New Balance U 990 MiUS v4 Core

The original designers of the 990 were tasked with creating the best running shoe on the market. The finished product more than met their expectations. When the 990 was first released in 1982, it came in a sleek, understated gray and was priced in the three-digit range at the time. For enthusiastic runners and trendsetters alike, the 990 was a symbol of quality and excellent taste. Since 1982, the design has been updated and more color options have been introduced, but the aura of the 990 as an emerging status symbol has remained unchanged. Simply put, the 990 is a shoe so good that we have never stopped making it. The Made in USA 990v4, which was originally launched in 2016, further refines the modernized silhouette of the v3 model, featuring a more minimalist version of the mesh upper and pigskin suede overlays, along with optimized fine-tuning for cushioning.
