Loved the shoes but for $221 the sole wore out at 1 year after
I only wore them for light walking the best customer service would do is a 20% discount on next purchase probably will never buy again

I have had many pairs of version 3-5 and all were great. Version 6 do not feel good. Tongue is smaller.
Length does not match size. Do not feel good all. I would return if I had not thrown out the box. May have just lost me as a customer. Don’t buy. Look for version 5.

Terrible. The shape of this shoe is all wrong. It is too long and narrow and the arch is way too low. Maybe OK for someone with flat feet. But doesn't work for someone with high arches. I would return them, but I have already run in them, thinking they might break in. But they still feel terrible after 50 miles.

New v6 design feels cheap and does not fit nearly as well as v5. Too much pressure at the top of the shoe caused soreness after wearing them for a short while. That never happened with the older design.

I bought a pair in june of 22 and they are fine except the foam started falling apart after a year. $200 sneakers, rarely worn, made in USA should last an old man like me forever. I am very disappointed in the poor quality.

The sizing of these shoes makes no sense whatsoever. The number on the box has nothing to do with the actual size of the shoe. I have worn an 11 1/2 MED shoe for the last thirty years. I started with an 11 1/2 MED, went down to an 11, and then tried a 10 1/2. The 10 1/2 was too small--just barely--and the others were absurdly large. I give up. Also, cheep laces and no arch support.

This shoe should not belong to the 990 line, there is no arch support and they have reduced the cushion in the front of the shoe. I have worn 990's for many years and purchase them at least two times a year. This shoe is not an upgrade over the previous 990, instead it's a downgrade. I will be purchasing the 990v4 instead.

I've been wearing the USA Made 900 series in size 10.5 for almost 3 decades. This model is the worst. Shoes were 1/2 size larger and more narrow than my 993. Also, the materials used do not feel as lux as previous models (outer sole, laces). The construction of the heel and upper doesn't feel as solid as previous models.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks, Asics, Hoka, Saucony, Mizuno
