JJJJound — the Montreal-based creative agency founded by Justin Saunders, whose taste-making influence spans fashion, design, architecture, and sneaker culture — applied its signature restraint to one of New Balance’s most storied silhouettes: the 992, Made in USA. The result is a greyish-brown tonal palette of uncommon depth, cream woven laces that shift the warmth of the upper, and black accent hits on the eyelets and interior that give the shoe its edge. Released in July 2020, it became an immediate benchmark for what a considered New Balance collab should look like.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eJJJJound collaboration — one of the most critically acclaimed and culturally influential New Balance collaborations of the modern era, by Montreal creative agency JJJJound (Justin Saunders)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMade in USA — manufactured at New Balance’s American factories, carrying the full heritage and craftsmanship premium of the domestic production line\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGreyish-brown tonal colorway — a warm, nuanced grey palette with subtle brown undertones that reward close inspection; offset by cream woven laces for tonal warmth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack accent hits on eyelets, interior lining, and branding elements — restrained contrast details that give the collaboration its modern, considered edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePremium suede and mesh upper construction with the multi-panel 992 architecture in its most refined execution\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eENCAP and ABZORB dual-cushioning system — the 992’s signature midsole technology combining a polyurethane ring with foam core for exceptional all-day support\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDurable rubber outsole with multi-directional traction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-top profile with round toe — the 992’s classic American running heritage in a collector-grade collaborative execution\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFull size run in Men’s US, Women’s US, and EU sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e M992J2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e New Balance 992\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollaboration:\u003c\/strong\u003e JJJJound (Justin Saunders)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNickname:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grey\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColorway:\u003c\/strong\u003e Greyish-Brown \/ Cream \/ Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 30, 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUpper Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suede \/ Mesh\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cream Woven Laces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMidsole:\u003c\/strong\u003e ENCAP + ABZORB Dual Cushioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSole Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rubber Outsole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lace-Up\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProfile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low Top\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eToe Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Round Toe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOccasion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lifestyle \/ Heritage \/ Collector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Men’s US 4–11, with Women’s US and EU conversions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSizing Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe New Balance 992 fits true to size.

His collaborations are defined by extreme restraint: no logos, no graphics, no noise — just material quality, tonal precision, and the quiet confidence of things chosen carefully. The New Balance 992 was a natural canvas: a Made in USA silhouette built for performance in 2006, reissued as a lifestyle reference point whose ENCAP and ABZORB cushioning and multi-panel suede construction remain benchmarks of American sneaker manufacturing. The M992J2 'Grey' stands as one of the most enduring collaborative releases in recent New Balance history — a shoe that appreciates in cultural value the longer it exists.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New Balance","offers":[{"title":"Men's US 4 \/ Women's US 5.5 \/ EU 36","offer_id":48293135483038,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 4.5 \/ Women's US 6 \/ EU 37","offer_id":48293135515806,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 5 \/ Women's US 6.5 \/ EU 37.5","offer_id":48293135548574,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 5.5 \/ Women's US 7 \/ EU 38","offer_id":48293135581342,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 6 \/ Women's US 7.5 \/ EU 38.5","offer_id":48293135614110,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 6.5 \/ Women's US 8 \/ EU 39.5","offer_id":48293135646878,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 7 \/ Women's US 8.5 \/ EU 40","offer_id":48293135679646,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 7.5 \/ Women's US 9 \/ EU 40.5","offer_id":48293135712414,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 8 \/ Women's US 9.5 \/ EU 41.5","offer_id":48293135745182,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 8.5 \/ Women's US 10 \/ EU 42","offer_id":48293135777950,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 9 \/ Women's US 10.5 \/ EU 42.5","offer_id":48293135810718,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 9.5 \/ Women's US 11 \/ EU 43","offer_id":48293135843486,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 10 \/ Women's US 11.5 \/ EU 44","offer_id":48293135876254,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 10.5 \/ Women's US 12 \/ EU 44.5","offer_id":48293135909022,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Men's US 11 \/ Women's US 12.5 \/ EU 45","offer_id":48293135941790,"sku":"M992J2","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/9781\/2638\/files\/main-square_9eeab719-2379-478f-9193-bf8ce84e560a.jpg?v=1789394780","url":"https:\/\/www.kicklifes.com\/products\/new-balance-x-jjjjound-992-made-in-usa-grey-m992j2","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
