New Balance introduces a new tonal iteration of the 992 sneaker model with the launch of the Nimbus Cloud colorway to join the lineup. It provides a classic look with a timeless palette and brings attention to the premium aesthetics and craftsmanship. The shoe is made from elevated leather materials joined by suede at the upper with overlay accents on top.
Smooth leather joins the breathable mesh panels, which is done in metallic silver. The sneaker also has hues of cream, grey, and white to deliver a clean and versatile feeling. The N logo on the lateral side of the shoe is applied in silver which adds a slight pop of color. It rests on top of the brand's ABZORB cushioning technology.
