Customer Reviews New Balance M990V4

Poor foot support for me.

I’ve been wearing 990v4’s for years and i love love love them was happy i found these because my size has been hard to find since they came out

The 990’s are very comfortable. I was wearing NB 1260v5 and very satisfied. I was sorry to hear NB had discontinued that style. The 990’s run slightly longer but after wearing them it’s not a problem. Keeps me from occasionally pressing against the toe like my 1260’s. The heel cup is snug and very supportive and is actually better that what I’ve been wearing. After a week of wear I’m very satisfied.

Great sneakers! Everything corresponds to the specified sizes. My size is 11.5 US (29.5 cm), foot length is 29cm, all sneakers take half a size larger-fits perfect! Good quality! Very well fit as casual shoes, go well with jeans.

This particular New Balance shoe is a great fit for my husband, who has a very narrow foot, size 16 B

I ordered these for my mom, who has a foot injury, as prescribed by her podiatrist. They are in men’s sizes, so a quick call to Zappos to ask for a conversion and I was helped to pick the perfect size. My mom is thrilled with the sizing and the comfort.

I've worn these for over a year and they still look great! Very comfortable!

Great Shoe! I bought the M990V4 because of its ratings and wasn't disappointed. Usually, I wear a size 12, but the last pair of New Balance I tried on felt really small. This led me to think the shoes ran a half size small, so, as an experiment, I went up a half size and went to the EE width. I couldn't be happier with the fit! The 12 1/2 was perfect and the extra width made all the difference. I tried several pairs of socks, both thin and thick, and the shoes felt great with all of them, just cinched them up a bit tighter as needed. Great walking shoes and I've received some nice compliments on them, so that's a plus. I can recommend this shoe easily. Just keep in mind they run a bit small. Great service and quick shipping from Zappos! Thanks!

True to size and a little bit narrow for me (the wide was not available), but it stretched within less than an hour of use. Extremely comfortable and great looking. I have used these for light treadmill running (2-3 miles at a time), without issues so far. Great buy.

The men's 990v4 8 1/2 B seems a bit short. I am currently wearing a women's size 11 B which is fine, however, because the men's shoe was on sale, I thought I'd try the 8 1/2 B as that is the usual size I wear. The men's shoe is a nice shoe, however, I like to have slightly more room for my toes, thus I returned the men's 8 1/2 B shoe. I plan to order either a men's 9 B or a women's 11 B of the 990v4 or 990v5. Zappos is my go to shoe source.

It's a good value!

These are great shoes. I have AA width feet and they are the first running shoes that have really fit in years. I did have to get a half size larger than my original order. I have worn these almost every day for 10 weeks. I walk, on average, 9,000 steps/day on sidewalks. Works out to 63,000 steps, or about 600 miles. I oversupinate (roll my foot outward), so I wear out shoes quickly. I'm beginning to feel them breaking down. Ordering a couple of new pairs. It is so hard to find AA width shoes. I rated "style" 3 stars only because, with my feet, I have a choice between New Balance and New Balance for running shoes. After years and years, I'm getting a little tired of their logo, even though I appreciate the fact that they make hard-to-find sizes.

Liked them but very expensive.

Fit and size were spot on and I like the "not in your face" color and style!

I wear a 11.5 4E so it’s pretty hard finding shoes that look good and fit well. I bought the Castle Rock Grey pair 7 months ago and they are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn.

the first pair my son is wearing, the 2nd pair for my husband. Very comfortable.........

I bought this for comfort. I have bought 6 pairs and end up returning ALL of them except this one. My son is picky and comfort shoes is a MUST when playing sports. He normally wears 9.5, but we bought size 10 wide and it fit perfectly. I am buying a 2nd pair for my husband.

I wear 11 in Made in USA running shoes these 11.5 were just that half size too large which made the fit a bit sloppy. The same NB shoe in 11 fits perfectly. I’ve noticed that the made in China shoes run 1/2 size small so if it’s made in China I order and usually fine a good fit in 11.5 size.

AT FIRST, HAD A REALLY HARD TIME FIGURING OUT HOW TO LACE IT AND THEN IT FELT A BIT TOO SMALL....SNUG. BUT AFTER WALKING AROUND FOR A WHILE, IT'S PERFECT.

perfect !

The quality of the shoe is awesome. The outsole material has excellent traction

Best shoe purchase ever! I am 210lb ,6.3 feet and this shoe fits perfectly. I have tried many other brands like Asics, Nike , adidas ,etc 990 is the most comfortable of all.

I used New Balance width and length chart, and ordered that size based on my largest foot. Fit is excellent. Shoes force a flat strike, limit my tendency to supinate.
