New Balance's cutting-edge range tends to consist of models made with a mix of suede and mesh materials, most notably the New Balance 992 which has gained more traction than ever in the last year thanks to collaborations. Although in this new version, the New Balance 992 "Wheat" does not need a partner. The low profile retains its shape but discards its traditional mesh base in favor of suede entirely, covering all panels from heel to toe in a tan tone, including "N" logos on the midfoot and branding on the tabs and on the heel.
