New Balance 990v5 vs. 992 vs. 993 - Which one is better for you? 

Great content as always dude, great insight into a shoe that I've never really had in the collection👌

Love your honesty and the detailed explanations. Keep up the passion!

“To be honest, man, just get them all.” Hahaha! I heard that. Great video 💯

This video was just what I needed! You have now got me sold on the 992 being my choice. I don’t know too many people rocking NB’s or in specifically the dad shoe style, but the 992 hits it right. It’s got a hint of the Blanciaga chunky sole tapered to slim upper. The circular layering and use of lots of suede adds a lot of character. The little ‘N’ for me is much nicer than the big ‘N’. Great comparison vid. Thank you!!

Only a minute in and I already subscribed, great quality! Keep up the hard work!🙏🏽

The exact video I need right now!

For me the 992 is comfy but the cushion unit in the forefoot affects the overall comfort. It’s not uncomfortable but you can feel where it starts and ends, and it’s not as smooth a transitions a Nike zoom pod. For me this makes the 990 much more comfy overall, but the 992 looks dope. Love that purple colorway

This video was very informative & helpful. Thanks!

Great video! Cant go wrong with the 990! My go to shoe

I'd pick these over yeezy's.

Appreciate the detailed thoughts man! Just getting into NBs so this was helpful

The 993 is the best shoe I've ever worn.

awesome video mate, really good comparison I thought. Initially, I didn't think the 990v5 would look good on foot, but man was I wrong!! They look DOPE on foot and I'm so glad I gave them a chance. comfortable af and the tongue sits nice and high like oldskool sneakers so I didn't think dad shoe at all once I put them on.

Great video man, very helpfull. Just copped myself a pair 992’s maroon/purple. Im a size 10,5 and bought a size 10. SUPERHAPPY to hear you say they run big. Keep it going, great content bro. Peace✌🏽

thanks for this bro. fire ALD hat too🕺🏽

This helped so much!!!! Good looking out!!!

*just bought 993 !! Love it man ty !!*

Great review bro, keep at it.

Great video. So I've been wearing the 990v5 for two years and just picked up the 992s. Sizing wise I got 11.5 in both and they feel great. Looking to get some 993s.

The metatarsal support insoles are a nice addition to these shoes too. The ortholites that come standard feel good too.

Dude this is the exact predicament I'm in, can't decide between the 992 & 3....leanin towards the tan 992s!

i have the exact same 990v5 shoes he showed. Would recommend as they're very comfortable and easy to style :)

I've been rocking the 993 Grey moreso than my other pairs. I just find it very straightforward and isn't as mainstream or hype-driven as the 990v5 and 992. I have all three models but the 993 has won me over.

very helpful, thanks!

Nice comparison video, man! But I’ll go for the 993s because it looks much the same as the 990v3s and those are the best 990s in my opinion. Maybe you could do all the 990s comparison. And if you could also do reviews on some collabs like the 990v3 JJJJound, the 992 JJJJound/WTAPS, the ALD collabs, and the Kiths

Great video! Leaning 990 because of the ortholite insole as I have flat feet.

Thanks for this , I’m designing to get new one.

I just got me a 990 v5 and it is the most comfortable sneaker i ever wore

Great comparison video

I bought 1500s, 997, 990v4/5, and finally this week..that 992..I LOVE the 992 !

Just found your channel keep up with the Awesome job your doing I have been a fan of New Balance for many years they make the best I purchased the 990 v5 in blue a few days ago I may return them for the 993 I Appreciate you taking the time to make this video very Educational 👍

Good vid, it’s a year old and still holds up. That NB purple, amazing & you didn’t even talk about the 991s or 990v3s & 990v4s at the time. The 998s, 1500s, I could go all day. The 2002Rs! Hahaha, thanks for the NB porn!

The 990 series is an iconic silhouette in the DMV area. I’m from DC and been wearing them/new balance since I was a baby (90’s)... 991’s or the 992’s might be my favorite.. but I love the 990 v5’s

Great video ❤

I got 2 pairs of 993s in grey and black. Definitely my favorite shoes I have. I want some 992s but they are expensive

Been watchin for a while, completely forgot to subscribe. 200th subscriber here man. Keep up the quality content!

Perfect comparison video

990 v5 is so fire i haven't bought a pair yet but i will

I'm a sneakerhead with a decent collection, I recently had foot problems and have to wear orthotic insoles needless to say the insoles make most of my sneakers too tight or uncomfortable so my doctor told me I should get sneakers in a wider width, he suggested new balance or Asics. I immediately went to new balance store and copped a 990v5 4e (Xtra wide) in grey and a 993 4e in indigo color way and after rocking both on and off for about a week I returned the 993 pair and kept the 990v5 it's just a comfier and better looking sneaker imo and any collab or 992 online doesn't come in wide sizes so makes the choice easier for me lol the 990v5 is my daily driver now and honestly I'm not mad at the aesthetic and style of the shoe

Keep going!

just subbed ✊🙏

i am UK10. When i buy USA made NB, i normally go 1/2 size bigger (US11/Uk10.5) and if i buy regular NBs or UK made ones, i buy UK10 . I have 990,993 and 992 and they are all UK10.5 - Perfect!

just copped the navy blue grey 992 and i’ve been big on the 990v5 but man i was sleeping on the 992 in my opinion the most comfortable new balances i own

November 2021. I got a beautiful 993 shoes 180 bucks ,love it are the best definitely!!!

