The beloved is getting its most contemporary makeover yet as have brought 3D printing to the beloved runner.

Dubbed the 990 Sport TripleCell, the new kicks reimagine the classic design for the modern runner and are highlighted by a brand new 3D-printed heel component – created in conjunction with Massachusetts-based Formlabs – that's made of a durable, high-rebound photopolymer resin. Couple that unique cushioning with a breathable mono mesh upper and you have a 990 that's 10% lighter than the .
