Materials and fit

The M990AL3 upper is constructed from a combination of leather, suede, and textile. Suede panels add texture depth and help maintain a clean appearance, leather elements improve durability and hold the shape, and textile inserts enhance ventilation and make the pair feel lighter. This combination makes New Balance 990v3 x Teddy Santis practical and comfortable for regular wear.

Inside, there’s a soft lining that reduces the risk of chafing and provides a pleasant feel against the foot. The lacing helps fine-tune lockdown, and the last shape is designed for a comfortable all-day fit.

Additionally:

• A mixed suede/leather/textile upper strikes a balance between support and breathability;

• A cushioning sole softens each step and reduces strain during long walks;

• Textile inside helps maintain a comfortable microclimate and makes the fit feel softer.
