The designers of the original 990 were on a mission to create the single best running shoe on the market. The MADE in USA 990v6 embraces this original mission with a series of performance-driven updates. The upper does away with the standard midfoot saddle, and suede and synthetic overlays now flow over a mesh underlay from heel to toe for a speedy, streamlined look. The evolved design marks one of the most dramatic changes from the previous generation of 990 models to the next, but it's under the hood that the biggest advancements occur.
The addition of FuelCell midsole cushioning makes the 990's evolution visible and felt.

New Balance
New Balance has developed its brand with the concept of supporting all those who love sports. They do not create special products just for top athletes or use super famous sportsmen to advertise, but rather create products for users who are involved in sports to achieve self-realization and balance their lives. When creating products, they prioritize how the shoes fit the user's feet, and have developed a unique "width sizing system" that allows users to select shoes based on the combination of foot length and foot width.
