990v6 is very comfortable for my every day ware. I've had previous pairs with the same comfort experience. They last for years and still look great.

These are the best shoes ever. They are the only ones my husband can wear. He has a very narrow foot, and its hard to find shoes that fit him. So when i found these for him, he just loves them. They fit perfect.

I've been wearing NB990's for decades due to various foot problems. Glad that LLBean has EE in Mens sizing that works well for women! Took a few tries to find the right size but with free shipping wasn't a big deal and worth the time. One problem though.....price is wayyyyyyy to expensive for a senior!

I have always had to order 1/2 size larger for New Balance sneakers. Knowing this, with the larger size, they fit perfectly. No issue with the width, I am a medium. I like that an extra set of laces was included in a different color for a slight change-up in style.

I've ordered New Balance 4E Wide for many years due to my custom orthotics. These new shoes are way more narrow and the orthotics don't fit well. I am going to have to return them. Sadly both Zappos and New Balanace have no inventory in 6E for Navy. So I will just have to wait.

The size and fit were good and they were relatively comfortable however I thought they wore a little too fast on the bottom for $200. shoes.

I wore the 990v5 for years. I don't like the 990v6 as much. It's ok, but doesn't feel as good or sturdy as the v5.

Fit and size were great. Really comfortable! Would have liked to have purchased the 990v5's which is the most comfortable sneaker for my problematic feet. The 990v6 is the next best thing. Extremely happy! Keep me posted if you have any sales on either sneaker in my size, as I'd like to buy another pair.

I have purchased 5 or 6 990 's. New Balance has taken a step back in quality. Cost cutters reduced the amount of material used to make the shoe., even eliminated the plastic lace support on the top of the shoe.

I am a woman. What I need is the late, great 990V5 in a men's size 6 with a 6E width (I have short, very wide feet). Alas, the 990V5 has been discontinued so I tried the 990V6 in a 7 4E. As I feared it is too long and not quite wide enough around the bunion. Unfortunately, I have no choice but to send them back. It's probably a great shoe (NB) usually is, but it's not for me.
