Customer Reviews New Balance Made in US 990v5

I buy these shoes for everyday wear and will continue to buy them as I need the extra support that they provide. They are extremely comfortable, and run true to size. The only thing I don't like is that the cost keeps going up with each new version. When they get to $200 I will probably shop elsewhere.

I am walking about 1 1/2 miles every day during the shut down and love the shoe. it is comfortable and has the wide toe-box that I buy NB's for. The only thing I don't like is the price, but I will pay extra for a shoe made in the USA.

990 is wonderful. New 880 has disappointing narrower front which hurts my feet.

I use it to go for my 2-hour daily walk of about 6 miles on the beach. The first time was hard on my feet and I developed a blister otherwise I would rated it 5 stars. I am a little disappointed and hope that the future will be better. The walk can be very uneven depending on the tides and the waves.

I can always depend upon New Balance to have the highest quality.

few lines that carry extra wide sizes. reliable, wish there were more color selections in extra wide ( 4E, 6E )

Love them. Classic sneaker that never lets me down!

I started running in NB 's back in the 70's now I walk in them. I've tried others but come back to NB.

These are a replacement for the previous version. Love these shoes and put lots of miles on them

Love the red color and the feel of the shoe. Have been running (and now walking) for 40 years. Cannot beat them.

Great fit and support. Should have bought them a year ago

I had 2 pairs of the 990 V4 New Balance. I have had and looked for a decent pair of sneakers for comfort, sports, running, and everyday use. The 990 V4 I had for years wore them out. I noticed they changed the style for the V5 in the past with other brands that i was able to find a pair of sneakers that didn't worsen my pain. Long story. I was usually disappointed when they reinvented a line of sneakers they were never as good as the preceding model. I am very happy to say that the V5 have retained the V4 quality in every way that i can see so far and I hope to have them for years to come. Very happy with the outcome of the new/upgraded 990 line.

was first introduced to these shoes back in jan 1998 ft. benning, GA for my basic training and AIT-11B/Infantry US Army and now over 20 years later i'm still with the 990's just ordered my v5's should get them in Friday. Sure they are expensive but they are worth the money and this video really underscores how these shoes are made by real people, real americans and that makes me very proud. Keep up the great work New Balance!!

These are still supreme for comfort and craftsmanship and so happy they are Made in USA. This is my first pair but it won't be my last

Very comfortable and feels good on the runs very well made!!

I have walked over 100 miles in these shoes and they feel great. I had a pair of 990 V4s and they lasted over 1 year walking 4 to 5 days a week. They are expensive but well worth the price. It's the only walking shoe I wiil buy

NB all day long . I will never buy Nike again ................................

Bought the US990V5 to replace my old 490 New Balance that had way too many years and miles on them. I got my first pair in the early 70's while working in a sporting goods store during Grad school (yes, I'm an old codger). With many other models in in the intervening years, I've always appreciated the quality of NB, especially, the American made models. My new pair definitely has not dampened that appreciation.

Daily footwear. Very comfortable. Insole wears to quickly.

I use New Balance inner sole inserts, with the originals removed. But that should not cause 'the issue'. When you're walking through a quiet lobby and the only sound you hear is sound of your left shoe, "cweak, cweak, cweak, ... " that's pretty disconcerting and, frankly, makes you feel rather CONSPICUOUS. The footwear more impervious to this annoyance is the dark gray MW877G Walking. But I'm looking for good higher limb protection from real activity impact. I'm not sure the MW877G is fully up to that.

I am an avid walker. I find the support these shoes give to be the best I've tried. The heel support is great. The arch support is as good as it gets.
