Origins of a Legend
In the spring of 1978, New Balance designers were given a simple-sounding yet ambitious task: create a shoe that would stand alone at the pinnacle of the running market. Time and money were no object. It took four years of R&D to perfect it in 1982, and today that shoe is still synonymous with "the best."



Established 1982
The original that started it all. The 990v1 is our first archival model release from the 990 Version Series.

Nearly 40 years later…
Ruby accents have been added to pay homage to the upcoming 40th anniversary of the original launch.
