New Balance are known for their no-frills approach to running performance, so when it came time to resurrect a classic for its 30th anniversary, they chose to err on the side of caution. Perhaps it’s all that ‘2012’ hoopla that has NB waiting until it’s been a full three decades before the New Balance 990 returns in its original form, but in any case, this bringback is one that’s long overdue. We’ve seen the 991, (Custom US) 993 996, 998 and 999 all return, and now the shoe that started this distance running series back in 1982 gets its due with an OG grey suede and mesh look that’ll have ‘Made in USA’ fans clamoring to complete their collections. Check out more after the jump, let us know where this classic silhouette compares to standbys like the 574 or the other 99-s and stick with Sneaker News for release info. via FNG
