New Balance works in collaboration with Japanese imprint UNITED ARROWS once again and this time, the duo highlights the signature 990v3 sneaker model for the season. It follows the muted iteration of the 1700s that dropped recently with tones of dark grey.
It was accented with hues of silver, white, and black -- the latest sneaker follows the same tonal theme. In terms of the construction, it features suede and mesh paneling throughout the upper and sits on top of the ENCAP midsole. Other details of the new sneaker include the iconic branding in the form of the large N along the upper and 990 brandings seen on the heel. The shoe is set to release soon online on UNITED ARROWS.
