Blue and brown share the upper on the latest New Balance 993, though most of the shoe leans toward blue. This “Shadow Blue/Cortado” edition pairs dark suede with lighter mesh, while brown trim runs around the toe and beneath the side panels. Matching brown laces bring the two colors together.

Light stitching traces the suede overlays from the forefoot to the heel, making the individual panels easy to pick out. The charcoal “N” logos have blue borders, with that darker gray also covering the tongue and collar lining. White Made in USA lettering stands out across the tongue.

Around the back, the USA patches use a subdued brown-and-blue flag graphic that follows the colors of the upper. Small 993 embroidery sits beside them. A cream midsole runs underneath, above black rubber tread and dark gray heel sections marked with ABZORB DTS branding.

The New Balance 993 “Shadow Blue/Cortado” arrives November 5, 2026, for $200 through NewBalance.com and select retailers.
