New Balance Made in USA 992 - Medusa Green / Cortado / Thunder Brown

Medusa Green with two browns, Cortado and Thunder, on a 992. My partner calls them the forest pair and now so do I. Photo: Kith.

A runner, for once. The 1890 is lighter than my Made in pairs and looks quiet from across the room, which is exactly what I wanted. Photo: Kith.

Moonrock is grey with a little warmth in it, my favourite kind. Pigskin overlays instead of suede, which I'm still getting used to. Photo: Kith.

A lavender-grey I didn't think I'd wear, and now I wear it twice a week. The 993 is still the softest thing in my rotation. Photo: Kith.

The 991 is the shape I'd keep if I had to choose. Chipmunk is a warm tan that goes with everything I own, which is mostly grey. Photo: Kith.
