In continuation of New Balance’s collaborative success, the American sportswear brand and Action Bronson have lit up headlines with their New Balance 990v6 “Baklava” that is finally hitting shelves this week. However, that’s not all the duo has up their sleeves. Last week, Bronson teased the 990v6 in a blue look and has taken to Instagram today to share yet another colorway.

Sneaking a shot of the shoe on-foot in his latest preview of the collaboration, Bronson has brought a banana yellow to the 990v6’s midsole and mudguard. Magenta laces also enter the mix while gray outfits a majority of the upper’s mixed material composition. Typical New Balance branding arrives with the “N” logo in silver and a co-branded tongue completing this first look at the arrangement.

The debut of Action Bronson x New Balance takes place on March 17 via Specializinginlife.com. It will then be followed by a New Balance release on March 24. Bronson mentions that “everything drops this Friday,” however, the second and third colorways of the 990v6 are not currently expected to drop this week.
