New Balance Made in USA 990v6 Grey
Exact release: New Balance Made in USA 990v6 in Grey/White, men’s style M990GL6. Released November 4, 2022, it updates the long-running 990 family with a more streamlined overlay structure and FuelCell cushioning.
Construction and fit
The upper uses mesh with pigskin suede and synthetic overlays, reflective accents and a TPU back tab. FuelCell foam works with ENCAP cushioning for a mix of softness and support. New Balance says the model fits as expected for most people and offers it in several widths.
Production variation and price
Pairs produced after summer 2023 may show a US flag heel emblem instead of the earlier flying New Balance logo; the manufacturer notes that either can be supplied under M990GL6. The official US price was $199.99 when reviewed on September 4, 2026, matching the original $200 retail reference.
Buyer checks
- Confirm M990GL6 plus the exact width code.
- Recognize both manufacturer-approved heel-logo variants.
