Customer Reviews New Balance Made in US 990v5

Daily workout shoes. They are comfortable and supportive.

Unfortunately they didn't fit my weird foot so had to return them.

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.

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.

The fit is great for wife feet except not enough arch support for me. I know everyone 's arch is different. The price is high but I decided to spend because it is made in USA so I have high expectation on the quality. I plan to use it on a daily basis and will update on the durability of this shoes later on. So far, the look and fitting is great

The shoes fit nicely and are comfortable but the only draw back is heal and soul of the shoe wears too quickly.

Their neutral footbed is very comfortable for my orthodics. What other of your men's styles have neutral footbeds? Pls let me know so I can try them as well. Thanks

These shoes are great for bad knees and other foot problems. I never have issues with these shoes for walking.

My family all like the arch support in NB sneakers and we love the fact that NB does offer some styles in AA (narrow) fit. I'm caregiver to my "senior" brother who is in an assisted living facility and he has very narrow feet. NB has his captured audience! The only thing I do not like about NB is the extremely high price, especially since my brother is on a very limited income. In addition, I can never get them on sale for him or at a discount and that bothers me tremendously. I feel NB knows my brother is a captured audience and that's sad. There are very limited styles to choose from as well. I can only get them through online order. Stores never have AA width to try on in-house.

Really comfortable but so are other sneakers when they're new, will see if they withstand the test of time

I'm a 993 fan and this is my first time trying the 990s in years. Look good and fit as expected. Made in America a bonus.

My husband is very happy with these shoes. They are a replacement similar to ones he had before. Only thing is, they are pricey.

I need to change the inserts sooner than I expected. One major issue the tongue moves. Need to design it better to prevent this. I have two pairs and will buy more in the future. Note: need to make these in the states NOT China!

I used to walk my dog in them, and wear them on weekends when I was working (retired pharmacist ... used to wear Ecco shoes (ONLY) to work. I've always liked the 990's and had 3 pairs of the v4, which were wonderful. In the last 15 months, I have had two stress fractures, one in each ankle, and certainly NOT the fault of the shoe. My orthopedist told me that, as we all wear our sneakers out from the inside, not the outside, we should buy a replacement pair every year. The v5's are not quite as comfortable as the v4's, but they are still excellent.

Good fit comfortable and durable pair of shoes good looking too

I have been having some problems with my feet & this sneaker was recommended to me. It fits very well & it seems to give me good support.

I use these for walking, not running. Other than the shoes being a bit more narrow than the previous shoes, in the toebox, they fit well. The heel fits fine.

V5 is narrower in the toe box. Hill is not as comfortable, high on the outside. Does not look as good as v4 on my foot. I would not buy another would try a find a v4. This is my 5th pair of 990's

seems to run narrow in width compared to 993's, length is OK

So far these are really comfortable, nice and cushiony (?)

Well made, highly supportive shoe. ideal for those people who walk a lot each day.

Very comfortable and well fitting shoe. My best NB selection and happy they are made in the USA!

The 990v5 is a really comfortable casual shoe. It is sturdy and looks snazzy. My only complaint is I think this item is a bit overpriced for a casual shoe.
