New Balance has consistently impressed sneakerheads with its Made in USA collection, particularly under the creative direction of Teddy Santis. The founder of Aime Leon Dore, Santis, has infused the line with fresh designs, aligning with New Balance's heritage of quality craftsmanship. As Season 5 of this esteemed collection wraps up, Santis has plans for two New Balance 990v6 Made in USA colorways, including this Vintage Rose colorway.
The New Balance 990v6 Made in USA Vintage Rose showcases a luxurious blend of pigskin suede, nubuck, and mesh, resulting in a sneaker that is as stylish as it is comfortable. The upper is adorned in rosy pink hues, with light pink shades gracing the mesh and nubuck portions. The N logo features a muted pink tone, while silver-grey accents on the collar overlay and tongue branding provide a subtle contrast. This harmonious blend of colors ensures the sneaker stands out while maintaining an elegant aesthetic.
Underfoot, the Vintage Rose edition continues to impress with a tan and cream foam midsole incorporating FuelCell cushioning technology. This innovative tech ensures maximum comfort and support, making it ideal for casual wear and more strenuous activities. The black outsole offers excellent traction and durability, rounding out a functional and visually appealing design.
The New Balance 990v6 Made in USA Vintage Rose has seen a scattered release over the last few days across various retailers, including DTLR, with a drop through New Balance set for June 27, 2024. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $220. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
