I buy my son this pair of shoes every year. I can't get them anywhere else. Extra wide in 5 1/2 with good quality. Thank you New Balance for carrying shoes to fit real feet.

With these shoes I can last most of the day on my feet which is amazing. I haven't found any other shoes that provide that level of support and comfort. My size and color preference sells out fast so when available I order a few pairs at a time. Please keep up the great work!

I use these shoes for walking 3 miles a day. Great fit. I have worn the 990 for years. Tried others but I can't find a better shoe for me.

My 13 year old son has very wide feet an we always struggle to find shoes that fit. These shoes are a godsend! They are "cool looking" and fit perfectly. they have excellent support and are very durable! A favorite by far!

Great shoe. Worth the extra money. My son needs good arch support and this shoe has it. Even on the outside of the shoe under the arch. It’s super solid. We tried to save some money on his last pair and dropped down a notch or two cost wise (New Balance) and they didn’t have near the support this shoe has. They’re his school shoes, so the only mistake we made is buying gray instead of black! Gray suede toes shoe the dirt more than black.

I wear these shoes everyday and they go with about any outfit that I would want to wear that day. I have always had great success with New Balance shoes. They are a good quality product and I can order my size and width and they always fit me. They are very comfortable and I will never buy any other brand of shoe.

The sneaker is very stylish looking with my outfits. I love the color. Doesn't really keep your feet warm in the cold weather though.

These shoes were recommended for my son. They're super comfy & he likes the style. The only downside is the price. They're expensive for kids shoes and my son will grow out of them in no time.

These have become my favorite sneaker. I recently wore them 8+ hours walking through a busy downtown Chicago conference! I'm normally 7.5-8 in women kids 6.5 fit perfect.

It's very comfortable but runs a small size. So I returned it.

My son just received the shoes so haven't had much time to see how they are but so far they great. The only issue I had wasn't with the product but the delivery time took almost a month.

Cute style but not wide enough for my son…despite being an XW. Had to go a half size up for his feet.

I've been trying for months to find my son shoes with no luck. These finally came in stock but I'm assuming new balance changed their width since I've bought these before and I can't even get these on my sons feet. Mind you I went a whole size up to ensure they'd fit but nope I'm just so disappointed. If you need extra wide do not get these.

They are comfortable. I wear them to work. A bit pricey for a pair of youth shoes. The only problem they have is that the shoelaces are always coming undone. That is irrating. have never paid this much for a pair of shoes. The reason I went to NB is I had a gift card. My brother passed away a year ago. He had told me about before he died. So that is what I used.

My son needs wide shoes and thus we are limited to New Balance shoes, regrettably so. The quality of all the shoes we have bought have been poor and within weeks we feel like we need new shoes. We decided to spend a little extra on this shoe since he has been pursuing track & field as an after-school activity but within 3 weeks the shoes had holes and looked ragged. I wish they would last a bit longer then a month before I feel like we have to replace the shoes.
