New Balance 992 Receives a Quirky Twist from Action Bronson's Creative Imagination
Action Bronson, the rapper, TV personality, and gourmand, has once again collaborated with New Balance on an unconventional sneaker design. This time, he's named the collaboration the 'Tiger's Eye' New Balance 992.
The 'Tiger's Eye' 992 features cork suede, orange mesh, a dark brown sole, and a baby blue tongue. This collaboration, like many of Bronson's previous New Balance collaborations, is known for its loud and beautiful unconventional colorways.
In the press release for this latest collaboration, Bronson references ancient Persia, meditation, and requests protection, guidance, and wisdom. This unique vernacular is a hallmark of Bronson's music and is reflected in his sartorial choices.
Bronson encourages his followers to find fits for his unconventional sneaker colorways, including the 'Tiger's Eye' New Balance 992 collaboration. In fact, Bronson's New Balance collaborations often intentionally mismatch, adding to their distinctive appeal.
This isn't the first time Bronson has collaborated on an unconventional colorway with New Balance. In 2024, he named a New Balance 990v6 'Scorpius.' He also named his first New Balance 992 collaboration, and there's no information available about who initiated or launched the collaboration between Bronson and New Balance with the release of his first New Balance 992 shoes this week.
New Balance has benefited from Bronson's endorsement, with the brand gaining a fresh, unconventional edge. Bronson's premium brand ambassador status for New Balance is evident in the success of his collaborations.
Interestingly, there's even a dedicated page for things that sound like Action Bronson lyrics. His unique style and approach to fashion have made him a standout in the sneaker world.
The 'Tiger's Eye' New Balance 992 collaboration is a staple silhouette of the brand that is not often collaborated on, making it a special addition to Bronson's New Balance collection. As with all of Bronson's collaborations, the 'Tiger's Eye' 992 is sure to be a conversation starter and a fashion statement.
