New Balance 1890

The midsole of the NB 2002 and the upper of the 890v3 come together in the New Balance 1890, a lightweight, comfortable, and versatile hybrid design that takes running aesthetics to the next level.

New Balance 1890: Innovation with Running DNA

The New Balance 1890 reinterprets the Boston-based brand’s legacy of technical running through a unique combination of two of its most recognizable silhouettes. The model takes the midsole from the New Balance 2002 and combines it with the upper from the 890v3, resulting in a shoe that balances comfort, performance, and a contemporary aesthetic. The ABZORB cushioning—which has led many fans to refer to them as the ABZORB 1890—offers a smooth and stable ride, while its dynamic lines and premium materials keep the athletic DNA that characterizes New Balance intact. The line has also evolved with models like the New Balance 1890A, a hybrid reinterpretation that transforms the silhouette into a casual-inspired loafer and demonstrates the versatility of the 1890 concept. At the same time, the New Balance 1890 has become a canvas for some of the brand’s most notable collaborations. Action Bronson, under the Baklava label, has brought his unmistakable color palette and carefree energy, while Joe Freshgoods found inspiration in late-90s music videos, reinterpreting the silhouette through a palette of saturated colors that evokes the vibrant aesthetic of that era. Stone Island, for its part, brought its expertise in textile innovation and technical materials to an exclusive edition of the ABZORB 1890, reaffirming the model’s potential to go beyond running and venture into the realm of contemporary fashion.
