New Balance 991v2 “Elephant” U991GC2
The New Balance 991v2 “Elephant” continues the brand’s Made in UK legacy with a refined, everyday-ready approach to the modern lifestyle runner. Crafted in Flimby, England, it combines premium materials with a restrained design, resulting in a silhouette that feels elevated while staying true to New Balance’s heritage.
The upper features plush grey suede overlays layered over a dark mesh base, delivering depth, structure, and breathable comfort. Subtle salmon accents add warmth to the otherwise muted palette, while charcoal and black tones shape the “Elephant” identity through material contrast rather than bold colour. Reflective “N” logos and clean paneling maintain the model’s classic New Balance look.
Underfoot, an aged off-white midsole references the 991’s archive roots, while FuelCell cushioning provides smooth, supportive comfort for all-day wear. Finished with cream laces and a clean sockliner, the 991v2 “Elephant” stands as a versatile, premium option for collectors and anyone looking for a timeless everyday sneaker.
