The New Balance Women's FuelCell 996v6 is a tennis shoe in a B (standard) width. It continues the line of the brand's signature 996 model. The upper is a lightweight engineered mesh that is breathable and flexible, with enough protection for play.
FuelCell foam runs the full length of the midsole for energy return and propulsion. A top-loaded shank adds torsional stability. The 996v6 has improved lockdown through the heel and forefoot. The traditional tongue has "wings," a half sleeve that helps hold the foot in place, and a PU medial guard protects the toe.
The outsole uses non-marking NDurance rubber for durability in high-wear areas. An Ortholite insert provides underfoot comfort. This style runs narrow, and a wider D-width option is available.
