Customer Reviews New Balance Made in US 990v5

This is my third pair of 990's, started with version 2 10 years ago! Great shoe for everyday use, I do 10,000 steps a day in these!

I bought US 990v5 again. Now I own two pairs. One for working out. The other for lawn care. The fit for me is perfect. I am 11.5 and 2E width. Very comfortable. I was looking for a work boot, but decided to purchase another pair of the US 990v5 for lawn care because they fit so well.

Husband wears these every day, only one where his feet don't hurt.

I've run in New Balance, the 990 series, for decades. They are the best shoes on the market -- great stability, cushion, support. As long as I'm running, I'm only buying New Balance. Thank you!

I am a NB fan. It's the wider toe box that did it for me plus the shoe is sold in half sizes which makes for a better fit. I've been wearing the shoes for more than 30 years and can tell you skip Nike and Hoka running shoes just wore out waaaay to quick. I don't buy the shoe for the points or the discounts but because they fit and are comfortable. I'm to old to run but still wear a running shoe for walking. They last me about a year and I'll keep buying them as long as I can. Why would I switch....If it aint broke don't fix it. Make sure you get your feet measured each time you go to buy!!!

This is a top quality shoe. Fit and manufacturing is of the best quality. They are expensive, but I would buy them again. I would style them a little simpler as for my taste there are too many lines. No question the best quality and fit of any shoe I've ever owned.

I like very much this shoe , fits perfect, but is never on sale

This is my 5th 990 sneaker. I am very happy with the performance. They are stable and afford good cushioning. I walk in them every day about 4 miles and they consistently last 5-6 months. Will buy again

I love the product. It's the only walking shoe I buy. However, New Balance needs to get it's act together. Customer Service is laughable under Covid - the texting just didn't work (what happened to old fashioned email?). Covid also caused them to discontinue their custom shoes. We're 5-6 months into this Covid mess and New Balance needs to quit making excuses for poor service. Management should have figured it out by now. Might have to look for alternatives to the 990 v 5, not because of the product, but because of the company.

I have already filled out a survey for these shoes.

I use this shoe for running. It feels great and I would recommend this product for any runner.

For how many years (probably into double digits) I have bought the same shoe and have NEVER been disapointed. Well, different colors of course.

What prompted me to look into these shoes was a program I was watching which showed the NB manufacturing process here in America. I decided I owed myself a good sneaker so I took the plunge. I was pleasantly surprised by how well these sneakers fit as my size sometimes causes issues (9 wide). Without a break-in period, I wore these all day and was on my feet most of the time. They never bothered my feet, and my back wasn't killing me at the end of the day. The most expensive pair of shoes I've ever purchased but I can honestly say it was worth it.

Love the comfort and quality. Also love that they are US made

It is hard to find American made products especially sneakers, so glad I can proudly wear New Balance made in the USA, they feel great and look good too.

New Balance is the only company that sales a running shoes that fit me and is comfortable enough to run in.

I was told this the most comfortable shoe ever. I decided to try it, but was skeptical since I have a lot of foot pain. These fantastic! I recommend them to everyone now.

I have tired other models but I keep coming back to the 990. It is comfortable and durable. Worth the cost.

They are comfortable and fit my husband's 6E wide feet. Thank you!

Great looking shoes and it is very comfortable to wear. Also love the Made in USA quality. Highly recommended!

I have been wearing the 990 for many years. I wear the Made in USA 990 with Made in USA Socks and Made in USA Insoles. I can walk over 2000 miles per year. The only issue is they wear out and I have to get another pair. I typically walk on pavement so I need the shock absorption and since I want to walk every day stability helps to prevent any misstep or injury. This line of shoes was recommended to me by New Balance several years ago and they do make a difference.
