Premium Comfort and Support Worth Every Penny
These New Balance 990 V5s are incredibly comfortable right out of the box. Excellent cushioning, solid support, and top-tier build quality make them perfect for long walks or all-day wear. They feel durable, stable, and breathable, and the fit is spot-on. Definitely a premium shoe that lives up to the hype. ... show more

Comfortable, sturdy, nice looking shoe
I bought the 990V5 (V5) to replace my 990V4 (V4). I really liked the V4, but I love the V5! The V5 is my new favorite work out shoe, and I currently use a few different brands. I use my V5's for walking outdoors, treadmill walking and running, and for using an elliptical. I do not use the V5's for running outdoors on hard streets or sidewalks. When I walk indoors or out, it's usually 4 to 5 miles. I spend 45 minutes to an hour on the elliptical. I am not that knowledgeable about the technical aspects of shoes, but I know what feels good to me. Also, I haven't worn these to work or any events that require a lot of standing, so i can't comment how these feel for standing on your feet for great lengths of time. The V5's fit very comfortably for me; they are snug, but not too snug as to be tight. Good room in the toe box and heel, but they don't slip around on my feet. The soles are also very comfortable - great, thick feeling cushion that feel solid while nicely absorbing the impact of my feet. The uppers are solid and strong, but still offer good flexibility. For walking outdoors or on a treadmill, the V5's are comfortable and deliver a confidence inspiring performance. The V5's feel a little heavier than my other brands of running shoes. But, the V5's feel more solid and stable, so I don't mind if they do weigh more. For elliptical use, the V5's feel pretty good for about 30 minutes, then one of my feet go numb. This is common for me with any shoe that I wear on the elliptical. Other elliptical users I know have the same problem. So, I don't blame my foot numbness on the shoe. I bought the black V5's and they're a pretty sharp looking shoe. I feel very good about buying the 990V5's! ... show more

Best NB!
Best New Balance shoes I’ve bought. Long lasting and comfortable. I’ve had this ones for a few years and they’re my go to shoes for traveling. Great quality! Would buy them again when replacing this ones.

Excellent Walking Shoes, Costly but They Fit
So far the only ones I found that fit well after several foot surgeries. After many others first, I tired on the v4 of this model at the PX and they were almost the right size but could have stood being a size wider; sad because they were a screaming deal. I look on here and that version was getting horrible ratings though, so I bought 1700v1's and those actually were horrible, sent 'em right back. So I looked up more walking shoes and between the time it took to order and return the 1700's, Amazon was listing these new v5's and the handful of reviews were promising, saying they were better than the v4's. That's hard for me to to tell, but it does seem these are made a little better --and they damn well ought to be given the price-- because these cost as much as the top of the line running shoes they made 20 years ago when I was a runner, shoes I couldn't afford then. But with all the surgeries I've had and problems I've had finding shoes that not only fit but are comfortable, I gotta say I scored with these. There's room for my thick custom insoles and still enough room for my feet to lace up comfortably. So far I like 'em and can't complain and they even look nice. Certainly way better than those 1700's for sure. ... show more

I need all black version of the 990 series
I have always liked the 990 series, but recently, they have stopped making them in "all black" for some reason. These are great shoes, but expensive. The fact they are made in the USA is "one" of the primary reasons for purchasing them. This had a major impact on my purchase, but not the only reason. They are very comfortable. I do a lot of walking (15K steps a day) in my line of work, so I need a shoe I can depend on, and these fit the bill perfectly. My only gripe, that needs to seriously be addressed by New Balance, is the fact they have stopped making them in all black. Again, in my line of work, It is required that we wear black shoes (it looks more professional with our uniforms), and any reflective silver or grey insignias look out of place. Recently, I had not choice but to purchase the black/silver combination of the 990 V5, as the all black version is not currently being sold. I really like the 990 series (on my 4th purchase), but If I cannot purchase the all black series on my next time around (approx next year), i will, sadly, have to look elsewhere, which probably means a shoes made in China. Highly recommended!! New Balance, Please reintroduce the "All black" 990 ... show more

Great New Balance Quality and Comfort in new version
This is for the NB 990 V5 and like the V4 is a high quality and comfortable running shoe. I use it for daily 3 mile power walks with some jogging, and really like. Very good side support and decent cushioning. It doesn't seem to me to have quite as much structural cushioning support as the V4 in the ball of foot even though I replaced the "improved" cushion insert with a gel cushion. Actually it is so similar to the V4, I really couldn't tell much difference at all. But for me, I need good side/lateral support as I have a semi weak ankle, and these NB 990 series are the best support I could find and I've been using them for years now. And another plus, although for me not critical, is they are a very stylish shoe and could easily be worn as casual shoes for day to day activities when out and about. Another New Balance hit!!! ... show more

Great all purpose shoe
Over many years (I'm 73), I have tried a wide variety of brands and types of running and exercise shoes. I have found that running shoes work best for me for all types of activities. I keep coming back to New Balance because of the fit and comfort. I have wide feet, and New Balance widths fit better than any other brand I have tried. The support is as good or better than most, and overall comfort is the best of all the brands I have tried; which is Pretty much every brand that is out there. I used to run 4 to 6 miles a day, but now confine my workouts to ellipticals, rowing machines, etc. I am also on the large size, over 200 pounds, so I need a lot of cushion and support. The shoes work great regardless of the activity. When I replace them with a new pair, the old pair becomes my everyday wear. ... show more

Great Walking Shoes
I walk at least 5 miles a day every day at a brisk pace (about 4 MPH/15 minute miles). I've put about 40 miles on these so far and they've been great - lightweight and comfortable. They're the 3rd pair of walking/hiking shoes I've tried for replacing some old Columbia hiking shoes and the only ones that I've kept. The other 2 pairs were Keen and Merrell. Not knocking those brands. I've owned both in the past and they've been fine. Maybe my feet have changed as I've gotten older. Not sure these would be the best shoes for runners, but for walking, I don't think I'll find anything better. ... show more
