Customer Reviews New Balance Made in US 990v5

Actually bought the grey 990v5 size 9.5 Wide, but it ended up being 2 inches gap in the front, so I would suggest to go half a size down if you have wide feet. Only got these black ones in person at the new balance store, got a size 8.5 X Wide(Didn't know they were X Wide). So I kept the grey ones I bought online, and bought these black ones in person. Gifted grey ones to my father and hes loving them, all he wore was sketcher shoes so these are a big upgrade. Only problem I feel is that you have to break them in, wear them for awhile until they become comfortable 100%. My feet hurt at the start when they were new, and they only hurt when I stood still, but continually walking was no problem. They are perfect now, no pain at all! First time buying new balance, and especially the 990v5 as I heard its comfortable, no regrets. I wore ultraboosts before this, I'd say they are equally comfortable, but these are more stylish. They should last me some time, but I'm already going to buy more.

Excellent jogging walking shoes. I find the New Balance 990 to be the best jogging and walking shoes

Every detail exudes quality. Comfortable and made to last. Highly recommend the New Balance 990V.

My son is 17 years old and was suffering from pain in his back we desired to spend money and buy him good shoes I read about this shoes and prioress very expensive but I was hoping to help him with his back pain he is Nike guy so he said he will try it after he got it and he said back pain almost gone his feet no aching and no smells his foot was smelly he loves this shoes he said I will never buy anything else but new balance we are very happy

Life long Brooks fan. I was told to try the 990v5, so I did and all I can say is Wow!!! Brooks are great shoes but if you wear them all day I notice the cushioning starts to feel to soft and actually make my legs and feet hurt after a long day of walking. The 990v5 hold up all day long for me. I can walk for 6-8 hours at an amusement park and the shoes feel the same as when I put them on in the morning. As far as sizing I have a normal foot. I've always been an 11 in brooks and most Nike. I tried going down in New Balance and I didn't care for the feel. So I wear true to size.

Looked extensively for "Made in USA" workout/running shoes. Couldn't be more pleased with my purchase. Well worth the few extra dollars for this quality product.
