2015's New Balance MRL696 was so good that Kanye West himself had to give the sneakers props, and now they're back, but there's only one place you'll find them.

Kith has the privilege of being the only store worldwide to re-release the New Balance MRL696, which is sometimes called the Deconstructed 696, in both "Sand" (above) and "Sage." These sneakers use a lightweight, nearly one-piece construction and feature a ton of perforations to keep you comfortable as the weather starts to heat up.

While these aren't quite dated enough to be considered a retro, we're sure that 'heads will appreciate getting a second chance at them. Priced at $130 each, you can cop the "Sand" colorway here and the "Sage" pair right here.
