Dover Street Market recently unveils a look at the brand new Made in U.K 991 sneaker model made in collaboration with New Balance. The shoe was made in the New Balance factory in Flimby, Cumbria to mark the 40th anniversary of New Balance's manufacturing location in the UK.
This results in a blend of premium materials for a high-quality look, staying in alignment with the expectations of Dover Street Market. The color palette is rooted in gray as the base foundation and has a blend of mesh, synthetic materials, and nubuck along with darker hues for a touch of contrast in a minimal design language. The rest of the shoe includes creamy tan leather around the heel, heel, and toe box.
