Quality shoe that is light and sturdy. I walk a few miles in the mornings and have never had shoes this comfortable before. The laces that came with the shoe are low quality but I replace my laces with 3M reflective laces anyway. I will buy these shoes again.

I have been using the 990v series of cross trainers for almost ten years now, and will not buy any others. They are comfortable, durable, conservatively stylish, and just right for exercising, running, walking and casual wear.

I've had multiple pairs of these shoes and multiple pairs of New Balance shoes in general and I have never been disappointed.

I was 79 and in "decent" shape when COVID-19 hit. I adopted a 2020 regimen of walking up to a 10K daily at a 17 minute per mile pace. Now 80, and some 10 months and 1700+ miles later, my shoes needed replacing! I have used New Balance shoes in the past and found them excellent. These shoes are far more more comfortable than I expected, and made me realize how important good shoes are to sustain this pace without pain.
I'd also recommend:
For the past decade I have walked the golf course in TrueLink shoes. Excellent.

It fits different from my previous purchases. I buy two pairs every year. Very expensive and no promo code. I have been buying them forever.

I've always worn "wide" in other brands, but I should have ordered "4W" (extra wide?) with New Balance.

I've worn New Balance for years. These are probably the best fit with great comfort I've experienced. I'm a die-hard customer and will stay that way with shoes like these! Thanks New Balance.

I have bought the grey 990v5 twice and the blue 990v5 once. This shoe is comfortable and a great substitute for the white new balances that every dad that smokes briskets and that is in "North Texas BBQ Addicts" wear. This shoe says, "I am a dad, but I have good taste in shoes".

I walk daily on very creaky knees. These shoes fit wonderfully from the first step. The shoes have helped lessen the pain in my knees.

I bought these for my husband for his work which entails greeting and setting up Golfers and a gold Club. His only comment was that he found them a bit heavy and there is a rub on his inside ankle that he hopes will break in in time, other than than said he likes them. I bought them in black but perhaps if he still likes them I will get them in that attractive grey. Thank you for getting them to us in good conditions. Your company shows they have pride in their product.

This is my go to shoe for nearly everything I do outside the houserunning, walking, biking, many sports, daily kicking around, and more. Last pair lasted for years.

Received my new 990v5 shoes and they looked great. Laced them up and slipped them on and they feel good. I've worn them for about a week now and I am pretty happy. Shoe laces are old style white cotton.....might consider upgrading to a parachute cord type lace, but the white color accents to reflective "N" on the side of the shoe nicely. My only disappointment was to find out that despite all the labeling and advertising that this product is made in the USA, but the story is a little deeper than that. Apparently they are assembled in the USA, but it turns out many of the materials, including the outer soles come from China. Had I known that first, I probably wouldn't have spent so much on these shoes. I paid more than I have ever paid for these shoes because they were supposedly an American/USA product. Disappointed.
