New Balance U992OP

The designers of the original 990 were tasked with creating the best running shoe on the market. The 990v6, made in the USA, continues this original mission with a series of performance-oriented updates. The upper material forgoes the typical midfoot saddle, allowing the pigskin suede overlays to extend from the heel to the toes over the mesh underlay, providing a sleek, streamlined look. While the revamped design represents one of the most dramatic changes from one model generation to the next that the 990 has ever experienced, the biggest advancements occur inside. With the added FuelCell midsole cushioning, the evolution of the 990 is not only visible but also tangible.
