New Balthtance Made in USA 990v4

The 990’s original designers were tasked with creating the single best running shoe on the market. The finished product more than lived up to its billing. For avid runners and ahead of the curve tastemakers alike, the 990 was a mark of quality and superior taste. There have been updates to the design since ’82, and more color options, but the 990’s aspirational status symbol aura has never changed. ​ The Made in USA 990v4, originally introduced in 2016, continued to refine the v3's modernization of the silhouette. The Fall/Winter '26 990v4 features a calming mix of grey violet and beige tones, outfitted in a premium material mix of hairy suede and wool-blend, with synthetic accents.
