Salehe Bembury has already proven that 2025 is off to another memorable start with the release of the Salehe Bembury x New Balance 1000. Bembury, who has worked with Crocs, PUMA, and of course his own footwear brand, continues to design cutting-edge releases through his work with New Balance.
The new colorway of the New Balance 1000 consists of a gradient that shifts from a fluorescent pink at the heel, to a steel blue on the forefoot. Bits of fiery orange are scattered on the midsole and lace loops. Textured suede overlays at the toe add a juxtaposition of texture to the multi-layered upper. It’s a confident look that stays grounded. It’s also a recipe that has solidified Bembury’s status as one of the most important sneaker designers of his generation.
The sneaker drops not long after the “Fog Be The Cloud” version, which we already know will be available on September 5th. The pair dropped at the same time, so there is still the possibility that they could be released as a pack. For now, the mystery surrounding how it will drop has only heightened the excitement.
This is another marquee release in Bembury’s recent run of New Balance collabs, which include the “Heat Be Hot” 1906R. Stay tuned for more details as we get closer to the release date.
