MIU MIU REBUILDS THE NEW BALANCE RC150 FOR SS27

Miu Miu and New Balance debuted the RC150 racing sneaker at the Spring/Summer 2027 show in Paris, the fifth year of their collaboration. The shoe rebuilds a lightweight 1990s New Balance runner in technical mesh with contrast laces knotted through external metal loops. It came in six colorways, and Gigi Hadid closed the show wearing it.







Key Points
- Miu Miu and New Balance are in the fifth year of their collaboration
- The RC150 is a 1990s archive runner rebuilt in technical mesh
- Contrast laces knot at the toe through external metal loops
The Miu Miu New Balance RC150 made its debut on the Spring/Summer 2027 runway in Paris, a reconstruction of the racing sneaker in the fifth year of the two brands' collaboration. It is a lightweight 1990s runner from the New Balance archive, taken apart and rebuilt in technical mesh.
Laces Knotted Loosely Through Metal Hoops
Miu Miu moved the lacing to the outside of the RC150. Contrast laces are knotted loosely at the toe through external metal loops, a refreshed take on the house double lacing system. The name points to a weight of 150 grams, and the mesh body keeps the original's minimal shape.
It follows the Bubble sneaker Miu Miu built on a contradiction for Fall 2026, which also started from an old archive shape.
A Purple Track Inside the Palais d'Iéna
Miu Miu turned the Palais d'Iéna into a sporting arena for the show, with spectator stands and a purple floor that recalled an athletics track. Gigi Hadid closed the show and walked in the RC150. Miu Miu summed up the collection in one line: each outfit becomes "an inherent contrast."
The pairs came in blue and white, yellow and blue, yellow and green, brown and white, tan and black, and orange. Runway images are by ptr.dzz.
Two 1990s Shoes in Two Seasons
Miu Miu has now gone back to the 1990s twice in footwear. The Bubble sneaker revived Miuccia Prada's late 1990s archive on a squared toe and a studded rubber sole, and the house later gave it a lighter sole. The RC150 swaps that sculpted rubber for a 150 gram mesh upper and six colorways.
