This highly popular item is sold out in stores and online shops. I purchased it from the official shop. It is unused. --------------- Released by New Balance in 1993 as the fifth model in the "990" series, the "998" has become a representative model of the brand. The Made in USA model is now available. The "998" was the first to feature "ABZORB," achieving high shock absorption performance. It fits the foot snugly and is comfortable to wear for long periods, making it popular with runners.
