The 990v6 keeps everything that made the 990 line a cult favorite — premium pigskin suede on the upper, breathable mesh panels, and the ENCAP midsole that locks in the foot while staying soft underfoot. The Ndurance rubber outsole adds heel durability so the shoe holds its shape long after lesser sneakers have packed out.
People wear these everywhere: long days on the feet, weekend errands, plane travel, work-from-home and out-the-door for groceries. They’re the kind of shoe you don’t think about because they just feel right — supportive, neutral-cushion, and roomy through the toe.
The 990 series is built at New Balance’s factories in Lawrence, Massachusetts and Skowhegan, Maine — among the only athletic-shoe production lines still operating in the United States.
