New Balance 990v4 Made in USA "Navy" (2023) U990NV4

The 2023 New Balance 990v4 Made in USA “Navy” U990NV4, showcases a well-balanced mix of Navy, Blue, Grey, and White. The upper combines dark navy suede with breathable athletic mesh, offering both resilience and comfort. Adding a unique touch, perforated leather in a mid-tone blue lines the suede panels, enhancing the shoe’s overall appeal.

New Balance’s commitment to functionality shines through with reflective accents on the heel, ensuring visibility. The mesh tongue, topped with navy laces, features a patch with silver branding and a Made in USA plaque, highlighting the shoe’s premium build.

The comfort factor is a key highlight, courtesy of the New Balance ENCAP midsole. This feature, with its foam interior and polyurethane rim, provides reliable cushioning. The midsole’s two-tone design starts with grey at the heel and shifts to white towards the midfoot. The grey hue also accents the “N” logo, heel overlay, tongue label, and lateral “990” branding, seamlessly complementing the navy upper.

Additionally, subtle red highlights on the heel and insole branding add an understated contrast, while the front of the white midsole adds a clean finish. A durable black and grey rubber outsole rounds off the design, providing both traction and longevity.
