New Balance Men's X-90 Trainers

Product Information

The X-90 has two different types of uppers, one with suede and textiles and another with synthetic leather and textiles. The striking white lace up boasts premium suede and nubuck detailing and is finished with a REVLite sole unit. However, it does seem to be decent enough to carry the wearer securely through everyday activities and casual workouts. The outsole’s tread pattern is a throwback to older models that still provides decent traction on common surfaces. While it may not be enough for long distance runs, this model's particular design is still perfect for a work setting or a full day of errands.

From its roots as a DIY-style fanzine to today’s global coverage, its pages have documented every colab, custom, limited edition, retro reissue, Quickstrike, Hyperstrike and Tier Zero sneaker released over the last two decades.While this model can definitely hold up to everyday wear, it’s still not a good idea to use it for more rugged activities.

Durable and sturdy but at the same time sporty; the New Balance X90 is capped off with front absorption technology. The timeless tones associated with the brand grew out of their refusal to sell-out to fickle trends back in the 1980s.Therefore, it only made sense that the brand would combine elements from each shoe within the range to create a brand new model. Thanks to an uncompromising focus on premium materials and innovation, not to mention timeless style, the 990 established itself as a legendary stayer and a progenitor of the ‘Dad-shoe’ trend. Lightweight and stylish, step out in confidence wearing the iconic X90 men's trainer by New Balance. Aside from its firm and supportive cushioning, the X-90’s REVlite midsole provides just as much responsiveness as other materials that are 30 percent heavier. At first glance, it doesn’t seem like this shoe would be so lightweight given its substantial midsole and bulky overlays, However, reviews show that this model is still able to give the runner a very lightweight and comfortable wear that lasts long and can easily carry them through both workouts and casual activities.

The rubber compound covering its outsole keeps the rest of the shoe safeguarded from potential damage, and its geometric tread pattern provides decent traction on paved roads. The X-90’s overall design was created by combining element’s from the brand’s 99x line, from the 1980’s all the way to modern day. In reference to its heavy-set roots – and with a tip of the hat to today’s trends – the X-90 has been propped up with an accentuated midsole profile that cups the heel for added support. As a result, the wearer feels much more comfortable throughout the day whether they’re going out in warmer or cooler temperatures.Please see my other listings for the range of shoes I am selling across Men’s and Women’s trainers, sandals and pool slides.

The New Balance 99x series of running shoes has long been considered a classic since the early 1980s. Reviews don’t really emphasize the X-90’s level of traction, so this obviously isn’t the shoes biggest selling point.
