COLOR: Gray with Silver
The original designers of the 990 were tasked with creating the best running shoe on the market. The finished product lived up to expectations. When the 990 first hit shelves in 1982, it featured an elegant, subdued gray and a triple-digit price tag—unheard of at the time. For avid runners and trendsetters alike, the 990 set the standard for quality and taste. Since 1982, the model has been refined, and color options have expanded, but the 990's aura as a status symbol has never wavered. In short, the 990 is so perfect, we've never stopped producing it.
