Introducing the New Balance 990v3 Sneakers for men. Originally designed to be the ultimate running shoe, this product has exceeded all expectations. When it first hit the market in 1982, the 990 showcased a sleek and sporty gray color combination, along with an unprecedented three-digit price tag. It quickly became a symbol of superior quality and taste for both avid runners and trendsetters. Over the years, the design has been updated with more color options, but the ambitious status symbol that surrounds the 990 remains unchanged. In short, the 990 is such a great shoe that we have never stopped producing it. The 990v3 features a premium leather and mesh upper, as well as an ENCAP cushioned midsole for all-day support. Made with 70% or more domestic value, New Balance MADE represents a limited part of New Balance's sales in the United States. Style meets functionality with the M990GY3.
