Concepts is a Boston-based shop known for its many acclaimed collaborations with New Balance, Nike, and others. This time the theme is “Patina” — the character a material gains as it ages over time. The result is a deep, muted palette and texture that recalls well-worn travel gear.
The base 990v4 is one of New Balance’s flagship Made in USA silhouettes. With premium suede and mesh and a comfortable midsole, it has long been a favorite among sneaker fans.
