My favorite color way out of the two! I had no chance on new balance so I went ahead and paid resell for these…can’t wait to get them in hand! Dope review bro🔥
@@inTha803I had to pay resale as well. In my size 12 I paid $447. Most I ever paid on a pair of shoes. I know NO shoe is worth that price but if you really want something and you're gonna save up for it and buy it then why not. They definitely wont be sitting in my closet either. They will be worn.
@@chasen432 salute and i know the pain. most i’ve spent on a pair so far is $503 for Air Jordan 1 Lost & Found after taxes, fees and shipping from Stock X. i’ll be biting the bullet and paying resale for the original Action Bronson BAKLAVA 990v6 colorway by the end of the year. it’s current ask price on Stock X in a Size 13 is $531 before all the fees. i’m super sad to have to pay that but i feel like i need them. Action Bronson has been one of my favorite people period for like a decade now so it’s basically mandatory.
Bruh I had the exact thought regarding the similarities with the Union 4's. I unfortunately dont have those, but they're in my top 3 jordan 4's ever. I paid resell for the Lapis Lazuli's, still waiting for them to get delivered. It's easily my favorite NB pair of this year so far.
Yeah the yellow midsole seemed to get more yellow over time and wears and I tried to clean them but I didn’t make a difference that’s my only issue other than that it’s a masterpiece
Greetings from LA! I am happy for copping these yesterday a couple hours after the initial release. My size was sitting ,surprisingly , so I definitely copped.
Man im gonna start stroking mine with some new laces. Btw the box has some special features, a reflective/blue inside on the top with a QR code to his site, and it has baklava branding on the side
I'm only interested if I can get them for well under 200 EUR, but if I find a nice pair at a good price, I'm probably getting them. These definitely look similar to those Union 4s.
I took the L on all my raffles, actions website and retail/boutique stores. I did hit on the blue shorts from his website which is a small win since I did want them. ✌️
I have 990v6 in black and they fit a little big, thinking of going for a 7.5 but I don’t want it to be too small for me. On air forces I wear 7.5 but any other shoes it’s a 8!…. Idk what to do yet lol.
I kinda like it but don’t love it I want it but don’t need it. Still got the JFG993 blue. No lie they look good on wet yet I am getting tired of yellowed soles. I like all the other colours but the soles put me off. now and this is good though isn’t as great as 992 JFG No Emotions are Motions. Imo it’s hyped but kinda overhyped. Well done 👏 scoring retail. I gave up tryna with new balance raffles. It’s a loooong thing. Not paying resale it’
I remember back when Action Bronson was swearing that Ultra Boosts were the best thing since sliced bread. Now he's Mr. NB? Anyway, this colorway is okay, but the fit on the V6 is atrocious. So long and narrow, made for people with Wembanyama feet. And if you go with the wide fit, the silhouette looks bulky and awful.
Looks like a lot of salty people in the comments mad that they didn't get a pair so they want to talk negative about them... These joints are tough and I was able to grab them as well..
@@cd33832 I think you should have waited prices to dip a bit when people got them in hand but I'm not mad because I planned on going the resell route myself if I had to.
Shoes are decent, but maaaad overrated with fake hype. It's just a blue 990v6 at the end of the day. NB artificially low stock is a joke and the only reason for the crazy resale. I'd respect them more if they made a decent amount of stock for those that wanted them.
I absolutely luv how much your informed about the whole thing, shows how much you enjoy your job (: great video
Thanks for watching 🙏

Good pickup, enjoy the shoes
Look so good, can't wait. Was able to cop via the NB site. Have grey too, thought 1/2 down was perfect in those but I'm narrow footed.
Got the first pair off Action Bronson’s website. I’m happy to have at least 1 of the 2 colorways.
I've been waiting for your review. I'm trying to get back my NB roots. Great video.

