New Balance 990v3 Grey White

New Balance 990 Grey with white mesh is the version we recommend to anyone entering this line for the first time. The white mesh opens the piece and lightens its visual weight so it looks lighter than it really is, which answers the biggest objection new buyers raise about this line.

New Balance 990 with white mesh against the monochrome versions

Monochrome versions look heavier and more serious, while white mesh breaks the mass and spreads the eye. Practically, the first hides dirt better and the second looks lighter on the foot. Anyone finding this line visually bulky should start with the white mesh.

The material up close

During inspection we noticed the white mesh here is double-layered and held taut between the suede panels, so it does not bulge under pressure. That is a point separating this line from others, since mesh on cheaper models is a single layer that bulges with wear and loses its shape.

Fit and comfort

The last is comfortable and wider than the slim models, and the ENCAP sole gives support for long periods standing. To settle sizing before ordering, our WhatsApp concierge takes your foot length in centimetres and names the number directly.

Looks that suit grey and white

It works with denim, black, beige and sportswear. For a lighter base there is New Balance 530, for a more premium grey New Balance 2002R, and for a technical character New Balance 1906.
