New Balance just put a face to Tyrese Maxey’s first signature: the Maxey v1. The brand’s own Basketball campaign frames Maxey with the silhouette over his shoulder — soft blue wave overlays, flying NB heel badge, tunnel-walk energy — not a white-void product plate.
Per Nice Kicks, the launch colorway Light Artic Grey/Black (style UMAX2NK) is due October 2, 2026 via NewBalance.com and select retailers for $130. The write-up ties the build to heritage cues — top-lacing nods to the 2002, sculpted outriggers in the spirit of the 9060 — aimed as much at off-court wear as on-court miles.
