The New Balance Made in USA line, overseen by creative director Teddy Santis, continues to impress. The "Dark Camo" 990v6 Sneaker is constructed with a blend of sporty mesh and premium suede, featuring the signature "Made in USA" branding. It includes a mesh upper, suede overlays, a lace-up closure, embroidered branding, an ENCAP midsole, FuelCell technology, and a rubber outsole. Style Code: U990WO6. The designers of the original 990 aimed to create the best running shoe available. The Made in USA 990v6 upholds this original vision with several performance-inspired enhancements. The upper removes the traditional midfoot saddle, allowing the suede and synthetic overlays to seamlessly transition from heel to toe over the mesh underlay, creating a sleek and fast appearance. While this evolved design represents one of the most significant generational changes for the 990, the most substantial advancement is internal. The incorporation of FuelCell midsole cushioning means the evolution of the 990 is both visible and tangible. New Balance Made in USA footwear contains at least 70% domestic value and represents a limited portion of New Balance's U.S. sales.
