New Balance partners with 2025 NBA Draft top selection Cooper Flagg for the Hesi Low v2 x Cooper Flagg.

The player-exclusive silhouette is inspired by Flagg’s home state of Maine. Cream color and subtle green highlights pay homage to the region. Nostalgic design elements reference the state’s rolling forests and scenic charm.

Flagg’s ascent from local hero to NBA rookie forms the central narrative of the collaboration. The sneaker embodies his genuine rapport with New Balance and hometown roots. Hesi Low v2 construction prioritizes speed and flexibility for the court. FuelCell midsole provides full-length energy return and responsive ride. Rounded toecap on the outsole helps guide quick cuts and slashes.

The Cooper Flagg x New Balance Hesi Low v2 drops October 22, 2025, for $120 USD at NewBalance.com and select retailers.
