New Balance Made in USA introduces a new tonal version of the Spring/Summer 2024 season designed in collaboration with Teddy Santis. Recently, the two unveiled a set of muted and Spring-ready colorways in February. Now, the 990v4 silhouette is led by a blue palette, making its first introduction to the world online on social media.
It is dubbed the Arctic Grey, and although appearing to be blue, it decorates the upper with a soft aesthetic. This is made from a smooth suede material overlaying throughout and it rests on top of the sole unit detailed with a deeper grey tone. Other contrasting details can be seen at the grey mesh base for a slight contrast continued by touches of black accents.
