First released in 2017, the New Balance 990v4 MiUSA Black Silver dresses the fourth-generation performance runner in a sleek black and silver color scheme. The MiUSA Black Silver New Balance 990v4 boasts a mesh base with suede overlays, all dressed in black. Contrast is added to the sneaker by silver accents on the "N" side logos, upper eyelets, tongue branding, and reflective panels on the toe box and lateral heel (the 990 badge). In a deviation from the overall color scheme, touches of red can be seen on the heel and insole "NB" logos. The sneaker sits atop a gray ENCAP midsole, with a two-toned black and gray NDurance rubber outsole completing the look. The sneaker’s reflective details subtly break up the monochromatic black look, adding depth and a hint of shine without overpowering the design. The fourth-generation runner debuted on October 3, 2023, and sold for $185. 990V4 ‘Made in USA' Trainers by New Balance. Hitting the shelves for the first time since their debut in 1982, New Balance welcomes the 990V4 silhouette. The original 990 model was designed to be the best running shoe on the market. The 990v4 edition was initially introduced in 2016 and continues to refine and modernise the v3. The ‘Made in the USA' collection is a premium line that values craftmanship and is brought to life through meticulous planning and flawless execution. Every finished product embodies the definition of American made quality. The 990’s original designers were tasked with creating the single best running shoe on the market.

For avid runners and ahead of the curve tastemakers alike, the 990 was a mark of quality and superior taste. There have been updates to the design since ’82, and more color options, but the 990’s aspirational status symbol aura has never changed. Simply put, the 990 is the shoe so good, that we’ve never stopped making it. The MADE in USA 990v4, originally introduced in 2016, continued to refine the v3's modernization of the silhouette with a streamlined take on the mesh and pigskin suede overlay upper construction and fine-tuned adjustments to the cushioning.
