CNCPTS x New Balance 990v4 Made in USA 'Patina'

When Boston retail powerhouse Concepts teams up with New Balance's domestic Made in USA division, sneakerheads know to expect storytelling that goes far beyond standard color swaps. The CNCPTS x New Balance 990v4 "Patina" treats the iconic 2016 running silhouette like a well-traveled piece of vintage luggage, capturing the charm of antiqued leather, estate sales, and classic New England heritage.

Ditching standard athletic synthetics, the upper is a masterclass in rich, tactile layering. A light off-white mesh acts as the base, framed by buttery, soft tan suede across the mudguard and lateral overlays. To give the shoe its signature "aged" personality, dark brown perforated leather panels wrap the midfoot, while deep burgundy suede cradles the heel counter. Earthy Dark Olivine green accents ground the warm tones, coating the side "N" logos, heel tabs, and fine-tuned midsole pods. To wrap up the collaboration, custom "C" branding is stamped onto the back heel badge alongside specialized emerald green insoles.

Underneath sits the legendary 990v4 performance engine, utilizing a dual-density ENCAP midsole (soft EVA core encased in a durable polyurethane rim) paired with ABZORB heel cushioning. This gives you all-day stability, high impact absorption, and a broken-in step right out of the box. Crafted with over 70% domestic value in American factories, it is one of the most material-rich, sophisticated collaborations of the year.
