Salehe Bembury might have the most prolific output of any sneaker collaborator in the game today. This week, word of a new project with New Balance has surfaced, stating that Bembury’s take on the 1500 Made in UK releases this month.
Salehe Bembury has been incredibly busy over the last few years. The hired gun footwear designer has lent his talents to Crocs, New Balance, Puma, and Vans since he burst onto the scene back in 2020. New Balance has been a regular partner of his, giving him the freedom to play with some of their classic silhouettes. This week, @brandon1an on Twitter shared an early look at his next release, reportedly coming later this month.
Bembury’s latest project with New Balance is not the release we expected quite so early in the year. For months, he has been seen wearing a bold purple pair of the 990v2, though apparently his take on the Made in UK 1500 is coming first. Seen here in some of its official images, the new style begins with a light grey base for the mesh and leather portions of the show. The outer layers of the upper come in a soft sandy color, while slight accents in yellow, olive, orange, and purple complete the look.

The muted taupe pair will likely be available first from his Spunge website, followed by a wider NB release. Pairs will come with an elevated price tag of $275.