992 my personal favourite - especially in that colourway - think its a better shape - yeah definitely rating it the best - for looks solely. 993 is good too Good review. 👍

I have the grey stray rats 990 v3 and they’re not as comfortable as I’d imagined. The red kith 992 may be my next pickup.

Welp this video helped me finally decide on the 990V5, it's got an all black version which I could definitely use for work. I'll probably get a 993 later down the road to have more variety, definitely like that all grey color as well

those 992's are fire

I have the black and gray 992s🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 i love em.

Gotta keep a pair of Grey 990 v5. My son got them same blue 993

I got some 992s and they are so fucking comfortable. I personally liked the look more, they look like some Balenciagas.

Thanks for the video!! I do not know which to choose. You did say no ortho inside. I need the best support for feet after being run over. Going to get feet put on N B machine to help pick best shoe.

Have 5 pairs of 992, but I find myself grabbing the 990v5's more often. So easy to style and goes with just about everything. like you said though - grab all of them, if you can lol

Hey, what is the style code of the 992s you have. On goat and flight club, there are 2 listings that look identical. But they have different style codes, different release dates and prices are different. One says purple/gray and one says maroon/gray.

Love the NB's! Are you going to get the 2002R's that rereleased last week?

ever since I found out they have the made in USA Line, I have only bought NB now. I love wearing the 990 and 992 the most...but he 993 I like just as much just prefer the models of the others more. USA made only for me!

The quality on the Made in US/UK models is crazy

I am a US 11 in Nike AF1's, so do you have any suggestions for sizing on the 992 and 993? Btw, vid is very helpful and great!

992🔥

Good comparison

I really wish to get some help here, a couple of weeks I have bought a 990v4 on my usual size, 9.5us and they run huge, I mean half or full size bigger, I am about to get a 993's but I'd like to know the fitting, I prefer a snug fit rather than a lose one, so can anybody help me with the sizing? thanks

Are you sure about the Nduranc?. On the website the only sneaker saying it has Ndurance is the 993 and a running shoe blog claimed the 990s definitely did not have Ndurance .

Is the 990 V5 normal version wider than other brands like Nike, Adidas, etc.? I have a bit wide foot so I just wondering should I go up to the wide version.

998s, 1600 and 1700 Made in USA are my favorites

Does it make sense if you wear orthotics?

great video. Where did you get that hoodie???

You're %100 correct. if you are new to NB and want a quality sneaker, the 990v5 is definitely cheaper and sometimes can? be found on sale.

Underrate Channel

I find with nb, s that your Normal size is too big and a half size down would be a better fit usually. But quality and comfort /cushioning always good. 👍

do these fit true to size

🔥🔥🔥

I like the 992 and 993 on feet better. Think both would look great with grey laces. Good video.

Are those 993 navy or indigo ?

Prefer the cleaner 993 look over the 992. Are they equal in comfort?

I purchased the 990 v5 but were tight on the toe in size 10.5 regular should I go to 11 or 10.5 wide, or 11 wide?

very helpful

Do you feel like sizing is the same for the 990 V5’s and 992?

990v5 has Encap which is older on paper but it had been completely redesigned for the v5 which makes it a newer tech than 992 and 993 :)

The video I need! You, sir, just found a new subscriber. 🔥

My wife wants to start playing tennis and I need some running shoes. Would any of these be good? It’s a good excuse to get a pair of NB’s lol

Nice video

I have the 992 in 11.5 and I feel like I could go half a size down. I have the 990v5 in 11 and it fits PERFECT. What size should I get the 993 in?

I tried the 990v5s. 11 standard width is too narrow and 11 wide is too wide. Would 11.5 standard width be the better size for me?

Maaaan i thought i only needed one grey NB. I’m lookin at getting navy ones now. It’s poison 🤣

Do you have any opinions on the width?

Is the fit/sizing for 990 and 993 the same? I was able to try a pair of 990 in store so wondering if I can use the same size for 993s I'll buy online.

Hey, i have a US 11 in Jordan 1´s. Will a US 10 NB992 fit me?

Anyone know a good online store that sells in Europe?

Do you like this one over the latest Sea Salt/black 993 ?

Bro....Where did you find your Navy Sweatshirt?

Just saw a 1540v3, looks pretty good, it should for 175.00. Research them, 990v5 is the. Best.

What would think about 991? I’m a size 9.5 for af1 and 9.5 for yeezys. I’m deciding whether I should get a size 9 or 10

those 993s tho..👌

Bro I wanted to buy to new balance 990v5 but I can't find them in my country .

hows the sizing on 992s

Got a question, is 993 bulky?? Cuz i saw my friends 992 looks bulky

Those purple shoes POP

I'm 8.5 US on NB 574. I wanna know if 992 and 990v5 fit the same 🥺

my 993 ran half size big debating to order something truer to size 😕

How do you guys grab 992s? Legit almost every pair sells out right away
