Tetsu Nishiyama’s WTAPS is the latest, and first Japanese brand to collaborate with American footwear giant New Balance for the revival of the 992 model after a 14 year-long hiatus.

Injecting his signature olive drab colourway into the silhouette, Nishiyama still retains hints of grey from the original 992—creating a perfect blend of New Balance’s heritage with WTAPS’ classic aesthetic. Featuring an upper made from suede, nubuck, and mesh, the M992WT also features a hint of orange on its Abzorb-equipped (which is New Balance's blend of foam cushioning and compression set, featuring rubber), white and olive-based sole.

The WTAPS brand also replaces the traditional 992 on the heel and tongue of the sneaker.
