Last year, siblings Willow and Jaden Smith shared a wholesome moment as Jaden made a surprise appearance during Willow’s set at Coachella. Notably, Jaden debuted a previously-unseen New Balance silhouette during his performance, one that was later revealed to be the MSFTSrep x New Balance 0.01. It didn’t end up releasing until much later in the year, and is now set to make a return for 2024.
For the second MSFTSrep x New Balance 0.01 colorway, an aged approach has been applied to the uniquely-structured sneaker. Instead of opting for a full-leather upper once again, the sneaker boasts a mixed material build of mesh, suede and leather. Various gray hues adorn the layered shoe as white New Balance branding hits the lateral midfoot and tongue while a white MSFTSrep detail has been positioned at the medial midfoot. Its cut-out sole unit returns, this time sporting a messy off-white midsole that has been artificially aged.
At the time of writing, neither Jaden Smith, MSFTSrep nor New Balance have confirmed any release details regarding this gray iteration of the New Balance 0.01. Stay tuned for updates, including a complete visual breakdown of the pair, as we expect it to launch later this year via New Balance and select retailers at a starting price of $110 USD.
