The New Balance MADE in USA 990v6 embraces the original mandate of creating the best running shoe on the market, with performance-inspired updates. The upper features pigskin suede leather overlays flowing from heel to toe across a mesh underlay for a streamlined look. The evolved design includes a FuelCell midsole for enhanced cushioning, making the evolution of the 990 as noticeable in feel as it is in appearance. This shoe is part of the New Balance Made in USA collection, which contains at least 70% domestic value and makes up a limited portion of U.S. sales. Designed in collaboration with Teddy Santis, this sneaker is perfect for elevated fashion looks that favor an edge. The upper's textiles are suede and mesh for a ventilated, fresh feel. With colorways including dark grey, lighter grey, and black, it’s minimal and neutral enough to be worn with various looks. The "N" branding sits on the shoes' outer, and a 990 logo sits embossed on the outer back heel. This is an unassuming instant classic.
