The New Balance 990v6 Carhartt WIP Sculpture Center represents a collaboration between Nike, the iconic sneaker company, and Carhartt, the menswear brand that recreates a work clothing aesthetic into high-end fashion. This sports shoe infuses refinement with a ruggedness to create a style matched by high performance. The New Balance Carhartt WIP 990v6 Sculpture Center features an upper with a gray base made of mesh and synthetics overlaid with rich brown suede. The signature "N" on the side panel ties the look of the upper together, with a dark green suede that contrasts the Sail-colored laces while it complements the tonal hues of the tongue and sock liner. Our sneaker experts particularly enjoy the sole unit of this shoe for fusion of its graceful appearance and high-octane performance. The Sail and tan FuelCell midsole provides support, cushioning, and reactive energy return. The black rubber outsole grounds the shoe with grip and traction.
