Joe Freshgoods and New Balance look ready to link up again, this time on the emerging New Balance 1890. The Chicago creative recently teased the project on Instagram, giving an early look at what could become one of the model’s most talked-about collaborations yet.
Based on the preview, the shoe appears to feature bright orange mesh paired with glossy black overlays around the heel. It is only a small glimpse for now, but the color choice already gives the pair strong visual energy. That alone is enough to build early interest, especially with Joe Freshgoods attached to the rollout.
The project also keeps Joe’s long-running momentum with New Balance going. It follows last year’s New Balance 2010 “Hand-Me-Downs” and “Bag Lady” releases, which helped strengthen his place as one of the brand’s most important collaborators. Now, his attention shifts to the 1890, a hybrid silhouette that blends the segmented sole unit of the New Balance 2002 with an upper inspired by the 890v3.
At the moment, no release date or official launch details for the Joe Freshgoods x New Balance 1890 have been confirmed. Still, the teaser suggests New Balance is continuing to push the 1890 with high-profile partners early on. More details should surface soon as the collaboration develops.
