Started getting into more new balance this year and the 990v4 olive/Incense is my absolute fave pick up. Fact it was sitting made it even better

I love the 990 v6 and the 9060 Bricks and Wood collab.....One of my favorites.....

Thanks for the editing and getting thru the list so quickly. Great list.

All bangers on your list, so many I wish I would of hit but happy with what I was able to pick up. And actually went hard this year on NB more than any other brand this year. Lapis Lazuli is my fav pick up, and just crazy that I was able to grab a c-note to add to my collection. Great review!!!

Great List, this year i went more into NB and so lot of them i got in my collection too. The JJJJound 991 is my one and only resell pick up and definitly my no. 1. I love this silhouette!

I think the brown/tan 990v2 is my favorite from your list. My personal shoe of the year is honestly the 9060 just as a whole. So many cool colorways dropped for it this year.

I absolutely love New Balance!! The 990v Olive/incense shoe is gorgeous!!

Straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥 list SG but I most definitely have to go with the fresh good intro/outro 🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾 limitless. Blessings on another great year for 2024.

top pickups for me this year in no order are both baklava & lapis lazuli 990v6, the cream 990v6, jjjjound 991, intro JFG 990v4, bricks & wood 9060, and the DTLR Gr3yscale 990v3. New balance had an incredible year once again. Great video sean love your content. Can’t wait to get the orange/yellow ALD 1906 pair I pre ordered long ago to kick off 2024!!!

Your list is super valid. I do think the Auralee x 1906 pack should've been in the top ten NB releases this year ngl. Thanks for your amazing content this year Sean! 🔥🔥🔥

Great list Sean! KITH 993 is also my NB SOTY - just so thankful I could pick them up used at a decent price. My fave pair in my NB collection

🔥 vid I had know shot at your #1 pick. I really wanted that pair as it's such a refreshing colorway!

Love seeing your lists 🙏🙏 So many releases!!

Needed this video. I’ve been leaning more into New Balance but I struggle keeping up with drops.

Unfortunately only got one pair of NB this year. 1906R ALD’s, hit on kith and easily one of my best pickups this year. Happy to see it on the list! Sooooo comfy

Been looking forward to this video all year

Great list, Sean! I always look forward to your end of the year videos! I have to admit you got me into NB during the pandemic and I have not looked back. Got rid of a lot of Jordan/Nike. As I got older, comfort is king. I really thought the Baklava would be your number 1 since you spoke so highly of that pair in your review video haha. Teddy is killing with NB. I love that you pointed out a good pair of shoes doesn't always need hype or a collab. Finally, I did not expect those MSG Knick pair to be gorgeous looking with the clean colorblocking! Happy Holidays to you and your family!

As always great vid, great list. I was right there with you til number 1. For me Baklavas #1 and Knicks v6 #2.

Totally agreed 💯 the 993 NB kith exclusive it’s my SOTY for the year 2023 . It’s a beautiful and super clean pair 🧼🔥

I'm not a New Balance person, but I do respect them for shaking the game up. NB!

Great top pick Sean. Completely agree with you on that one. The rest of the list is debatable. Lol but solid choices sean! Keep up the good work, Sean

THE end of year sneaker review I’ve been waiting for!

Great year from you Sean. Respect.

Baklava is my #1 for 2023. Colors are crazy together. I picked up the New balance bug this year and its so refreshing. Although some NB sneakers are hyped it still flys under the radar in terms popularity wise. And you won't break the bank.

Great list! My personal favorite at the moment is the Stone Island x Tokyo Design Studio x FuelCell C_1.

You got such a good collection! I like that your list included several GR pairs like 990v4 olive and 990v6 cream, which didn't get much hype because these were non-collab pair

Thanks for a great list and all the reviews throughout the years! Top 3 for me is 990v3 Lapis Lazuli, 993 Kith Spring then the 990v2 Black/Brown!

Love the list. Only ones I didn’t see that I have on my favorites this year is the bricks and woods 9060.

