One of the most interesting pairs from Teddy Santis’ new Made in USA season is a 992 that looks like it has been turned inside out. The New Balance 992 Black Turtledove (U992LB) releases on Thursday, November 19, 2026, at 10:00 at New Balance and selected retailers for €230.
Made in USA Fall/Winter 2026
Teddy Santis, Creative Director of the Made in USA line, has put together nine models for the Fall/Winter 2026 season. The 992 is one of them, and the timing fits: the model first came out in 2006 and celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.
New Balance 992 Black Turtledove: the details
Black leather panels cover most of the upper, set on a light Turtledove base. What makes the pair stand out are the edges: every black panel is framed by light brown, raw leather edges. Because the cut edges are left open and visible, the shoe almost looks like it was worn inside out.
- Black leather overlays with light brown raw leather edges
- Turtledove base with Afterglow accents
- Heavily yellowed midsole for a vintage look
- Made in USA
- Colorway: Black/Turtledove/Afterglow
The strongly yellowed midsole adds to that worn in feel and makes the pair look like it came out of an old stockroom rather than a new box.
