New Balance 990 Reviews

The New Balance 990 series contains some great New Balance models.  Some would view it as the flagship series for the brand. All the pairs I own are part of the Made In USA line and have some great quality as far as materials.

This is one series of releases that continually gets updates.  The sneaker originated in the early 80s, and is currently on it’s 6th iteration.  They still release retros of the older versions for those that are a bit more classically-minded.  But rest assured, there’s usually a new model to get into for those that want the latest take from New Balance.
