2 New Drops From Saucony & New Balance Serve Scales, Camo & Epic Tech!
Fresh styles are landing, and these latest drops from Saucony and New Balance are turning heads for all the right reasons.
With bold details, premium builds, and serious comfort, they're set to be solid picks for your next sneaker upgrade.
Saucony Progrid Omni 9 'Glowaconstrictor'
The Saucony ProGrid Omni 9 just got a venomous new makeover, and it's shedding all expectations. Dubbed the 'Glowaconstrictor,' this scaly stunner slithers in with an iridescent mesh upper, glossy green overlays, and sculptural golden trim that looks straight out of a snake charmer's treasure chest.
Add in a matte black sockliner and you've got a silhouette that's both luxe and lethal.
The design blends early 2010s running tech with modern reptilian glam. Saucony's signature Progrid cushioning ensures you're not just flexing looks, but feeling the support with every step.
Dual-layered mesh and lace-lock hardware round out the build, reinforcing structure without sacrificing that futuristic edge.
But the serpent doesn't stop at just one skin. To celebrate the Year of the Snake, Saucony is dropping a full 'Glowaconstrictor' pack in three wild colourways: green, blue and purple.
Each one comes with that signature scaly texture and iridescent shimmer, ready to turn heads from the street to the track. Whether you're into bold colours or just love a statement sneaker, there's a snake to match your style.
The Saucony ProGrid Omni 9 'Glowaconstrictor' Pack slithers onto shelves later this year, available at Saucony and select retailers nationwide. Stay tuned for the official drop date and pricing.
New Balance 992 Made In USA 'Dark Camo'
New Balance is turning heads with the upcoming 992 Made in USA 'Dark Camo.' This version of the classic sneaker features earthy tones and sleek textures, made with premium suede and mesh.
It's subtle and bold at the same time, perfect for anyone who likes their style low-key with just the right amount of edge.
Designed under the creative direction of Aimé Leon Dore's Teddy Santis, the sneaker is part of NB's coveted Made in USA line.
It retains all the legacy details that made the 992 a cult favourite since its 2006 debut, including ABZORB SBS cushioning for next-level comfort, TS2 support for stability, and N-durance rubber outsoles built to last. In short, it's old-school tech wrapped in fresh-out-the-box luxury.
As the 992 continues to enjoy a well-deserved resurgence, the 'Dark Camo' edition proves that New Balance knows how to do subtle statement pieces like no other.
It's unisex, elevated, and effortlessly wearable, making it the perfect addition for sneakerheads and normcore icons alike.
The New Balance 992 Made in USA 'Dark Camo' will be available later this year at New Balance stores and online. Official price and release date to be announced, so keep your eyes peeled for updates.
