My New Balance sneakers are perfect for someone, like myself, that has wide foot-size.

I have had several pairs over the years and this shoe is the best for my morning walk routine. Can't run anymore

Rmthats shoe was a wide shoe for wide feet. It's not the same 990 NB that I normally buy in the store. I returned the shoes to swap.

Perfect casual walking shoe. Fit and feel comparable to Mephistopheles match shoe.

I ordered these for my wife after she wore my pair and commented on how comfortable they are. She finds women's shoes often have too narrow a toe box. Men's shoes are wider and, therefore, fit better.

Fit extremely well. Tongue is no shorter than previous which maybe problematic for top of foot in the near future. Time will tell.

I am using these to simply get around comfortably. They have plenty of room on the toe and are very light,

I love the Comfort of the shoes and have been wearing NB shoes for many years the only complaint is the top of the mesh where your Big toe is gets worn out soon then the shoe it self. How long should the top Mesh last?

I only buy New Balance. I have quite wide feet, and New Balance caters extremely well to people with different foot widths. They also last for ages due to the quality of workmanship.

I purchased these shoes for two reasons: made in America and on-line views promoting their comfort and support. Comfort and support are imperative for me. I found these shoes to be very uncomfortable when walking in them, almost hard. I walk three+ miles a day, and after walks in these shoes my feet and back hurt and my legs felt fatigued. My last three pair of shoes were Hoke One One, and I have to admit that I became spoiled with their cushion and support. I think going to the NB 990v5 was too drastic a change, which made their discomfort even more pronounced. I hate to dis on a pair of shoes that are made in America, but this particular shoe is not the right shoe for me.

It is very difficult to find my size in any kind of shoe. The 990v comes in aa width. This size is basically rare. Thank you New balance

Comfort right from the start. I bought these shoes in advance of a trip to the parks at Disney World, thinking they need to be broke in. I'm sure I could have brought on my trip them fresh out of the box and would be enjoying the same comfort, traction, and support I feel now.

Wear most days as a casual sneaker. Comfortable right out of the box..

I still like this shoe, but it fits larger than previous generations of the same shoe I've had and the laces are more finicky to deal with (they are both harder to loosen and then tighten than previous generations of this shoe). My foot floats around more in this shoe than the older generations I've purchased previously.

Feel very light. I was surprised how light they are given all the cushioning and padding. May get another pair for casual everyday use, bought the first pair for running.

Have used the various versions of the 990 for years - it never disappoints. Comfortable for my power walks; great fit as well. Excellent NB product.

..nothing fits my 11.5 x 4e foot better than New Balance products, and i will continue to buy - but your marketing has lost me, as i am not a young black man or woman living in Metro City.

I've worn 2E 990 since they were available. I get this version and they fit very sloppy. Not happy with the change at all especially with the price.

Love the quality of these puppies. I think they'll age nicely into something that looks better a little worn.

I have severe pronation, otherwise known as flat feet. These are the only shoes I can wear with my custom orthotics.
