Japanese sneaker boutique atmos has collaborated with New Balance on the 2010 Wasabi, a new colorway inspired by the brand's 990 range. The release forms part of New Balance's 2026 Grey Days celebrations. The design features layered uppers in dusty green shades across suede, nubuck, and mesh.
The atmos x New Balance 2010 Wasabi draws from the iconic 990 series, incorporating a layered upper similar to the 992 model paired with a sporty sole unit for a streamlined look. Multiple textures including hairy suede, nubuck, and mesh create the earthy green palette, evoking wasabi tones. Subtle Japanese characters appear on the insole, highlighting the collaboration's origins with Tokyo-based atmos. New Balance's Grey Days is an annual month-long event that honors the brand's legendary releases, with this drop marking a highlight for 2026. Atmos, known for its sneaker collaborations, paired the silhouette with careful fabric choices and detailing. The sneakers became available as part of these celebrations, as noted in coverage from Highsnobiety.
