"The upcoming New Balance 1000 features a gradient upper crafted from a mix of materials, starting with a cooler blue tone at the forefoot and transitioning into vibrant pink and red hues. This progression across the shoe creates a dynamic visual flow rarely seen on performance-inspired silhouettes. Orange accents elevate the design further, appearing on the midsole, lace loops, and structural overlays. These warmer tones contrast sharply against the cooler sections, ensuring the sneaker captures attention from every angle."
"Salehe Bembury has become one of the most recognized names in modern footwear design, with a career defined by innovative collaborations and a bold creative vision. Known for merging technical performance with unique artistry, Bembury continues to push the boundaries of sneaker culture. While many are anticipating his upcoming retrospective book with Rizzoli, Salehe Bembury: I Make Shoes, and the launch of his independent footwear brand, the designer is still keeping momentum with his high-profile partnerships."
Salehe Bembury merges technical performance and artistic boldness across high-profile footwear collaborations while preparing an independent brand and a retrospective book with Rizzoli. He partnered repeatedly with New Balance, teasing two New Balance 1000 iterations: a teal "Fog Be The Cloud" previewed earlier and a second colorful gradient version. The gradient upper uses mixed materials, shifting from cooler blue at the forefoot into vibrant pink and red hues to create a dynamic visual flow uncommon on performance silhouettes. Orange accents appear on the midsole, lace loops, and structural overlays, contrasted by neutral off-white elements at the toe and tongue for balance and versatility.
