New Balance Previews the Made in UK Fall/Winter 2025 Collection
We’ve already had a sneak peek at some of the heat coming out of New Balance’s Flimby, England factory for the second half of the year, but a new lookbook from the brand’s Made In UK label is piling it on, bringing out fresh colorways of the 991v2, 1500, and Allerdale.
Leaning into the English of it all, the collection is inspired by tea breaks, wild foxes, and leisurely walks through the countryside. The 991v2 stands out in pale purple suede and mesh with a cream sole and laces. The cream suede comes back alongside muted yellow/green mesh underneath, plus a grey pair with black mesh, and purple accents round out the new colorways with the previously seen Caramel Cafe.
The Allerdale walking shoe shows up in brown suede with a tan sole and black lateral side label that will be perfect for the colder months, plus some lifestyle photos that show the shoe in an Autumn-ready Roasted Cashew colorway. Debuting earlier this year to mixed reviews, the $250 walker is named after the Allerdale district where the English factory sits. Finally, the Made In UK 1500 gets a mix of slate and grey suede, blue mesh, and an orange sole for a pigeon-ish colorway.
We don’t have specific drop dates or pricing for the New Balance Fall/Winter 2025 collection, but you can expect shoes to start hitting New Balance retailers in-store and online as we move into the Fall, and as always, hit up the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
