In the spring of 1978, NB gave their designers the go-ahead on an ambitious undertaking: develop the very best running shoe, regardless of the time it takes or the money it costs. The result was the 990, a shoe that’s been raising the bar on quality ever since. With the Kid's FuelCell 990v6, the legend continues. This kids’ shoe modernizes the iconic style with reflective details throughout the upper and a FuelCell midsole that adds a propulsive feel.
