JJJJound Previews a Black and White New Balance 475 Collab in New Lookbook

Montreal-based fashion label JJJJound is all about the details. Taking simple colorways and elevating them with premium materials and the mystique of the collaborator’s unique aura, JJJJound has turned some of the most basic sneaker collabs into grail-level drops. In the brand’s latest lookbook, a black athleisure outfit is paired with a simple but effective pair of New Balances we’ve never seen before, leading us to believe another collab is on the horizon.

The JJJJound Spring/Summer 2026 lookbook, one model wears a black trail jacket over a white t-shirt with black sweatpants, and a pair of New Balance 475 in black and white. We’ve only got one quick picture of the pair in the lookbook shoot, but from what we can see, it follows all of JJJJound’s classic aesthetic cues with simple color-blocking and noticeably premium material.

Featuring a monochrome wash of black across the entire upper, the shoe adds black suede, mesh, and leather from toe to heel before transitioning to crisp white on the laces, tongue, and sockliner. The tongue and sockliner are soft leather with what looks like blank tongues without branding. The midsole adds more white to complete the two-tone look. Though barely noticeable, JJJJound branding is present on the heel tab in white.

So far, we don’t have any release date or price info on the JJJJound x New Balance 475 previewed in the new lookbook, but with the rest of the gear from the photo shoot dropping in the next few months, we could see these pop up sooner than later.
