The sneaker’s upper is constructed from nubuck and mesh, creating a contrast between textures in order to draw attention to the subtle colorway. Other features include 3M detailing, a reflective set of secondary laces and a logo-molded toggle, inspired by the 990 line’s functional origins as a running sneaker in the 1980s. The JJJJound x New Balance 990v4 design is finished with JJJJound branding on the heel and footbed, as well as New Balance’s signature “N” logo and tongue tag.
