Smith has been a New Balance ambassador since 2019 and has released three different shoe collabs with the athletic brand and MSFTrep. He recently teased two new colorways — black and dark grey — of his New Balance x MSFTSrep 0.01 sneaker, which will drop later this year.

About New Balance

New Balance is an independent — increasingly rare in this day and age — athletic brand that was founded in Boston in 1906. Once perceived as “dad shoes,” New Balance has had a resurgence in popularity among sneakerheads in recent years. By reviving and revisiting classic silhouettes in new colorways and partnering with hot designers and fashion influencers, such as Smith and fellow Gen Z actor Storm Reid, New Balance continues to make its mark with comfortable, trendy sneakers.
