I have a problem finding anything wide enough to even be comfortable. These are the best thing ive found in years.

These shoes have support like no other for my 53 year old feet! I now experience foot pain on the bottom of my feet and these are the best shoes I have found! The 990's to clarify. The lower priced New Balances do not offer the same support. These shoes are pricey but worth it for the comfort. They are made in USA and that makes me feel better about the price. I have a pair of v4 and now a new pair of v5. My only complaint with the v4 is the dark blue suede trim fades to a dirty brownish blue color. I'm hoping the v5's (blue also) will hold up better, but it's not a huge deal. The feel is the important part.

They are my every day shoe. I wish they were made in more fun colors.

Have just worn them once, but they fit very comfortably. I have wide feet, with bunion on one foot, so finding comfortable shoes which don't require a break-in period is hard. These shoes fit very comfortably the first time I put them on.

I use these sneakers on a daily basis, the looks, the feel, and the comfort are unmatched by any imported junk
..... Proudly made in the USA and it definitely shows!!

Great support and very durable. I have been wearing this model series (994,990...) for ~30 years. That's right ~30. From jogging for personal reasons, work related (including with a dignitary here and there in protection services and multiple years on tactical teams) and to maintain health after retiring.
Wogging mostly after retirement (my term for mixed walking and jogging, an age and low center of gravity thing).

Need to remind myself that when I can order a narrow 'B,' to go up half a size which is my true size. I've spent most of my life sizing down because my foot is so narrow and low-volume. Too bad there aren't more options in narrow sizes, not just from New Balance, but from anyone.

Really like the shoe but it is too expensive to buy again. Will probably go back to Brooks because of the price.

The 990v5, 6e, shoes that I purchased recently are excellent. I use them for my daily 1-hour power-walk and they feel quite comfortable. The purchase transaction proceeded smoothly and timely.

My son loves these sneakers. He said they are quite comfortable as he stands on his feet all day to work.
The shipping was super fast, too.

I've worn New Balance shoes for many years because they FIT, they're ATTRACTIVE, and they LAST.

For me these are the best walking shoes. I have had several pairs and they always hold up.

I don't have any negative comments. This fits great, is made in the USA, and meets all of my expectations. I looked at a lot of shoes. I was looking for a correct size toe box, something that was good for over-pronation, accommodated orthotics, and felt great as well as being well constructed. Folks, this is it and well worth the money!

I’ve been wearing NB 990 for years and wouldn’t think of choosing any other brand… this shoe is perfect for my running style. It has everything I require in a running shoe to include comfort, stability and a little heavy for the way I strike the pavement which is perfect. Love it!!!

I gave him a pair for his birthday a little early because his back and feet were hurting him. These are his favorite shoes he won't wear anything else. He was so happy to get them and they fit his feet perfectly. No more pain! These shoes are always on back order so glad I finally went to NB web site to get them without any problems.

I have been buying 990's for over 20 years so I am invested in the product. Bought Black and silver and have only worn them a couple times as I still have a pair of 990v5 that I use for exercise.

My go to shoe for my walking activities. Better than a running shoe for walking, more sturdy that supports the whole foot. Moderate pronating support in the heel.

I wear these in an Operating room all day everyday. Concrete floors are unforgiving. The New Balance 990v5 is very forgiving and gets me through some rough days.

I was obsessed with old school NB running shoes but these are almost as good! Really like but they do seem to wear out on the heel tread pretty fast .
