The Joe Freshgoods x New Balance ABZORB 1890 "Naughty Things" applies an experimental and cinematic energy to a newly introduced silhouette. This design blends archival inspiration with a forward-looking aesthetic, drawing inspiration from late '90s music videos.
- The upper features an exposed mesh base layered with synthetic TPU overlays.
- A distinctive wave-cut pattern, inspired by the New Balance 890v3, creates a sense of movement.
- The shoe is built on a reworked ABZORB-cushioned sole unit, originally seen in early 2000s running models.
- The ABZORB midsole absorbs impact through a combination of cushioning and compression resistance.
- Reflective detailing is present throughout the design.
- Co-branded logos from Joe Freshgoods, New Balance, and ABZORB are featured.
