This colorup of the New Balance 996 features a super soft suede and high quality mesh upper hand crafted in the USA.  The 996 features a soft full length midsole plus a heel ENCAP providing extra durability and stability.

The Grey/Black/Yellow New Balance 996 is available this fall in stores at select New Balance retailers and online at nbwebexpress for $89.99.  Yes you read that right, a shoe made in America for less than $90.

Lately we have started seeing the New Balance MT580 surface in some good colorups that ARE available to heads Stateside.  While we have seen some wild colorways, New Balance comes correct on this pair with well balanced color blocking on this White/Black/Red pair.

These are available now online for $90 from New Balance.

Given it’s past, it would only be fitting that after coming to America that the New Balance MT580 hook up to do some more collabs.  The latest to the plate is technical apparel outfitter 686 who utilizes their expertise in tough materials with dyed yarn panels and rich leather uppers.  Other details that catch the eye include pop color a Rollbar, speckled midsole, and contrast stitching.

Both colors of the 686 x New Balance MT580 are available now at 686.

The upper consists of a bevy of materials from the lenticular side-panel and back heel tab to the cement heel panel, but turn out the lights and the shoe reveals a glow-in-the-dark dot matrix pattern on the toe.  Other detailing includes the two layers of speckled print on the midsole as well as the artwork on the tongue.

While the reviews will most likely be mixed on these, atmos proves once again to push the envelope in the elaborate design that we see in each product drop.

Expect availability to be highly limited.  Peep more of the shoe after the break.

This is definitely a style we haven’t seen too much of from the NB camp featuring the oiled leather upper and dark grey accents.  All in all, it looks like more of a casual shoe than performance, but with the same comfort and stability in most of the higher-end New Balance models.

Take a closer look after the jump and let us know what you think.  It’s available now at HUF via phone orders.

Here’s a look at an upcoming colorway for Spring 2010 that features a muted grey/white/black upper and electric blue accents in the lining, heel tab, and midsole.  Additional features like the 3M logo and speckled outsole make for some nice additions to bring the shoe together.

The shoe drops in February 2010, and will be available at most New Balance retailers for $100.
