The Salehe Bembury x New Balance 990v2 Made in USA ‘Sand Be The Time’ continues the creative partnership between the prolific footwear designer and Boston-based sportswear brand. Their fifth joint venture presents a pastel colorway of the retro lifestyle runner, featuring pink hairy suede paneling with tonal open-cell mesh at the toe box and collar. A purple chenille ‘N’ logo decorates the quarter panel, while Bembury’s signature fingerprint graphic appears on the back heel. The layered build rides on a salmon-colored ABZORB midsole, reinforced underfoot by a durable purple rubber outsole.

Amazing quality of materials on this shoe - the suede is buttery and the leather is legit. They're also very comfortable and I could walk all day in them. The mesh is also top quality. Overall very happy with this purchase.

Love the design, materials, and quality of the Salehe "Sand be the time" collaboration. The shoes really stand out and are very comfortable. However, I wish I knew that these run slightly large. After quick research, it appears Made in USA 990v2s fit large (long). If you have a normal size foot width, I'd probably size 0.5 from TTS.

I love them! The material is outstanding, the color is so vibrant. They are also comfortable and they look great on my feet! The combination of colors is amazing. First time trying the 990 V2. Will try some more color ways for sure.
The Product is amazing. The color choices are perfect. The materials are amazing. I love when black creators get a create at this high of a level. Keep giving Salehe more opportunities.
Wore them last night to the Knicks game and got compliments from a random person, automatically knew what they were. Materials are great. I love the colorway. Even though these are crazy/non standard colors, it was pretty easy to where. Let the sneakers be the piece.
The materials/construction of this shoe are incredible. I get compliments from sneaker heads and the rest of the general public on these shoes every time I wear them. ORDER 1/2 SIZE DOWN to have a great fit. I normally wear a 12 and was heartbroken to see 12 sold out instantly, but luckily I decided to try 11.5 and glad I didn't miss out on these gems.
Salehe continues to create the best collaborations with New Balance. This shoe is even more fire in hand than it is in pictures, and the orange laces take it to an even higher level. One of the very best sneakers to drop in the last year across all brands. 10/10
A great collaboration shoe between new balance and Salehe Brembury. Colors may seem had to find matching for clothing but sweaters and shirts I found go well and I love the compliments. No regrets about these though I was hesitant at first.
Despite the prior Salehe collabs being more difficult to get, this has to be his best collab yet. The photos do not do the colourway justice, and it is a fantastic shoe in hand. And the 990v2 is an extremely comfortable shoe. Wish I could've doubled up on these.
