Description
The 990’s original designers were tasked with creating the single best running shoe on the market. The finished product more than lived up to its billing. When it hit shelves for the first time in 1982 the 990 sported an elegantly understated grey colorway, and a then unheard of three-figure price tag. For avid runners and ahead of the curve tastemakers alike, the 990 was a mark of quality and superior taste. There have been updates to the design since ’82, and more color options, but the 990’s aspirational status symbol aura has never changed. Simply put, the 990 is the shoe so good, that we’ve never stopped making it. The latest generation model, the 990v6 features a streamlined take on the mesh paneling and suede overlay construction, plus FuelCell and ENCAP midsole technologies. The subtle, refined modernization offers an up-to-date pinnacle experience for the 990.
New Balance MADE contains a domestic value of 70% or more. MADE makes up a limited portion of New Balance’s US sales.

5 Reasons To Try The New Balance 990v6!
- History. Introduced in 1982, while the AJ1 released in 1985. in 2022 The new Air Jordan Models are focusing on tech and performance, while the New Balance like pivoted to livestyle primarily. The Air Jordan 37s don't cross over, neither did the 36, 35,34.. you get the point.
- Cut and Sew, Made in the USA. Local is a plus, traditional materials maintains a timeless look and feel, and to the untrained eye, it may look like just a new colorway of New Balance.
- FuelCell Midsole provides nice modernized twist to the classic model.
- Wide feet versions! Note, usually I get wide, these I really need a regular not wide.
- Availability. You can buy now no hype, in the Grey colorway.

last week I had to buy a pair of shoes for work and I bought the V5 because I misread the price tag. I was tempted to return them when I got home and realised they were 200 and not 100 bucks . But after walking in them for a whole day I was shocked at how amazingly comfy they are. I started getting in to NB history and a week later I’m tempted to buy a new pair of NB to rotate my shoes, As a newby to the sneaker world, I must say, the NB 990 are the Mercedes E class of shoes. Not really sporty, understated, your dad appreciates it more than your friends… but hell it’s cruising in luxury lol

Leratos are extremely soft yet extremely supportive. Was the ultimate shoe before they took it off the site because it didn't sell alot with its $229 price tag and probably won't make a v2 of it. They did something amazing with that shoe that alot of people slept on. You can even find some brand new sizes out there for half off or more. Sadly my size 13 is nowhere.

Thanks for the review Hes! This might be my first pair of NB. From time to time Jordan brand did offer their modern interpretations of AJ1, but the market responds were lukewarm. People only care about how "OG" it is. Even if Nike put a piece of rock as cushion in the midsole of Chicago, Royal, Blacktoed, or Banned, they will still be sold out. Also why bother to innovate if AJ1s could resell for thousands with just reversing the swoosh and collabs.

Toe box is great I always go a half size down because I don’t like my sneakers looking like flippers (fyi NB sneakers can run big). Okay so comfort level is good but the material towards back of shoe feels like it’s gonna let my heel slip right out the back collar of shoe. New balance usually makes a taller collar to keep your foot snug and secure in back as you walk in the shoe. I wear lots of 990v2, 990v3 and I also own the v5. I think the design uses a long thin upper tongue to form against the top of your foot to help keep secure. With a lifestyle runner I feel like you need a shoe with a deeper fit in collar. Suede is lighter tone grey compared to previous models even though they use castle rock traditional color way. Quality of suede is is fine and thin, usually I would say suede is a bit more thick and premium. The eyelets and eyestay (holes for laces) are a bit thin to. The roll of the shoe when walking is organic and you can feel a standard thick midsole. I don’t think anyone’s feet would be hurting, overall good model but try previous versions against the v6.

I thought for a long time-..to buy them or not, as a result-... bought,-..quite excellent pedals..-in terms of comfort and appearance, but they saved a lot on suede-this is especially noticeable under the letter "N", and the upper plastic eyelets give off some cheapness. Of course, not everyone will be suitable, for those who have a lot of weight it will be difficult-because the sole is very soft, with my weight of 75 kg.-they are ideal. Well, in general-excellent crosses for a price tag of $ 170, ... I'm satisfied. Greetings from Russia🖐

My problem with these is it looks super super close to the others which for me I like and dislike honestly. But you ask how long can Jordan brand retro the 1-13 lol let’s be honest it’s forever. Other wise they would have died out by now. So I agree with you I like how they kept the integrity I respect that. I wish the materials were a bit better specially since they are asking 200!!! Bucks that’s insane of a price. Which is more comfortable the 9060 or the 990 v6? I personally love the 9060 that shoe kept the dna while completely modernizing the look. My problem with Jordan is price is ridiculous for the materials as well. And tech is ass for most models. But I will say flat out anyone anyone who thinks the 18s are trash honestly they 15 to 18s are some of my favorite models from Jordan brand for me personally I think your crazy If you think there trash.

With respect, i think Jordan will make an infinite variation of OG 1s, mid 1s, and low 1s, Not to mention the hype train they keep going on whatever they decide is the shoe of the moment, see Jordan 2s and Airships next year. New Balance has had a hell of a last few years, but who is the king? We all know, and if you're not sure, try getting a pair of A Man Maniere 4s tomorrow or Lost and Founds this weekend.

With 2002Rs I'm TTS wide foot. But all the 990 sizing options is keeping me from mistakenly ordering a size too big. And $199 is tough to jump on.

But at least it’s retail and easy to obtain GRs. $200 isn’t a little bit of money, but we’re living in times where low quality used Jordan and Nike collabs resale for well over $200.

Jordan's signature line isn't "a huge failure" just because it doesn't translate to modern day lifestyle. The goal of the brand has always been performance so you can't call it a failure since that expectation wasn't set by them in the first place.

I dont like that they are using less and less of the premium grey suede. Cutting costs and making them look cheaper while charging more. Also, all the extra silver/reflective bits looks cheap. Even the mesh looks more shiny.

It's annoyingly a tad narrow at the knuckles. I'm slightly wide but not wide enough to get a wide width.

I thought the same thing. Im a true size 10 and ended up with a 9.5 wide and it fits perfect. I never thought i would have been wide but the rep helping me knew it before i even stepped into the shoe

How would you rate the “ 993 “ comfortability ? Are they worth getting ?
@sl2608
@sl2608 Жыл бұрын
993 is the best shoe New Balance has ever made. And the most comfortable NB shoe I've ever worn. Far more comfortable and supportive than the 990 line. And the materials are superior. 993 = premium suede. 990v6, pigskin. 993 better, stronger outsole materials = more support and last longer. I've worn both the 990 and 993. 990 line keeps getting softer, cheaper looking and more cheaply made. My 993 suede still looks good a year later and the tread has no noticeable wear. My 990 shoes? The pigskin has turned dark grey and looks dirty even after cleaning. Tread and midsole support have worn down.
