Initially I ordered a 10 wide 2e (my Brannock size is a 10 E) and I found them to be a tad too long. Returned them and order a 9.5 wide and they fit perfect. I have flat/wide feet that over pronate and these shoes are comfortable. Haven't used an orthotic in them yet but they will take them easily. Definitely a chunky dad shoe, but I dig the style especially with long white socks and shorts hah.

NB 990 is an awesome sneaker for my arthritic feet, fits my custom insole and allows me to walk miles without the usual pain. I don't want to take them off.

I wear my shoes daily and find even brand new that they were immediately comfortable and provide excellent support. In fact with my previous pair, we were in Bryce Canyon during winter when I forgot my hiking boots and had only my New Balance shoes. But I discovered in the snow that they provided excellent traction - and insulation from the sub zero cold. With that I was hooked on their superior quality.

I haven't had a pair of these in over 20 years. I'm glad that they are so comfortable and fit well. I see the quality so far is amazing.

I recently got into New Balance about a few years ago and I'm super happy to have purchased these. Every style is super comfortable. You can tell the great quality in this shoe and it's a classic style that goes with everything.

This was a great line but too much tinkering has happened with the shoe. Stiff and dead out of the box. Not a lot of cushion like previous 990 shoes. As a big person I can compact most shoes cushioning but these feel like I’ve worn them for months already. probably supportive but so hard underfoot that I’ll pass. disappointing. glad it’s an easy return with Zappos

This might be the only high quality athletic shoe that comes in a very narrow (AA) width. I added an insert for heel comfort reasons, but these shoes are great. I have had at least four pair of these shoes, and these are the best yet. My main activity is pickle ball - indoors and outdoors - and these shoes are perfect.

Best, most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. Love them! Well made and long lasting! Purchased another pair in case New Balance ever discontinues the style.

I buy New Balance tennis shoes because they are 1) comfortable, 2) last, 3) less expensive than Nike, Adidas, and other brands made outside the U.S., 4) are better quality, and 5) are made in the U.S..

These are my husband’s new go-to shoes. He now has 3 pairs. He has developed foot problems as well as back issues. New Balance has really made a big difference in his comfort and ease of movement.
