New Balance Cooks Up A Fresh “Black Cat” 1000

2025-12-23

The stealthy colorway expands to a new silhouette.

Those with a penchant for all-black NB fare will know by now that the Boston brand isn’t afraid of issuing plenty of adjacent takes on the same concept, even within the same silhouette.

Note:

The "Black Cat" Legacy

New Balance's "Black Cat" series has become synonymous with sleek, monochromatic designs, often featuring subtle material and texture contrasts to create depth within an all-black palette. This approach has proven highly popular across multiple models, from running shoes to lifestyle trainers.

What to Expect

  • Fully blacked-out upper, midsole, and outsole.
  • Potential use of mixed materials like suede, mesh, and synthetic leather.
  • Signature New Balance comfort and construction.
  • Discreet branding, likely in tonal or reflective finishes.
