New Balance 1000
Y2K style with modern comfort New Balance 1000
Originally launched in 1999 and relaunched in 2024, the New Balance 1000 brings iconic Y2K design with a modern twist. Its bold silhouette, articulated panels and dynamic curves reference the technical running models of the turn of the millennium. An ABZORB™ foam midsole reliably absorbs shock and delivers a soft, comfortable stride, while supportive TPU construction enhances foot stability. The synthetic and breathable mesh combination upper provides lightweight durability and a stylish retro-tech look. A rubber outsole with a distinctive pattern provides traction on a variety of urban surfaces.
The NB 1000 sneakers are ideal for lovers of distinctive style, fans of Y2K trends and anyone who wants modern comfort in a unique design. Great for everyday wear, work, school and leisure - anywhere you want to look unmissable.
Outfit tip: Team them with cargo pants, technical jackets and an oversized sweatshirt for a distinctive Y2K street look. For a more subtle combination, choose straight jeans, a simple T-shirt and a light bomber - the 1000 will become the main styling element of the whole outfit.

The Icon of Streetwear and Comfort Defining Urban Style - New Balance
If you seek the perfect balance between maximum comfort and uncompromising style, the brand New Balance is an absolute match for you. What began as a modest idea in Boston has transformed over the decades into one of the most sought-after lifestyle and streetwear brands in the world. At Queens, we offer you the freshest selection of sneakers and apparel that are currently shaping the fashion landscape.
Whether you are hunting for timeless classics, highly coveted retro running silhouettes, or the latest limited collaborations, New Balance in our portfolio represents the pinnacle of urban culture.
From Orthopedic Inserts to the Absolute King of the Sneaker Community
The brand's history began in 1906 under the name New Balance Arch Support Company. Founder William J. Riley was inspired by the perfect balance of chicken feet and designed a revolutionary flexible arch and orthopedic inserts. This deep emphasis on anatomical ergonomics and technical innovations (such as mixed gel inserts) remains in the brand's DNA to this day. New Balance also became a pioneer by being one of the few manufacturers to offer and still offers various widths of footwear for a perfectly fitting cut.
Over the years, however, what started as purely functional sports footwear has become a street phenomenon. The brand achieved the impossible: it connected the world of elite athletes, subcultural communities, hip-hop enthusiasts, and fashion purists. Today, New Balance is no longer just "dad's garden shoes" (although the brand itself has masterfully defined the aesthetic of dad shoes). It is a status symbol of modern streetwear.
Premium Quality: A Legend Named "Made in"
What elevates New Balance to an entirely different level compared to its competitors is their uncompromising commitment to premium craftsmanship. The New Balance Made in USA and Made in UK lines are synonymous with luxury in the sneaker world. While most global production has moved to Asia, these specific collections are still manufactured in factories in New England (USA) and Flimby (UK).
When purchasing models from these lines, you acquire a product with a high degree of handcrafting, made from the finest leather, premium suede, and breathable mesh. For collectors and sneaker enthusiasts at Queens, models from the Made in division are the absolute holy grail, maturing like fine wine with age and wear.
