TLDR: The New Balance 991v2 Made in UK “Walnut” combines high-quality materials with an extremely seasonal autumn colourway. Shades of brown and mushroom are paired with suede, mesh and leather, whilst FuelCell, ENCAP and ABZORB SBS ensure modern comfort. It is set to be released on 20 August 2026 for €270.
With the 991v2 “Walnut”, New Balance demonstrates once again why the Made in UK line from Flimby is considered by many to be among the brand’s highest-quality releases. The colourway is entirely based on warm, earthy tones, making it a perfect fit for the coming autumn season.
The upper combines breathable mesh with high-quality pigskin suede and leather. Dark “Walnut” brown dominates most of the trainer, whilst “Shiitake” adds depth with a slightly greyer shade of brown. This gives the design a very understated, elegant and typically British look.
The 991v2 also remains technically impressive. The midsole combines FuelCell foam with ENCAP stability and visible ABZORB SBS pods in the forefoot and heel. This ensures a soft, cushioned ride without compromising on support.
Underneath the shoe sits a robust Ndurance® rubber outsole, which provides additional durability. Overall, the 991v2 combines classic running DNA with modern performance technologies and high-quality craftsmanship – exactly what the Made in UK range is known for.
