[Update 5 Dec] <\/strong>Just days since we were first teased with the Up There x New Balance 2002R “Backyard Legends II”, a release date of 9th December has been officially announced. While no pricing has been revealed yet, prepare your wallets as an in-store release is set for the actual day, followed by an online release on 10th December.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since the revival of the New Balance 2002R under Teddy Santis’ creative helm, the model has been a popular canvas for collaborators to unleash their artistic innovations. The silhouette’s versatility allowed it to enjoy a luxurious revamp from the high end AURALEE<\/a> to a contemporary overhaul under the street-cool thisisneverthat<\/a>. But beyond designer brands, New Balance also has a penchant for working with established retailers like BEAMS<\/a> and Bodega<\/a>, as well as smaller stores like Melbourne’s Up There<\/a>. And for good reason \u2014 the first-ever Up There x New Balance 2002R<\/a> was exclusive and desirable, so it’s no surprise that a sequel has been announced.<\/p>\n

While the first edition saw the 2002R swathed in an eggplant-reminiscent palette, this sequel veers the model into the burgundy-wine-on-white-sheets territory. A white mesh acts as a base while the burgundy red suede wrap around the the toecap and panels. White suede also intersect through the upper, effectively creating a pleasing contrast. Subtly, a yolky yellow makes an appearance on the heel. Similar to their previous workings, Up There makes their down under mark on the crossed tongue with a “New Balance AU” branding.<\/p>\n

This upcoming Up There x New Balance 2002R “Backyard Legends II” will be reaching Up There store soon. In the meantime, look to the slider for sneak peeks courtesy of @le.syndrome<\/a>.<\/p>\n
