Teddy Santis x New Balance 990v6 Made in USA "Driftwood Timberwolf" U990SG6

The New Balance 990 has always been more than a running shoe — it’s a statement of craftsmanship and comfort. For Autumn/Winter ’25, Teddy Santis brings his refined eye to the iconic silhouette once again with the Made in USA 990v6 “Driftwood Timberwolf”, blending earthy tones with upgraded performance tech for an effortless mix of style and substance.

This version trades the usual suede for premium nubuck across the mudguard and eyestay, adding a soft yet structured texture that feels right for colder months. Underneath, smooth leather panels in olive-khaki pair perfectly with off-white mesh, giving the shoe a neutral yet distinctive look. The reflective “N” logo keeps things classic, while subtle contrasts across the upper create depth without shouting for attention.

Inside, you’ll feel the real update. The 990v6 introduces FuelCell cushioning, delivering a responsive ride that makes every step smoother — whether you’re clocking miles or strolling through the city. The design team has removed the traditional midfoot saddle, letting the overlays flow seamlessly from heel to toe. The result is a streamlined silhouette that feels faster, lighter, and more modern than ever.

A two-tone midsole ties the look together, using the same natural hues seen across the upper for a cohesive finish. It’s an aesthetic that fits neatly between lifestyle and performance — clean enough for everyday wear, built tough enough for serious use.
