The original 990 designers were tasked with creating the best running shoe on the market. The finished product exceeded expectations. When they first hit the shelves in 1982, 990s sported elegant pastel colorways as well as a triple-digit price tag that had never been seen before. For running enthusiasts and trendsetters, 990s were a brand synonymous with quality and refined taste. Since 1982 there have been design updates, and a wider selection of colorways, however, the imitated status symbol spirit that 990s offered has never changed. Simply put, 990s are so excellent, we have never stopped making them. The 990v2s boast a premium leather upper construction and ABZORB midsole cushioning.
