2025 is starting to look like the year of the 992 for New Balance, as the Boston-based footwear brand has big plans for the model. They’ve already dropped four core colors of the Made in USA model: Black, Triple Black, Grey, and Nimbus Cloud, and they have plans for more, like an inline Navy and collabs with Kith and Action Bronson. On top of this, the first drop from Teddy Santis’ new seasonal Made in USA collection will include a Moonrock Mushroom colorway of the 992.
Teddy’s eye for neutral and refined color palettes once again shines here on the 992, with a similar mushroom-shaded 997 launching on the same date. Here, the model comes coated in a mixture of classic New Balance moonrock on the hairy pigskin suede overlays and the smooth leather panels on the midfoot and eyelets. Below this sits a cream mesh base, contrasting the brown suede toebox and collar overlay.
