Within New Balance’s diverse lineup of footwear silhouettes, the 991 has recently taken center stage, garnering attention through collaborative ventures with esteemed brands such as Patta and Stone Island.

Now, the aforementioned model is set to return in a ‘Pelican/Island Fossil’ colorway, providing a neutral alternative to the minimalist-favorite among sneakerheads—the JJJJound x New Balance 991.

Crafted from premium suede and ripstop materials, this pair boasts a versatile ivory and beige aesthetic, enhanced by grayscale detailing throughout, including the ‘N’ profiles, heel counters, and technical outsole.

Slated to arrive on 7 December, the New Balance 991 “Pelican/Island Fossil” will be made available for purchase via New Balance and select retailers for US$220. While we anticipate its release, check out detailed product and on-foot shots of the pair via the gallery above.
