New Balance 120 | New Balance 1000 “Black Metallic” is Available Now

Black and metallic silver has been dominating the early months of 2025, with Nike leading the charge through the T-shirt New Balance Athletics Pocket preto and an All-Star Weekend Air Force 1 Low dressed in similar hues. But New Balance isn’t sitting this one out, rolling out a series of matching releases across its lineup, including the 1906 and New Balance 120. The recently revived New Balance 1000 gets in on the action with a bold black and silver execution.

Releasing quietly in Europe earlier this week, this latest take on the 1000 is anything but subtle. The striking design pairs a black mesh upper with metallic silver overlays, creating a futuristic aesthetic that falls right in line with the Y2K-era appeal of the silhouette. A grey-tinted midsole sits atop a black rubber outsole, keeping the tonal theme consistent.

The pair is available now on New Balance BB550LM1 Black & White Sea Salt Pack, Shoe Palace, New Balance and now Foot Locker.
