Notes: Premier and New Balance Numeric joined forces in a one-of-a-kind sneaker collaboration inspired by the elusive morel mushroom. This unique design captures the mushroom’s signature characteristics through an elegant fusion of earthy tones and intricate detailing. A thoughtful color palette of tans, browns and gray evokes the mushroom’s natural woodland habitat, while debossed leather uppers mimic its distinctive honeycomb texture.

Sustainability takes center stage in the design, with the New Balance “N” logo and tongue tag is crafted from HyphaLite™ TC – a cutting-edge, mushroom-derived material. Beyond the footwear, the collaboration embraces a narrative of nature and craftsmanship. Vintage botanical artwork adorns the interior and packaging, paired with practical extras like a foraging bag, rugged hiker-style laces and custom stickers, creating a comprehensive and meaningful design experience.
