New Balance Announces Made in USA Spring/Summer 2026 Collection

Boston, MA, February 19, 2026 - New Balance unveils its latest Made in USA Spring/Summer 2026 Collection. This season's lineup features iconic silhouettes reinterpreted with landscape-inspired color stories, elevated materials and refined apparel essentials that echo New Balance's commitment to craftsmanship and timeless design.


The Made in USA Spring/Summer 2026 Collection highlights hallmark models including the 990v4, 992 and 1300, with a mix of rich suedes, premium leathers and breathable meshes in warm and cool tones that reflect the changing light and textures of the season. The campaign draws on the dynamic beauty of the outdoors, balancing modern color expression with the understated sophistication Made in USA represents.


Rounding out the season, apparel brings refreshed colorways of Made in USA staples, including crewnecks, hoodies and matching sweatpants, alongside sport-inspired track jackets and polo jerseys. The collection also features the new silhouette of a pleated skirt in bright and neutral hues.

The Made in USA Seasonal Collection will launch in the following phases from February to June 2026:

  • DROP ONE kicks off the collection with the 990v4 and the 992 outfitted with shades of olive accented by light neutral tones.
    • The first apparel drop from the Made in USA Spring/Summer '26 Collection features wardrobe staples in classic black and grey.
  • DROP TWO will feature the 993 in bright purple tones. The 'passion fruit' upper is overlaid with a deeper 'dusted grape' shade.
    • The second apparel drop adds a selection of seasonal silhouettes, graphics and core classics in new spring-inspired and easy-to-style neutral colors.
  • DROP THREE will feature a classic running-inspired take on the 992, with crisp white leather accented by deep 'team royal' blue and purple fuchsia.
    • The third apparel drop features a selection of women's pieces led by the Made in USA pleated skirt. These seasonal additions are offered in purple fuchsia and a selection of neutral colors.
  • DROP FOUR will feature the 1300 and the 992 in warm and cool takes on vibrant seasonal tones.
    • The fourth and final apparel drop closes out the season with heritage, sport-inspired silhouettes featuring elevated material executions - a classic track jacket in lightweight poplin, and a polo collared jersey in a knit pique.
