New Balance’s 90/60 Leans Even Heavier Into Retrofuturism

The New Balance 90/60 already owes a great deal to retrofuturism, but it’s source material is becoming even more apparent with the reveal of a new multi-color variant.

Just about every vibrant hue of the ’80s shows up on the silhouette that enjoyed a red-hot 2022. Several shades of blueish-green appear in suede and mesh across the upper, with purple and black also making scant appearances. The layered midsole makes use of two shades of pink as well as red, but it’s the “N” logo that sticks out above all else.

The 90/60’s lateral logo features a wavy tech pattern in orange-to-yellow gradient that matches the sense of motion throughout the entire sneaker. On the medial side, you’ll find the “N” altered once again with red and yellow giving a disparate take on the retrofuture aesthetic. The latter is the same effect found on another unreleased 90/60, but it’s this one that’s gotta take the cake as the most fun pair yet.

While official images have surfaced, New Balance has yet to divulge release info for this head-turning 90/60. Check out more photos below, and download the DROPS by SoleSavy app for any updates on this sneaker and more.

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
