Next up for the New Balance 992's comeback? A colorful sneaker spin from Action Bronson.

Action Bronson apparently posted and quickly deleted a photo of his latest New Balance sneaker collaboration but not before fans could save the first taste of his "dad shoe" (He later reposted the shoe on Instagram as part of the official reveal).

In the early look, Action Bronson's New Balance sneaker was revealed to wear smooth tan suede across its uppers alongside other nicely poppy textures like bright orange mesh.

The rapper turned sneaker designer additionally incorporates some surprisingly satisfying colors throughout, such as blue-violet on the tongue and greenish rope-style shoelaces. As always, Bronson's latest New Balance collab is dressed with classic 992 branding moments and a "Baklava" stamp on the heel, a sign-off seen on Bronson's other New Balance shoes.

Incidentally, the sneaker has similar rugged vibes (and tan) to Carhartt's past New Balance team-up.

However, the vibrancy and outdoorsy-ness of this 992 instead oozes Action Bronson energy.

Action Bronson recently hosted a "Megastore" pop-up in New York, featuring every New Balance sneaker collab he has ever done.

The chunky 990v6s? Yep. The techy 1906s? Those, too.

Apparently, the forthcoming 992s were also on display.

The tan-colored Action Bronson x New Balance 992s are expected to drop sometime this year at New Balance.

We're still waiting for a hard release date from the man who quite literally does it all (cooking, music, designing great New Balance sneakers, you name it).

First, Kith and Joe Freshgoods. Now, Action Bronson 992s. The model is having a crazy-good run this year.
