Palace works in collaboration with New Balance on a set of 991 sneakers for the season. Palace highlights two iterations of the 991 silhouette starting off with a sandy colorway palette. It is contrasted with hues of purple and teal for a pop of color. This is followed by a grey colorway palette that has similar contrasting tones.
For the first time in this collaboration, the footwear will also be joined by a selection of apparel including a water-resistant nylon shell jacket and shorts to match. Accessories include crew necks, tees, and caps -- all of these are made with inspiration nodding to the 90s. The capsule is also joined by a short film that highlights the Stone Age.
