New Balance, a brand born in Boston, Massachusetts allows Kith to tap into the deep American roots of their archives to bring forth the 99X Classics Collection comprised of the 990, 991, 993. 996, 997, and 998. This classic design series first came to life in 1982 breaking ground with the 990 model and since then re-designing and re-vamping the models using premium materials and executions. Establishing a new design formula for future iterations, New Balance procures the pinnacle of classic Americana history by using premium pigskin suede, mesh, leather, and 3M materials executed in classic New Balance colors - grey, navy, and black.
