Les concepteurs de la première 990 avaient pour mission de créer la meilleure chaussure de running du marché. La MADE in USA 990v6 reprend cette mission originale, avec une série de modifications adaptées à la performance. L'empeigne se passe de la selle médio-pied standard, permettant aux superpositions en cuir et en similicuir de s'étendre du talon aux orteils sur la sous-couche en maille, pour un style dynamique et épuré. Le nouveau modèle de la 990 présente de nombreuses modifications par rapport à la version précédente, les changements les plus flagrants viennent de l'intérieur. Avec le rembourrage supplémentaire au niveau de la semelle intermédiaire FuelCell, l'évolution de la 990 se ressent autant qu'elle se voit. Les New Balance MADE présentent une valeur propre minimale de 70 %. Les MADE représentent une part limitée des ventes de New Balance aux États-Unis. |
