Release Info Revealed for JUNYA WATANABE MAN x New Balance P400
Reimagining ‘s performance basketball shoes with premium materials and a futuristic sole unit
<New Balance> is set to launch the P400, its latest collaboration model with Junya Watanabe’s menswear brand <Junya Watanabe MAN>, at select stores worldwide starting Friday, October 16, 2026.
The base for this model, unveiled on the runway of the <Junya Watanabe MAN> Fall/Winter 2026 collection during Paris Fashion Week Men’s in January 2026, is the <New Balance> P400. This model is a performance basketball shoe designed to reduce the strain from repeated sprints, takeoffs, and landings throughout a game, making play more comfortable. By combining soft dual cushioning and a structural molded upper with a sleek, low profile and lightweight nylon plate, it firmly supports explosive movements on hard hardwood courts while delivering a highly responsive underfoot feel that answers to quick, agile play.
For this collaboration, the design fuses a premium leather upper with a futuristic sole unit, based on <New Balance>’s proud performance basketball shoes, aligning with the Fall/Winter 2026 collection theme, THE BEST, DRESSED—meaning not just to dress up, but to update the style <Junya Watanabe MAN> has built up to now. It is finished as a high-fashion pair that perfectly matches the dressy style proposed by <Junya Watanabe MAN>.
The <Junya Watanabe MAN> x <New Balance> P400 will be available at <Junya Watanabe MAN> retailers nationwide starting Friday, October 16, 2026. The price will be 52,800 yen (tax included).
