Shawn Yue x New Balance 996 Revlite “Common Sense” Collection

New Balance is no stranger to the collaboration, and is not afraid to tap into the talents of unconventional partners. Such is the case, as they have teamed with famous Hong Kong actor Shawn Yue for the Shawn Yue x New Balance 996 Revlite “Common Sense” Collection. The 996 is a staple model in the New Balance lineup, and the 996 Revlite is a technological upgrade from the standard sneaker. The shoe is made lighter by foam compounds in the sole. The 996 Revlite remains true to the visual aesthetics of the original version, however.

This particular collection keeps it simple by cloaking the uppers in monochromatic premium suede and breathable mesh. Each shoe is laced with grey laces, except the grey colorway that opts for white laces. Reflective silver “N” branding graces the midpanels, and a white cloth lining matches the white midsole to finish things off. The Shawn Yue x New Balance 996 Revlite Common Sense Collection will release on July 27.
