Upon a recommendation from my podiatrist, I have been wearing the 990 since 2008. I suffered from plantar fasciitis and my doctor recommended these to alleviate the pain. Not only did it remedy the pain but I no longer have plantar fasciitis. These are the sturdiest shoes and they offer great support. Being made in the USA is a definite plus.

This is my second set of 990's and I will likely continue to purchase these shoes. They are made a LOT better than any other shoe i've had in many years. Made in America means a lot as well. Keep it up guys!

At least my 6th pair. Fit as expected for my wide foot. Used to run, now for walking and general nice weather use.

I've been wearing the 990s for over 15 years by far the greatest sneaker ever.

I just bought a triple black pair, and these grey 990v5's. The triple black are going to be used for work, and the Grey for leisure and walking. I have a few more pair on the way. I'm swapping out my other sneakers with all New Balance USA made products. The 990's feel slightly larger than the same size Nike, which really equats to a more comfortable shoe in the same size 11. Not enough to go down a 1/2, just room to actually move the toes around a little...just more comfort. Very well built, and surprisingly light weight.....great shoes. Some Burgundy 990v5's would be great !!1...lol

First pair of New Balance, and I've heard a lot of good things about the 990v5. I purchased a size down from my overall shoe size, which a lot of people recommended. Also went with the wide option because other brands tend to fit snug in width for me, and I have very low to no arch. I can say for myself that the standard width would've worked just fine. They felt great to try on, but there was a LOT of width for me, especially in the arch area. I felt like it wouldn't of provided much support if I kept them and laced them tighter. I ended up shipping them back and reordered in a standard width. I'm a fan. Cant wait to get them in.

I am a New Balance person since the early '90s. I am impressed with the forward technology of this shoe. Being a bka, it is extremely important to find shoes to serve multiple purposes. I highly recommend and stand behind the New Balance brand. Fits great, looks good and color choices always fit my mood.

I've been wearing "990s" for many years. I'm now 85 and walk about 5 miles a day, staying in shape to compete in Senior Olympics. I've tried other shoes, but never for my "go to" brand and model.

Try to find a more comfortable, stylish shoe... we'll wait. 990v5's are exceptional in every category and the quality of the materials is absolutely worth the sticker price. The materials used should absolutely embarrass Nike and Adidas. These will LAST as long as you take care of them. I love these shoes to death and they compete for some of my favorites in my collection that I wear on a regular basis. I plan to always have a pair of 990's in the closet. I would recommend going down .5 size as the toe box is quite spacious.

My husband wears a size 15 shoe. He's worn this same shoe for years and needed a new pair. Finding size 15 shoe can be a nightmare. I went on line to order through New Balance. It arrived when you said it would. It fits perfectly and I'm grateful that I don't have to deal with returning it. The fact that you are still making this shoe is amazing. You are the BEST!!!

Been wearing this model shoe for 20+ years. I have serious back issues and this shoe makes a big difference. Great ankle and heal support.

I liked my first pair so well I bought the same shoes again. I work and play hard and am tough on shoes. These hold up very well and are pretty darn comfortable, especially at the end of the day or when I am traveling. They are well made and stand up to abuse!

I have a narrow foot so the narrow width fits very well. I use use the shoes for walking and am very pleased with the fit, quality and performance. The shoe size seems to be accurate.
