The brands continue their collaboration with the RC150, an under-the-radar racing style from the 1990s.
Leave it to Miu Miu and New Balance to bring some serious sneaker heat to the Paris Fashion Week runway.
In a very sporty Miu Miu show at the Palais D’Iéna in Paris on Sunday — where the set was turned into an arena with a purple track-inspired floor and bleacher seats — the longtime brand collaborators teamed up on the New Balance RC150, an under-the-radar racing sneaker from the 1990s.
Gigi Hadid and other models, including Billy Elliot actor Jamie Bell, walked in the look — which gets its name from the lightweight 150-gram design. Deconstructed in technical mesh, the style features contrast laces loosely knotted at the toe through external hoops. It has all the right ingredients to make it a must-have for spring, with its slim silhouette, retro color combinations and on-trend double-lacing.
The shoe fit right in with the vibe of the show. Miuccia Prada again transformed everyday gear into high-fashion pieces, like Hadid’s sports bra, worn backwards, and paired with an embellished skirt.
After receiving FN’s 2025 Collaboration of the Year Award, New Balance and Miu Miu continue to raise the bar with defining sneakers season after season.
Last month, for example, Miu Miu unveiled new iterations of the best selling New Balance 530 SL collaboration with the release of several styles, including a ballet-flat inspired version. And in June, the fashion brand released six new styles of the hit shoe in fresh materials and colors, which combined technical fabric bases with suede overlays and perforated leather.
