JJJJound has announced that its collaborative New Balance 475 sneakers will launch on April 9, initially as an exclusive on the brand's website. The release features black and yellow colorways of the silhouette originally introduced in the 1980s. This follows teasers shared since February in the Spring/Summer 2026 lookbook.
JJJJound, the Montréal-based brand, revealed a firm release date for its New Balance 475 collaboration after months of anticipation. The project builds on the duo's previous effort, the 990v4 “Mushroom” from New Balance's MADE in USA line, which entered pre-order last December and is slated to ship this fall. Teasers for the 475 appeared in JJJJound's Spring/Summer 2026 lookbook since February, with a recent image providing the clearest view yet of the two colorways. The New Balance 475, a timeless silhouette first introduced in the 1980s and recently revisited, features a mixed material upper in the yellow variant, accented by black “N” logos on each side, along with a blank off-white tongue, laces, and midsole. The black colorway mirrors these off-white elements but incorporates tonal “N” branding at the midfoot. The sneakers are expected to debut exclusively via JJJJound's website on April 9. Further details, including pricing and additional imagery, are anticipated soon.
