New Balance may be an American brand with roots in Boston, but across the pond, the company’s UK factory in Flimby is its own arbiter of culture. For over 40 years, the Made in UK line has been bringing the influence of London streets, British shores, and rural countryside to collections that span classic lifestyle runners to dressed-up walking shoes. With the United Kingdom’s notoriously grey weather, the New Balance Made in UK label has a knack for fall colorways, and the latest 991v2 is no different.
First previewed in the New Balance Made in UK Fall/Winter 2025 lookbook alongside wild foxes and scenes of afternoon tea, the New Balance 991v2 Made in UK Silver Birch is a blend of creamy off-white suede and greenish yellow mesh, with silver hits on the side panel “N” logo, tan support panels on the toebox, and pale pink ABZORB pods breaking up the white and cream midsole.
