New Balance Made in USA 990v6

The New Balance Made in USA 990v6 is the sixth generation of the 990 — a silhouette introduced in 1982 as the first running shoe to retail at $100, and still benchmarked as the brand's pinnacle of craftsmanship, assembled in New Balance's New England factory network from materials representing 70% or more domestic value. For the v6, designers eliminated the traditional midfoot saddle, allowing pigskin suede and synthetic overlays to flow uninterrupted from heel to toe across a breathable mesh underlay for a sleeker, more streamlined silhouette than any previous 990 generation. The biggest advancement occurs underfoot — the v6 adds FuelCell propulsive foam to the proven ENCAP dual-density midsole (lightweight foam core surrounded by a durable polyurethane rim), delivering a noticeably more energetic ride than the v5 while maintaining the all-day support and stability the 990 is famous for, available in men's, women's, and unisex sizing with multiple width options.
