In 1988, New Balance launched the 996, a hybrid-style athletic shoe apt for walks/runs as well as use in the gym. In the years since its release, the 996 has become a cult classic among creatures of comfort for its versatility and various style applications as it was regularly featured in seasonal lifestyle capsules. Now, for its 35th Anniversary, the 996 is primed for a reintroduction under the MADE In USA collection, delivered in choice colors, materials, and details we’ve come to associate with the Teddy Santis-led umbrella.

For the first time since 2021, the New Balance 996 has officially returned to shelves via an exclusive release at Aimé Leon Dore. Offered in the signature “NB Navy” shade, this 996 features a hairy suede upper with classic mesh, ENCAP midsole cushioning true to the OG, MADE In USA sock-liner, and a woven tongue label. With more colorways set to release later this season, the 996 is ready to claim its spot in the modern pantheon of NB classics.

The New Balance 996 MADE In USA is available now exclusively at Aimé Leon Dore online for $185.
