DTLR channels nighttime energy in the New Balance 740 "Night Moves"

The partnership between New Balance and Maryland-based sneaker boutique chain DTLR has lasted nearly a decade. During this time, the duo has become one of the most consistent and successful collaborations in the DMV region, where the NB brand has a long-standing and loyal fan base. Joint projects regularly include both premium models from the Made in USA line and creative takes on popular silhouettes from the main catalog.

The latest result of this partnership is the New Balance 740 “Night Moves” — a design that captures the rhythm of the city at night and the atmosphere of late-night strolls filled with neon and contrast. While the name may recall last year’s DTLR 1906R “Starry Nights” , this version has its own distinct identity. The model features a black mesh base, complemented by silver overlays that evoke the flicker of streetlights and reflections sliding across city streets.

Bright yellow accents symbolize road markings and illuminated signs, while blue and mint elements add dynamism and lively energy to the pair — as if the city were waking up after midnight.

The New Balance 740 silhouette is a retro 2010s running shoe that the brand has recently revived with a modern urban twist. DTLR’s version marks the next step in this revival, following high-profile collaborations with Aminé and Concepts, as well as a wave of bold inline colorways that have brought the model back into the spotlight.

The New Balance 740 “Night Moves” x DTLR is a stylish, emotional, and conceptual pair that reflects the nighttime mood of the big city as vividly as its lights.
