Australian retailer Up There has joined forces with New Balance to create a fresh take on the classic 860v2, infusing the sneaker with colors inspired by Australia’s vibrant natural landscapes. This collaboration brings a unique and bold aesthetic to the 860v2, blending performance and style in a way that speaks to both the sneaker community and fans of the Australian brand.
The Up There x New Balance 860v2 showcases a striking color palette, featuring shades of green, blue, and brown, reminiscent of Australia’s diverse environments, from lush forests to coastal blues. The upper is constructed with a mix of mesh and synthetic overlays, providing breathability and support, while the playful use of colors adds a distinct flair that sets this collaboration apart. Pink laces offer a contrasting pop, further enhancing the visual appeal.
This collaboration stays true to the performance roots of the 860v2, ensuring that while it makes a statement in terms of style, it doesn’t compromise on comfort or functionality. The ABZORB cushioning in the midsole guarantees a comfortable ride, whether you’re on the go or making a fashion statement.
