I was told by New Balance customer service the 990v5 was a good replacement for the 940v4 which is no longer available in my size. I found this not to be true as the toe box is narrower in 990 plus they are much more expensive. Hopefully, New Balance will come out with 940v5.

I've worn a size 12 regular NB for years and went with the 12 wide this time great shoe. The wider toe box is similar to some workout shoes.

I am an extremely fat female. I am 5.2 270lbs. I work standing up with concrete flooring. These sneakers are perfect because my ankles don't swell and I don't do the fat girl waddle. Also I have an additional pair that I use for gym and walking. The price point maybe a bit high but your health and mobility depend on it...please bring back the black on black 990 v5...

My favorite all-around show for everything! Have the gray ones and strongly thinking about buying the black ones! They just never go on sale or ID.me discount applies. Guess I just gotta pay full price. But worth every penny!

Wearing a 14 narrow, and wanting a shoe made in America, I was delighted to find these shoes. They did not disappoint. Fit well, made well, look great!

I have worn orthotics for over 45 years due to damage the posterior tibialis. The orthotics fit into shoes easily and now I have many days without pain. Lighter shoes just don't have the support I need. These are not lightweight shoes, but if you need support, check these out.

My feet were properly measured and I know exactly what the size is supposed to be. I ordered 3 pair of shoes recently (different types) and this was the only pair that fit perfectly. The others had the incorrect shoe length. I don't know if it will be the case for every size in this brand/line, but I can tell you the fit with my pair was flawless. They are also very comfortable for walking long distances. If you are going to be on your feet, these are good shoes.

The fit is what makes this style above all the other brands. Well made, makes it worth the investment. Quality and function are most important in today's market.

I've worn this shoe for years now. It's my go-to for daily walking and other uses as it fits my narrow, flat feet very well. I've searched all over for this shoe in my size with no luck...until Zappos. TY for supporting we weird footed folks!

These are my third pair of 990's and they continue to be a reliable, comfortable walking shoe. I can wear them all day and find the to be comfortable. They are true to size and are available in a variety of colors.

Fits great. Comfortable when sitting, walking, running, skateboarding, mild hiking and of course laying down. It's a bit of an investment but worth every penny. For someone who has semi-flat and semi-wide feet, these shoes are probably the greatest one so far.
I also got these because I'm a new Dad, and for that reason, I am obligated to buy a pair of these. All the cool Dads wear these.

My sole purpose for purchasing the 990v5 is for walking. I found them very comfortable right out of the box. The quality is exceptional and stylish. Thank you New Balance for your craftmanship.

Right out of the box these fit like a glove. No break in required. Most shoes cramp my toes these don't. Great pair of quality shoes. I've owned New Balance before and knew what I was getting.

This is my husband's every day and do everything in this shoe. After a long out of stock status it became available. Our problem this time was the online order system allowed me to order the shoe only to find out the next day or so, it was actually unavailable. He has a very wide foot, so the sizing for him is very important. Time to find a way to make more shoes in a timely manner.
