The long-awaited JJJJound x New Balance 2002R GORE-TEX collaboration finally has an official release date: February 15. Priced at $190, these shoes will be a winter must-have for sneakerheads looking for both style and practicality.
JJJJound, known for their sleek, understated designs, teamed up with New Balance to create two colorways – gray and green – that harmoniously blend contemporary aesthetics with winter functionality. Each shoe has a black base that is accentuated by the gray or green hue of the suede overlays. The key element, of course, is the GORE-TEX lining woven into the mesh upper to keep your feet dry and comfortable even in the harshest weather conditions.
While JJJJound’s design philosophy emphasizes minimalism, this collaboration features subtle details that elevate the shoe. Black reflective accents, a signature of the New Balance 2002R, add a touch of low-light visibility, while an extra pair of rope laces (as seen in JJJJound’s Instagram teasers) offer customization options.
Mark your calendars. The JJJJound x New Balance 2002R GORE-TEX will launch first on JJJJound.com on February 15th. A wider global release through New Balance channels will follow on February 22nd.
