New Balance is set to launch a signature lifestyle sneaker for MLB star Shohei Ohtani with the upcoming release of the 990v6. This particular model will be a Japan-exclusive, reflecting Ohtani’s roots and connection to Japanese baseball. The shoe features a mix of collegiate shades of forest green and navy blue, with a stylish white frame and an aged midsole that adds a touch of nostalgia. It’s designed to celebrate the MLB’s Tokyo Series, bringing American baseball teams to Japan. Ohtani’s partnership with New Balance has already yielded the FuelCell Ohtani 1 cleat and trainer models, indicating his growing influence in the brand’s direction. This new release is anticipated to resonate well with fans and collectors alike, especially given its limited availability and special design. Stay tuned for further updates as the release date approaches!
