New Balance introduces a look at its latest tonal 990v6 sneaker model with the Black and Grey colorway palette to join its roster. The brand releases the minimal shoe with a sleek and monochromatic palette. It is made from black mesh materials at the underlays of the shoe.
This is the perfect complement to the grey suede which is applied to the overlays on the silhouette. The model also has a gloss patent decorated on top to add an elevated look which complements the outsole unit and laces. The silhouette is complete with the palette throughout and technicalities include the added cushioning for comfort with the ENCAP unit followed by the FuelCell technology to round it out.
