New Balance U990LV4 Made in the USA Sneaker

The 990 was created with an unusually ambitious brief: make the best running shoe on the market, regardless of cost. More than four decades later, that pursuit of excellence remains central to its appeal. The v4 occupies a particularly interesting place in the lineage, arriving in 2016 as Teddy Santis' favourite chapter of the series was beginning to crystallise into the contemporary 990. For FW26, he takes the silhouette somewhere unexpected. Long associated with sensible greys and understated neutrals, the model is washed in soft violet hues, while hairy suede, wool-blend panels and an uncommon grid mesh construction switch things up even further.
