Jaden Smith's journey with New Balance has transitioned from being a mere brand ambassador to becoming a pivotal figure in the sneaker design process, showcasing his unique vision and commitment to sustainable fashion. Following the debut of the MSFTSrep x New Balance 0.01 at the end of 2023, which was released in a clean White Black colorway, a new Grey iteration is set to drop very soon.
The MSFTSrep x New Balance 0.01 Grey is a blending materials and colors masterclass. Like a classic New Balance 99X model, this new colorway of Jaden Smith’s latest sneaker features a sophisticated mix of grey mesh on the toe and tongue, complemented by suede across the mudguard, midfoot panels, and heel. Adding to the textural complexity, nubuck in a darker shade of grey adorns the vamp and collar, enriching the overall aesthetic. The collaboration's spirit is highlighted through the white NB and MSFTSrep logos on the midfoot, symbolizing the fusion of New Balance's footwear excellence with Jaden Smith's forward-thinking approach to fashion. Underfoot sits a pre-dirtied midsole, which incorporates segmented rubber portions, finished with a black rubber outsole for traction and longevity.
The MSFTSrep x New Balance 0.01 Grey will release April 26, 2024, through select retailers online and in-store overseas. A wider release is expected in the coming weeks. Available in men’s sizing, the sneaker will retail for $110.
