I loved this shoe when it first came out and I still love it today. I have run in this shoe in numerous countries, under numerous circumstances, and a wide verity of distances. It has never let me down. Great quality, great service, and great, intuitive app.

These are hands-down the most comfortable shoes I've worn. I have been buying this style of shoe for years because of the comfort and how long they last.

I think they're pretty good shoes as long as they're made in the USA

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)

Poor SupportGreat Support
Very heavy and stiff. Poor cushioning in spite of the thick sole. The 4e’s I ordered were more like an E or EE. Came up so high on the sides I got blisters on my ankles. After adding insoles, then arch supports, gave up and threw these overpriced sneakers in the trash. Worn several earlier version of the 990 - this is worst so far.

Also happy they are made in USA. Very important to me. Though I would not buy them if they weren't comfortable. I recommend you buy them

For a walking shoe it is to heavy , I thought it would be lighter

I returned these shoes because of the material. Most of the shoe right above the rubber was a felt type material and to me would not hold up well for the price. Not to mention just makes the shoe look out dated.
Others have complained about the weight and while heavier than many I didn't see where it would be much of an issue for me. Especially on days where you're running 5k or less.

Comfortable, looks good, made in USA what more could you want. A little lighter weight, maybe? But these are perfect. Thanks.

My older NB 990v4 shoes fit fine. I am returning the 990v5‘S because they are too tight and especially in width. Unfortunately my preferred style is out of stock in my size which is disappointing.

They're my everyday footwear and especially now since I'm retired. I won't lie though, a little cheaper price would be nice.

This is the most comfortable show I have ever worn. I plan on purchasing more versions of the 990 series to see if they live up to the v5 in comfort. Plus, the craftsmanship on my pair is world class. I'm very happy with my purchase. If your unable to try on a pair I would recommend going a half size down as I did, it made for the perfect fit.

I bought these shoes as a gift for my husband. I can't even speak on how comfortable they are because they made my husband's feet look really weird. Wish I could have gotten past how they looked to see if they were fabulous, but they looked so goofy we had to return them.
