Purchased from the official online store, brand new and unworn, only tried on. MODEL / U990NC6 "made in USA" COLOR / WHITE GREY FABRIC / Suede Description: The updated 990v6 design eliminates the traditional midfoot saddle, with pigskin suede and synthetic leather overlays flowing seamlessly from heel to toe over the mesh upper. This evolved design is one of the most dramatic changes from the previous generation, but the biggest functional leap actually occurred inside. The addition of FuelCell midsole cushioning, rebound elasticity, and lightness makes the evolution of the 990 more and more apparent the more you look at it. The New Balance 990 series, a flagship model, was born in 1982 as a running shoe for on-road use. Developed with the latest technology, it was released at a very high price of $100 at the time. It became a hot topic when it was advertised as "990 points out of 1000" and has since evolved through 14 generations: "995", "996", "997", "998", "999", "990", "991", "992", "993", "990v3", "990v4", "990v5", and "990v6". The carefully designed design, minimalist aesthetics, and undeniable comfort of this shoe have been passed down through generations and are undeniably relevant to the sneaker culture that exists today. #newbalance #newbalance #990V6 #990 #FuelCell
