers.
