New Balance 1000

The New Balance 1000 is a model first introduced in 1999 as a running/training silhouette. Much like the New Balance 550, the 1000 wasn’t much of a hit and was largely forgotten, leading New Balance to shelve the silhouette entirely until it was unearthed by Teddy Santis.

With the Y2K trends that the shoe champions rising to prominence again, photos began circulating of new colorways of the shoe in 2024. It was a tacit confirmation that the 1000 would be returning to shelves for a renewed push. The release of the Joe Freshgoods New Balance 1000 officially brought the shoe back to shelves, and less than a month later, Teddy Santis shared initial images of a two-part Aime Leon Dore New Balance 1000 collection. Outside of those high-heat endeavors, the model is expected to come about in plenty of general release colorways for 2024, the “Metallic Silver” pair the first to officially hit shelves. The other colorways we’ve gotten images of so far are as follows: “Angora/Moonrock,” “Green/Gray” and “Pink/Tan.”

Below our latest coverage of the silo, including release dates, images and product links. The shoes officially retail for $150 and will be available on newbalance.com.
