New Balance & Palace Launch the MADE in UK 991
Just as early humans sought to tame the forces of nature by capturing fire, most sneakerheads’ have embarked on a never-ending hunt for better designs. With the help of Palace, New Balance has accomplished both feats.
Described as a “collaboration 10,000 years in the making”, New Balance and Palace have teamed up to launch the MADE in UK 991. Below is what fans of the brands must know about the highly-anticipated collaboration.
Release Information
The Palace x New Balance Made in UK 991 was launched exclusively on the Palace Skateboards website on May 12, 2023. For those who missed the first drop date, the shoes will be available globally on May 19, 2023, on the New Balance website.
Given the hype surrounding the launch, the shoes will not come cheap for the average consumer. The suggested retail price is $260 for adult sizes. However, the rare shoes might be worth the investment for most online shoppers after they learn more about the model.
Collaboration Details

Every step in the shoes will be comfortable thanks to the fan-favorite N-ergy cushioning & ABZORB® underfoot. Meanwhile, the Mesh upper and synthetic overlays keep the kicks cool and comfortable for the warmer months.
New Balance built its reputation on its innovative designs and cultivates clout with its exciting collaborations. The partnership between New Balance and Palace has already captured fire, and now it's on sneakerheads to find the rare shoes.