Bringing back the 998... crazy cause me?? I never stopped rocking em. I own 997.5 too. What a time that was!!

990v3 YCMC is my new balance and maybe sneaker of the year I also think the sepia 🍊 V6 smashes on the Carhartt. Great list as usual though.

The best sneaker reviewer out there :D appreciate your content

Needed this video looking to cop my first pair of nb’s

Great list, for me the 990v6 grey day and the purple 990v4 are top shoes. I can't get to grips with the 2002r so I'd throw the 860v2 into the mix as well.

This is a excellent video bro awesome fantastic top 20 NB 🔥🔥

sick list and packed full of awesome pickups. but at the same time, i'm glad i didnt get any. so many shoes to begin with that i could never wear em all. merry christmas, happy holidays and happy new year!

Got both of the frank llyod wright colorways. Love them, beautiful shoes

That's an awesome list! I am pumped to see the 990v4 olive/incense make the cute too - fun fact is that seeing your review made me pull the trigger on those! I think if there was an honourable mention or a number 21 spot, it would be the green ALD 860v2! :)

Great list, I feel the Palace 991 should’ve been included somehow. I get a lot of compliments when I wear them!

Great list, NB truly had 20+ bangers this year

Wow, I’m both surprised and happy you have the Kith ‘Spring 101’ 993 as your #1 pair!! I’m still mad I didn’t enter the raffle for them, coulda given myself a chance. Resell is so high on them. Other favorites from New Balance include the C-Note 998, Stone Island 991V2, Up There 1906R, cream 990V4 and magenta/purple 990V2

That JJJJJound colab is a remake of a 990 for before the pandemic. I have the chocolate brown version of that and it is about to die! Loving the Carhartt colab. That will have to be my next Mash Up!

Great year, again, to NB

WRPD RNNRs gotta be my fave NB drop for the year, with the white 1906R protection pack in second

The Lapis Lazuli are my favorite sneaker of 2023 ❤

JFG 990V4 Intro gonna be my top pick for this year 🐼

Added the JFG and ALD 993's to my collection this year and they were amazing pickups. Really wanted the Baklavas but can't swing the resell price on em

Im a huge 1700 fan. Very comfy slept on model.

The ALD 860s and JFG 1998s are 🔥🔥 too

Great list would agree with virtually all of them.. also liked the 1906R "Diamond District" , Keep up the good work. also the 998 Olive / incense was fire....

My favorites 1906R {grey) Protection Pack and M2002RDN (green) Protection Pack

Solid list.

Excellent choices! The 990 v6 still hasn’t grown on me, though. 👟

I really like how many GR’s are on here teddy did his thing on these

Judging from the pic with all the shoes I thought the green v3 would be in there. Been hesitating for months wether to get these! Solid top 20. Don’t think I managed to cop any of them though!

I just got the storm blues👌🔥

Great list, Sean. I'd surely pick more MiUK and 1906Rs instead, but no doubt you've built a solid one

Great list Sean. I would also put a pair of GR 991v2 grey on the list.

Both Kith x Frank Lloyd Wright 998’s are so good

These are all nice but i want a 990 v6 in that jjjjound 991 grey colorway. I'll pay resell if NB releases a version like that🔥🔥

Always love your perspective - you put so much work into your content, and I always look forward to your videos. That being said… you got the ALD mesh runners wrong bro, the 860v2 is way better than the 1906! That DTLR shouldn’t have been on the list at all! That’s the great thing about sneakers though. Can’t wait to see your top 20 video overall!

I really wanted the size collab but resale is crazy

I haven’t really seen any NB I don’t like. They’re all so clean. They lack the character and creativity that SB’s have but the comfort and quality makes up for that

nice look back as always!!! btw bro, where do you get your polo shirts?

Surprised, 9060 & 610 collabs have no mention. I personally love the Bricks & Woods 9060 and the Bodega 610. Your list is strong, and I agree with most of it, except that you left out these 2 collabs I mentioned.

