The founder of Aime Leon Dore and the creative director of New Balance, Teddy Santis, debuted his first “MADE in USA” collection of NB earlier this year. Under this collection, he presented quirky designs and styles. He gave impressive makeovers to 990v1, 990v2, and 990v3 sneaker designs. Adding more to his catalog, Teddy now reimagined the 990v1 shoe in “Macadamia Nut” color palette.

The shoe’s description on the shopping website of New Balance reads:

“The 990’s original designers were tasked with creating the single best running shoe on the market. The finished product more than lived up to its billing. When it hit shelves for the first time in 1982 the 990 sported an elegantly understated grey colorway, and a then unheard of three-figure price tag. For avid runners and ahead of the curve tastemakers alike, the 990 was a mark of quality and superior taste.”

The description continues:

“There have been updates to the design since ’82, and more color options, but the 990’s aspirational status symbol aura has never changed. Simply put, the 990 is the shoe so good, that we’ve never stopped making it.”

The complete uppers of these shoes are covered with the perfect balance of premium hairy suede and fine mesh overlays. The rugged beige appearance of the shoe is highlighted with the touches of neutral and black tones. Hits of red are used for branding that further spirits up the look.

The toe boxes are constructed with neutral toned finest meshes. These toes are then outlined with hairy suede of brownish beige color. Moreover, nubucks of color similar to toe meshes are employed on the lateral sides. The sleek nubuck forms the eyelets that hold the creamy white lace fasteners.

Furthermore, the neutral textiles are used for the tongue flaps of these units. Towards the collars, these tongues boast New Balance and MADE in USA markings. The lateral sides fashioned with nubuck are topped with bold black N-logo, which is carved with black textiles.

In addition to the tongues, the signature NB insignias are also placed on the creamy white insoles. When you move from collar areas towards the heel counters, it appears that the heel tabs are black, while the remaining heel counters are covered in hairy suedes.

Ultimately, the off-white midsoles that are incorporated with ENCAP cushioning are nicely combined with the black outer sole units. Regarding its widely loved ENCAP midsole, which is incorporated into the footwear, the brand’s official website reads:

“ENCAP midsole cushioning combines lightweight foam with a durable polyurethane rim to deliver all-day support.”

The new New Balance 990v1 "Incense with Macadamia Nut" shoes will be released on July 7. Each pair of these Teddy Santis designs will cost $189.99. Get yours from NB's official e-commerce website and other authorized stores.
