The New Balance 990v6 Made in USA “Rich Oak Cosmic Grape” honours the legacy of the original 990, blending performance-driven updates with a design that respects its heritage. Built to be the best running shoe on the market, the 990v6 introduces significant improvements while maintaining the classic silhouette.
This version features a brown mesh upper, highlighted with rich oak and cosmic grape suede and synthetic overlays. The streamlined design removes the traditional midfoot saddle, allowing the materials to flow smoothly from heel to toe, creating a sleek and dynamic appearance. New Balance enhances the shoe with FuelCell midsole cushioning, providing a propulsive feel that boosts comfort and performance with each step.
As part of the Made in USA Seasonal Collection, the 990v6 combines modern technology with quality craftsmanship. The ENCAP midsole cushioning merges soft foam with a durable polyurethane rim, offering all-day support for comfort and functionality. Reflective accents increase visibility in low-light conditions, while the TPU back tab adds extra stability.
New Balance crafts the 990v6 “Rich Oak Cosmic Grape” with over 70% domestic materials, reflecting a strong commitment to innovation and tradition. This updated version delivers both performance and the expected quality and durability of the 990 series, making it a reliable choice for those who appreciate a blend of heritage and modern design.