The joefresh NBs were my top

1906R is definitely in my top 10

Need to man up and get on the 990v6. Too many good colourways this year. Once I missed out on the Bronsons I dismissed it

I think the collabs for NB were a little underwhelming, but killed it with the GRs. Especially with the 1906.

“Luckily I’m in Canada so I was able to enter the raffle” 😂 dawg I wanted them size? 990v3 so bad lol

I was raised in a lower middle class family and the sneakers like new balance were way beyond our means. I worked hard and reached the upper middle class status financially and at the age of 40 I am perfectly fitted to buy and wear the US made NB 991s.....these shoes are awesome and very comfortable and I am glad that I can afford it now for me and my son.

Another vote for the Bricks and Wood 9060s

Great video! My only surprise was that the grey 991 V2 GR color way didn’t make it anywhere

solid list 👍

Surprised you didn’t include any of the GR 991v2! Awesome list as always

Solid list Sean and very well done! However, I’m extremely surprised that you didn’t have the 991v2 in the all-grey colour-way. Very surprised…..

I’m sure that we could have seen one of the 990v4 JFG dropping this week on your list ? 🤔 I really like the fact that even GR colorways can be that good with New Balance !

Cant go wrong with your list...Was Bodega this year? Also the Bricks and Woods was a great a shoe that I sold and have nothing but regrets.

The Upthere 1906r collab was a1. It feels like every second shoe on this list is a kith shoe

The baklava my number 1

Great list but man no NB x ALD 860V2? And even though they came out so late in the year, the JFG ‘1998’ pack was insane, and honestly top 3 for me at least

My number #1 is the stone island hands down

Spring 101 993 is also top of the year for me.

990v6 kith msg collab is the best 😊

990v6 is my shoe of the year. The Carhartt pair slaps

Wow I feel like the queen of new balance right now I have all your top 10 new balance except for Stone Mountain 991 that I didn’t try to go for. only pair I paid l resell was for the jjjound for 991 but close to retail. 💪🏾

Awesome stuff Sean. MSG Kith is the best in my opinion. 💙🧡🔥

Kith and jjjound releases haven’t missed their mark throughout the years imo.

Top Saucony pickup 2023

Agree with your top 3 But i'd put the baklava at 1 and the jjjound at 2

🗣your wild 4putting the v6 taps @#18 😂

for me the SOTY is the JJJJound 991 😎

Asics next🔥🔥

Liked the ALD green 860v2 much better than the 1906. One of my top picks for the year

I got the kith spring 101 off the kith app and sold them. I still regret it to this day. I loved them but sold them because I knew I would get them dirty but I should’ve just kept. It still hurts 💔

Nice shirt bro 😎

1. 999v6 Lapis Lazuli 2. 990v6 Carhartt Workwear 3. 990v6 Kith x MSG Knicks Due to these boxes laying on my bed right now. 4. 990v6 Grey Day 5. 990v3 YCMC Trailblazers 6. 1906D Reflection 7. 990v3 Green Gold 8. 990v2 Purple Yellow 9. 9060 Moon Daze 10. 990v3 Tan Orange I had 3 other v6 but I tried to diversity my list.

My top 10 NB pickups this year- 1. Stone Island 991v2 2. Niko and.. 530 3. Wtaps 990v6 4. Miu Miu 574 5. ALD 860v2 6. Kith 998 7. Ganni 1906R 8. ALD 1906R 9. TINT 550 10. 610 Mule Stone Island v2s are easily my shoe of the year. Favorite non 2023 pickup are probably the Patta 991s EG 990v5s, and the 99X 990v2/991 hybrids. Very strong year for NB

Let’s see your all time top 20 NB! Or, top 20 all time for all Brands!

Hi Sean! Always appreciate your opinion and thoughtful analysis of sneakers. A question though, what’s your take on the recent JFG 990v4s and where would the cw’s respectively land on the current list if you were able to grab them?

I missed the WRPD runner.
