This brand of shoe is spectacular - you can buy the same size and width years later and they are always a perfect fit. And, Zappos delivers them so fast - I think they're the best shoe store bar none. Thanks for a great experience.

I have had a pair of 990v6 for about a year; I had them on while working on a project and I accidentally spilled a liquid that yellow! Four spots of the liquid landed on the toe area of the left sneaker. The spots would not wash out, so I bought a new pair to wear while on vacation! The older pair have be downgraded to everyday wear!

I have a wide foot and a high instep. This 4E shoe provides the room I need without having to go to a bigger size, which shifts the arch. I also have a high arch and this shoe easily accepts an arch support insert. Highly recommend.

Great pair of shoes, ironically I only purchased them because I saw Jellyroll was wearing them, but they fit great and are very comfortable.

If you are a person who wears New Balance Classics 990V please note the sizing has changed. I've been wearing New Balance Classics 990V through three or four generations. In the past they have always run small so I had to order a half a size larger than my normal size 10. These V6 are sized differently and so now the 10.5 is too large and I needed to revert back to my normal size 10. These shoes are at least .25" longer than V5.

wore around the house. not nearly enough cushioning, especially in the footbox, compared to the Hoka Transports....After years of wearing v990's, the Transports are now my go-to shoe
I'd also recommend:
Hoka

I have bought this style over the years to wear with my ankle brace. This new model was cut more narrow than previous models. I am so disappointed.

Obviously, the design for this shoe has changed in version 6. There is much less height in the heel area which results in heel slipping versus the same shoe, version 5. I cannot wear the shoe now--it just doesn't fit the same.

Great in the beginning but after a couple of months the support was shot not worth the price.

This is my second purchase of this NB shoe made in USA from LL Bean. The feel good quality is above and beyond most shoes that are out there. Even though I did not need them yet, my decision was to buy another pair before the model is discontinued.

Bought these a year ago as a daily gym shoe. They are sturdy enough to have held up well during moderately heavy leg days as well as light to moderate cardio. There is no noticeable wear to the outside and only slight wear high in the heel cup, most likely due to my putting them on and taking them off without unlacing them. The heel cup is still straight, unlike my Vans, which are deformed to the point my heel hangs over the sole due to heavy squats. I liked them so much, I logged in to buy another pair in a different color, and I thought I would share my experience with them

I love the feel of these. I bought a New balance foam sneaker and I did not like the feel and support of that sneaker. This one feels more supportive and that it will last longer. I am very happy with the purchse.
