New Balance is known for its greys. And as we hit the end of the brand’s annual Grey Days celebration, jam-packed with more than a dozen grey colorways, NB is keeping the cloudy theme alive, bringing a triple-grey pair of Made in USA 992 to the mix with cream mesh accents.
The New Balance 992 Made in USA Shadow Grey starts with a sleek, steel grey across the toe, lower part of the side panels, and the heel. The side panel structure is a dark weathered grey leather that’s cracking with fake age, and the support panels stretching across the toebox and heel add the darkest shade in a nearly black tone of grey.

Lastly, the base of the upper adds a bit of light contrast in off-white mesh, the laces pop in stark white, and the two-tone midsole splits between cream on the front and more steel grey on the back half. After taking years of hiatus out of the NB catalog, the 992’s Made in USA return has been a welcome addition back to the line.
The New Balance 992 Made in USA Shadow Grey will be released June 2026, at select New Balance retailers in-store and online. Available in men’s sizes, the retail price is set at $200. For all the latest from New Balance’s Made in USA line, download the Sole Retriever App.
