New Balance has two brighter 991v2 colorways lined up for Summer 2026. Part of the “Summer Brights” Pack, Green Banana and Baja Blue will each retail for $270 through NewBalance.com and select retailers.

Green Banana leans closer to a washed yellow-green than a true lime. Suede covers most of the upper, with olive mesh filling the toe, collar, and side openings. Reflective grey pieces break up the softer tones, while navy appears on the tongue, heel, and visible cushioning. The white-and-cream midsole keeps the shoe grounded in the 991 line’s familiar retro look.

Baja Blue, by contrast, goes far heavier on color. Electric blue suede overlays dark blue mesh, capped by grey trim along the toebox and midfoot. Solid silver-edged “N” logos pop at the sides while navy accents appear throughout branding and the sole.

Neither pair changes the formula much beyond color. Both keep the usual Made in UK mix of premium suede, breathable mesh, reflective accents, embroidered heel details, and the 991v2’s layered cushioning setup.

The New Balance 991v2 “Summer Brights” Pack is expected in Summer 2026. Both pairs will be priced at $270.
