DTLR, a well-known retailer that is famous for its unique and colorful shoe partnerships, has once again teamed up with New Balance to offer the 990v4 "Festive." This association has a track record of providing extraordinary hues across numerous New Balance designs.

In one instance, the rich heritage of Virginia was the inspiration for the coloring of the 2002R, followed by volcanic activity that turned out the idea for the palette of the 9060 that was released most recently.

The latest version, the 990v4 "Festive," continues in the footsteps of the wildly popular kids' exclusive 990v4 Wild Style 2.0. This model is intended to make a splash with its vibrant and whimsical appearance, which is just right for the winter holiday season.

DTLR's interpretation of a kids' special 990v4 sports a volt green top that is similar of the well-known Nike Kobe 6 Grinch. In addition to the volt green outer, the shoe has red overlays on the toe box, lace set, and heel logo.

The overall appearance is given an extra dose of sophistication by the addition of silver accents on the recognizable "N" emblem and heel tab, along with black on a tongue tag.

These details contribute to the overall appearance of the shoe. Both ease and toughness are ensured by the sneaker's construction, which consists of a mesh foundation with leather or nubuck reinforcements.

The crimson image of a Christmas tree that is seen on the insole is a reference to the holiday of Christmas. The footwear has a white and green 990v4 midsole that is matched with a translucent rubber outer sole unit to combine style and utility. The outsole is made of transparent rubber.
