Case in point: The New Balance 996 first released in 1988, celebrating its 35th anniversary this year. To mark the occasion, a two-pack that contains a &#8220;Grey&#8221; and &#8220;Navy&#8221; colorway is set for release. An addition to another <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2023\/02\/13\/new-balance-celebrates-35-years-of-new-balance-996\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&#8220;35th Anniversary&#8221; 996<\/a> that was reported earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both pairs feature a mesh base layer and hairy suede overlays, with a tonal application of colors distinguishing the two. A lighter hue dresses the former of both pairs with contrast added by a darker shade on the latter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unique to this model, the &#8220;N&#8221; logo that&#8217;s usually on the profiles are absent. In its place is the &#8220;NB&#8221; emblem embroidered solely on the lateral, with the medial void of any branding element giving off a clean look to the design. Instead, the aforementioned &#8220;N&#8221; logo is introduced by way of a hangtag on the laces. The design is completed with the hallmark ENCAP midsole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There aren&#8217;t any release details yet but expect them to arrive within the year! When more information does surface, you&#8217;ll find out about it here so stay tuned!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the meantime, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2023\/06\/20\/kanghyuk-and-reebok-reunite-for-the-club-c-ltd-classic-ltd\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">KANGHYUK x Reebok Club C LTD &amp; Classic Leather LTD<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/snkrdunk_int\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp\" alt=\"Magazine-Bottom-Banner\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Update 25 Jul 2023] More product images have surfaced of the two pairs of New Balance 996 &#8220;35th Anniversary&#8221;, just a few days shy of its 28 July release date.
