New Balance 990v6 “Black / Silver” (M990BK6)
The New Balance 990v6 “Black / Silver” delivers a bold, streamlined take on the iconic performance-lifestyle silhouette. Its predominantly black upper combines breathable mesh with dark grey leather overlays and black premium pigskin suede, creating layered texture across the chunky construction. Reflective silver 3M detailing adds contrast and visibility, while reflective “N” logos sharpen the profile on both sides. A 990v6 mark appears on the tongue, reinforcing the model’s signature identity. Underfoot, the white-and-grey midsole pairs ENCAP cushioning with responsive FuelCell foam for a supportive, springy feel. Designed for everyday wear, this monochromatic colorway suits sneaker enthusiasts seeking classic New Balance comfort with a contemporary, athletic edge.

CheapestNew Balance 990v6 “Salmon” (U990SR6)$66
PriciestNew Balance 990v2 Kithstrike Rose Rose (M990K2)$672We always compare the lowest price a colorway is currently on sale for somewhere: the cheapest entry point, usually for one specific size. The comparison stays within the same age group, because a kids size (TD/PS/GS) is priced differently than an adult size. Because the price varies per size, your size may come out a little higher. To keep the comparison fair we leave out the most and least expensive two percent — the resale outliers, and the price axis is logarithmic so both the cheap and the pricey end stay readable. We refresh the numbers several times a day; last update 6 Sep 2026.
Hypescore × price
Hype doesn't have to be expensive. Each dot is a New Balance 990 colorway (of the 120 with a Hypescore): the further right, the more hype, and the higher a dot sits, the cheaper the sneaker. This sneaker is the photo with the red ring (Hypescore 63). Below the RRP they're called meltdowns: top-left the quiet price meltdowns (cheap, but little attention yet), top-right the radiating meltdowns — lots of hype and well below retail, the hottest deals. Above the RRP sit the grails: bottom-right the radiating grails (loved and pricey), and bottom-left the potential grails — pricey with little hype. That can simply be too expensive, but it's often where fresh drops and collabs appear that are too new to have gathered grail votes; their hype still has to build.
