In the spring of 1978, New Balance gave their designers the go-ahead on an ambitious undertaking: develop the very best running shoe, regardless of the time it takes or the money it costs. The result was the 990, a shoe that’s been raising the bar on quality ever since. With the 990v6, the legend continues. A perfect blend of cushioning and style, this shoe looks as good on your morning run as it does on the runway. New Balance MADE contains a domestic value of 70% or more. MADE makes up a limited portion of New Balance’s US sales.

I love New Balance 990 shoes and have bought them for years. For some reason, this year's women's 990v6 has shoe laces that are too small to tie. I went to my local New Balance shoe store, they said that everyone was unhappy with this and that I should call NB customer service. After half an hour on hold, New Balance Customer Service told me that they do not solve shoelace problems, and that the problem is all mine. The shoes come with too-small laces in 2 different colors (how special is that!). It is costing me an additional $15 to order replacement shoelaces on Amazon, while taking my best guess at the right size to order. I asked NB Customer Service to at least document the fact that their product has a problem, and the agent seemed overwhelmed at the effort that this would require. With a $199 price tag, something here should really be handled a lot better. Any chance that someone up there will read this?Footnote: I bought the extra shoe laces, and now I really hate these shoes. There is a huge amount of shoelace showing (is this supposed to be decorative?), and I prefer a shoe which is less shoelace, and more shoe material. New Balance seems to have considered this, by providing 2 pairs of shoe laces - one white and one navy. Theoretically, the navy laces would be less visible. Unfortunately, the shoe has a white piping around the lacing area, so the navy laces just look dumb. Use the white laces, which will never stay white, and they cover 1/3 of the shoe's front.
Not as comfortable as I thought they would be I had to use stretcher by the toe After adding inserts helped a little
I like the shoe very much. I would like more colors to choose from.
- I received these nice running sneakers in condition on 8/1/23 from mostly dependable Amazon.com shipper.All of its materials feel light.- The NB sneakers insoles are thin. Thus I bought thicker better insoles and they feel comfortable when I walk or lightly jog in it. The sizeWomen 7-1/2 feels roomy enough to fit my insoles and/or thick socks in it.- The bottom outer rubber soles (mixed white/grey) are thick and supportive enough for bottom of feet.- The 2 shoe laces colors that came with it are grey and black; I used the grey laces.- Overall I like these NB W990v6, mostly top part is black; bottom rubber sole part is grey/white running sneakers- I like the Prime member Amazon.com feature, try before you buy.- Thank you New Balance company, and Amazon.Com seller, shipper staffs👍😊
I walk 2 miles daily. I thought I'd give the New Balance 990 a try, but no go. These were far longer and far wider than my usual 10 D in any other brand of walking shoes I've tried. I checked the box label because it seemed like they had sent the men's size, but it said women's 10 D. In addition, this shoe has no eyelet to keep the tongue in place. I'm returning them and going back to my favorite: Brooks Addiction 2 walkers.
Please don’t stop this series of shoes they have the best support that helps walk and back pain to stop
I used to love this shoe and how my foot felt cradled and supported. The ankle area is cut lower so it feels like you’re not sitting securely, down into the shoe. The ankle is too big and rubs against my heel it feels like I’m stepping out of it with each step. . I tried a half size smaller, too tight, tried narrow, also too tight… but my regular size is too long and pointed. Seems like the end of an era for this sneaker.
