Customer Reviews New Balance Made in US 990v5

This new version of a classic shoe seems, so far, to be excellent -- good fit, comfortable, good looking. It is not quite as comfortable a walking shoe, for me, as the New Balance shoes designed specifically for walking (for example 847), and the 990 has gotten very, very expensive. But it's comfortable, and in my opinion the gray of this shoe is a welcome relief from all-white walking shoes. I marked fit as true to size -- by which I meant true to size for New Balance; I wear a 10W in Rockport, and a size 11 4EEEE in New Balance.

nice product - good to be able to support USA manufacturing

comfortable and supportive walking shoe. I also need 2e width. Excellent shoes.

New balance is the only company that makes their shoes in the U.S.A. And only they make 6e wide shoes that got comfortably

Oh I've been with NB for a very very long time just absolutely P U R E quality and its fabulous that I can buy direct from Earth City I live in Springfield MO so I get my products overnight now this new v5 is off the chart in quality nice and roomy flexible strong and has the beautiful 990 look I walk 8 miles a day and do weights so I rotate my group of 990 shoes and I WILL buy another pair of v5's soon as my old 999v4 is on its last leg but for a non walker they still have tons of miles left on them "" if you can find a better shoe buy it""" even our UPS driver who brings the shoes wears and works in NB black work shoes but this buy direct this is fantastic BECAUSE there have been knock off's and incorrect shoe numbers so I am buying direct ALWAYs from now on and I KNOW I am getting my shoes directly from the people who made them not cheap but one must consider what they are getting and if you buy 2 pair and rotate them and take care of them they will last for years

These shoes have a great overall feel to them. My only qualm is that with the 405 insoles inserted, my heel slips a bit on my right shoe.

best sneakers ever worn for my aching feet . highly recommended

I ordered these for my husband, and he is extremely happy with them. He says that they are very comfortable and provide the right amount of cushioning and support for his needs (walking, running, and he will probably also wear them for biking). Two thumbs up!!!

Look forward to wearing shoes often. Happy with look and feel.

I've loved the quality of New Balance for years. The fact that they're available in NARROW sizes is a bonus!

These are the best shoes I have ever owned. I'm a grandma with big feet - men's size 10, 6E. They are comfortable from the first moment of wearing them. I have owned 5 pairs of these shoes. I worked in a library and was on my feet much of the day and now I'm retired with sore feet. They are great shoes!

I but these because they're made in America and they're the best quality shoes I've worn.

I currently own the New Balance 990V3, 990V4, and 990V5. The 990V3 and 990V4 fit true to size. The 990V5 fits 1/2 size too long for me though. I would recommend the New Balance 990V5. I own Adidas Ultra Boost and I like the 990 better. The 990 continues to impress me. It has the right amount of firmness and stiffness to the midsole. Again would recommend go down 1/2 size if you are between sizes.

I wear these shoes on the daily for comfort, overall very pleased. Thank you New Balance!

I am so pleased with this product. It really saves my feet. 990v5 Men's Shoes is exactly what my feet have been lacking. I can't understand how I've been living without 990v5 Men's Shoes.

I'll never buy another type of shoe other than these New Balance shoes. My feet are normally sore after running but these helped cure it

Fantastic workout shoe it really doesn't get any better than this on the treadmill. Do your feet the favor!

Not sure why the fit description says order a half size up. I have the blue New Balance 574 that Bean sells and have to wear an 11. I have also purchased Brooks Running shoes from Bean in an 11. In Bean Brand shoes, like Blucher Mocs, etc. I wear a 10. So I am not sure what the fit description is comparing these to but when compared to other sneakers or running shoes they do not run small and I would not recommend ordering a half size up. If anything they run large. That being said, they are excellent quality. Expensive but you get what you pay for. Plus they are made in the USA. I have been wearing the NB 990 for about 10 years and have yet to find a shoes that are better.

My favorite NBz off them all. v4 or v5 this sneaker is spicy

these shoes are really comfortable and are good for my heel spurs. no pain. really are enjoying them, and would certainly buy another pair.

My order had a delivery issue and they were willing to wok with me and get the product to me. I am willing tti o pay a premium for a shoe and they treated me as a premium customer. The she size fit and quality meet expectations.

After my Poditrist recommed I wear New Balance because they have wide and extra wide widths. I have no problems since wearing these shoes.

These shoes are a great fit. They are very comfortable for walking. I use them for hiking as well.
