990v6

The 990 has been New Balance's flagship shoe since 1982, when it debuted as the single best running shoe on the market.

The Made in USA 990v6 honors that original mandate with performance-driven updates: FuelCell midsole cushioning adds a propulsive feel, while ENCAP midsole technology combines lightweight foam with a durable polyurethane rim for all-day support. The upper drops the traditional midfoot saddle so pigskin and synthetic overlays flow cleanly from heel to toe, giving it a sleeker, more streamlined look than past versions.

About

New Balance Canada

New Balance has been independently owned since 1906, and that independence shapes everything from its footwear to its "Fearlessly Independent" ethos.

The brand is known for genuine performance running heritage combined with iconic lifestyle silhouettes like the 574, 990, and 9060, plus a continued commitment to domestic manufacturing in the US and UK — a rarity in an industry built on outsourcing. New Balance products blend classic design, quality craftsmanship, and technical performance, appealing equally to lifelong sneakerheads and everyday runners.
