Joe Freshgoods, New Balance Tap Childhood Nostalgia with 990v3

Joe Freshgoods and New Balance have another hit on the way as Chicago’s own and the Boston-based brand link up once again. After months of leaks and teases, JFG has taken the reigns to tell his story the only way he knows how — visually and creatively.

The Joe Freshgoods x New Balance 990v3 “Outside Clothes” follows JFG’s ethos of tapping into Black culture with a nuance level that only a few can truly relate to. As best exemplified by his commercial, the collaborative 990v3 is truly about a communal experience of playing outside during the simpler days. “Made for us, if this video confuses you that’s the point.”

The shoe and its matching apparel combine earthy tones with a premium finish paired with blue and green that pulls from the great outdoors — brown suede representing the dirt, blue mesh mimicking the sky, and green accents embodying the grass.

The Joe Freshgoods x New Balance 990v3 “Outside Clothes” releases globally on September 10 for $220 on NewBalance.com and through select retailers. The apparel will release on Joefreshgoods.comAs always, our sneaker monitors and release day strategy will have members ready for drop day.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
