Footwear label New Balance crafted a new version of the low-top 990v4 silhouette in a 'New Green' colorway to mark an annual Irish holiday—St. Patrick's Day is approaching on March 17th and the label is preparing to help consumers celebrate with this newest green offering.
The New Green 990v4 sneakers boast the same suede and mesh construction but are coated in a bold green color. The sneakers also have the 3M reflective accent details and ENCAP rubber sole unit as a foundation. To further celebrate the holiday, there are decorative accents of the St. Patrick's Day emblem of the four leaf clover found on the back of the heels. The New Green 990v4 sneakers are available at New Balance retail locations and online at Feature.
