Product Details
The New Balance 990v6 is the latest chapter in NB's most iconic heritage line, the series that effectively invented the premium dad shoe. This 1:1 replica of the M990GL6 colorway in classic Grey captures the premium pigskin suede and mesh upper that defines the 990 family, the ENCAP midsole combining a soft foam core with a supportive polyurethane rim, and the Vibram-compatible rubber outsole.

Customer Reviews
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 990v6 fit compared to earlier 990 versions?
The 990v6 last is slightly narrower in the toebox than the v5. If you found the v4 or v5 to be a comfortable fit, consider going half a size up on the v6 to maintain the same comfortable feel.
Is the suede used on the upper real suede or synthetic?
The upper uses a high-quality split suede that closely matches the texture and appearance of the retail 990v6's pigskin suede. It develops a natural patina with wear.
What makes the 990v6 midsole different from other NB reps?
The ENCAP midsole design — a soft foam core surrounded by a polyurethane rim — is accurately replicated here, providing the distinctive cushioning feel that makes the 990 series famous for all-day comfort.
