New Balance has introduced a teal-colored Made in U.K. 991v2 sneaker themed around the TCS London Marathon. Dubbed Dark Sea, the dad sneaker incorporates pink accents and event-specific details like the TCS logo on the insoles and LDN branding on the heel. The shoes are available on the brand's U.K. website for approximately $285.
The TCS London Marathon is set for Sunday, April 26, prompting New Balance to launch its special edition 991v2. The Dark Sea colorway features high-quality suede and mesh in a pleasing teal blue, complemented by bright pink highlights that echo the marathon's palette. Subtle references include the TCS logo inside and LDN replacing the standard 991 marking on the side heel, as noted by Highsnobiety. New Balance's 991 series is known for its stylish leather and premium constructions made in England. This release targets supporters attending the event or watching from afar, blending comfort with a nod to the race. The sneakers join a lineup previously featuring luxurious croc skin options, positioning the 991v2 as a standout in casual footwear. They went on sale immediately via New Balance's U.K. site.
