The New Balance 990, first seen in 1978, blends athleticism with tech innovation for a modern running profile. Returning in Spring 2018 for its 40th anniversary, this 'Off White Gold' iteration reworks the classic in pigskin suede underscored by a flag label on the tongue, an embossed monogram and foil logotype on the heel. Perforated windows enhance breathability. The structural midsole and gum rubber outsole segments yield a rugged appeal.
