Jamal Murray’s New Balance Collection Releases Days After Elimination

It was a tough end for Jamal Murray and the Denver Nuggets, faltering in their hopes of a title defense in Game 7 against the Timberwolves. The shoe game slows down for no elimination though, and Murray continues to serve as a tentpole of New Balance’s basketball operation regardless of how fresh that wound is. Hot off the heels of the Kawhi IV, the sub-label is shining light on Jamal with a collection centered around the New Balance 2002R and the TWO WXY V4.

The icy blue shade chosen here is listed as “Carolina,” but it clearly derives from the Rockies, harkening to the baby blue away jerseys that marked the start of Murray’s Nuggets career. His Kentucky era “Blue Arrow” nickname is also a touchstone, inspiring these shoes in broad strokes but leaving the Wildcats’ hue out of the equation. Regardless, it’s used in dazzling fashion on the Two WXY V4 model. While a full aquamarine execution would be enough to carry the design, snowy speckled accents throughout align well stylistically with the jagged “N” branding on either side.

On the lifestyle-minded 2002R, it’s a more meted treatment. That shoe is largely dominated by trademark neutrals, the “Carolina” tint playing a secondary role on underlying leather overlays. It presents two equally stylish options to rep the Nuggets, either on the court or courtside.

Both pairs in the Jamal Murray New Balance collection are available now via Foot Locker. The 2002R retails for $145 while the Two Way V4 will run you $120. Our “Where To Buy” section below contains direct shopping links- act quick, because sizes are already selling out.