Thats crazy that your size was sitting because in EU these sold out instantly
@@JoshDominic lucky I guess, just hope my order doesn’t get cancelled

Yea I noticed the blue inside but I didn'T think it was all that special, was expecting a better box
Definitely sneaker of the year contenders. I’ll pick it up on the resale but will wait till pairs come in so the price drops a bit
yes good idea, lot of the pairs from the first drop haven't shipped yet
I'm only interested if I can get them for well under 200 EUR, but if I find a nice pair at a good price, I'm probably getting them.
These definitely look similar to those Union 4s.
🔥🔥🔥 was able to cop one of these - delicious baklavas, pun intended! One of my top 5 kicks of the year!!!
Great review JD!!!
Thanks, enjoy the shoes
I so need this pair!! Great video brother
Hey Josh! Great video as always. Your channel is also New Balance quality. Just a matter of time till you take off too❤
how about sizing, is it TTS or a little bit wilder on toe box? thanks
Nice cop! If you didn’t get it for retail would you have paid resale ?
I bought today 12.18.24 for $150 at StockX
Not for me as i prefer a cleaner look.. glad some peeps like both CWs. But are way to random for my liking. Congrats on the walk in buy though.
They are fire . Bought them this morning on stockx
I managed to cop on the official site, but they have yet to ship still 😥
I've been fortunate enough to cop Baklava and Lapis Lazuli. Can't wait to get them in. Still waiting...
Also, great review!
damn i didnt realize theyre so yellow! Im kinda glad I didnt hit on these! I thought they were more like a yellowed sole like the marblehead 990v3!
Way more yellow in hand than I expected
I won both on his site, I NEED the 1906’s that he previewed though!!!
Need to see more fits in these. I know you can wear anything but I feel you would kill them. Great review!
Finally mines will arrive tomorrow 🎉
Mine still haven’t even shipped from AB website
I hit on the action Bronson website drop but they haven’t shipped yet :( alittle worried
don't be. A lot of people saying they haven't gotten their pairs
Same here ! No shipping email yet.
Absolutely love these. Really wish I had gotten a W
Great review man.. and those people who say half down on v3 and v4 are psychopaths
Man I feel the same I don’t know how they do it
damn that comparison with the jordan union 4
You scored for retail? Daaaamn. I need your luck. They were 30,000yen here, and reselling for 60k+ in my size. I could've justified the 30k.
I waited outside NB store for a few hours to cop them
Definitely one for the collectors
Got lucky. Mine’s arriving on Monday 😍
Where are yours coming from? His website?
@@84alexism SVD. Store based in Spain.
Got the 1st pair but absolutely had nice chance on the NB site or bronsons so resale her income😐. Love the vids bro
Thanks Drew
Action gave someone a pair of friends and family and the person sold them. Jordan got pissed! Action never messed with Jordan after that… Good review!
Jordan? I know that happened with his ultraboost but not Jordan…
Yeeeee JD man crazy shoe missed out
I need both pairs bro
I took the L on all my raffles, actions website and retail/boutique stores. I did hit on the blue shorts from his website which is a small win since I did want them. ✌️
I missed the drop, I logged into the site and already had 30k in line
Always keep refreshing they cancel bot orders that’s how I got mine
@@ryanmart4525 damn I didn’t know… I’m sad lol
I have 990v6 in black and they fit a little big, thinking of going for a 7.5 but I don’t want it to be too small for me. On air forces I wear 7.5 but any other shoes it’s a 8!…. Idk what to do yet lol.
Sorry AB but adding laces to these. The Timberland laces aren't it. Going with some grey laces.
These are nuts, NB of the year imo
My favourite for sure
I didn’t think the soles were gunna be an aged sail. I knew they were yellow
Aggravated because he is taking so long send them from his site. Took along for the first colorway too
These are okay but the laces just made me pass on these, got those 9060 driftwoods though.
Agreed that laces could’ve been better
Wish I could have copped these!
Amazing!
Somehow managed to hit on new balance an hour after initial drop. Luckily my order hasn’t canceled like so many others , it’s preparing to ship now❤
Wow congrats bro
I HATE EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING THAT WAS ABLE TO GET A PAIR CUH 😂
Everyone saying the baklavas are not wearable. Bro I throw them on with anything and somehow they go. It’s crazy. Baklava is just a better shoe.
Dese go hard, fr!!
They OK but would never pay the absurd resell price (and retail) they go for. Not worth it at all. Just my opinion...
I kinda like it but don’t love it I want it but don’t need it. Still got the JFG993 blue. No lie they look good on wet yet I am getting tired of yellowed soles.

Definitely gotta size down on these.
Bro is tripping about the "Standard 990v6" box. They have Baklava on the sides and has a blue mirror look on the inside of the lid.
The blue mirror thing is nothing special tbh, didn’t even feel it was worth mentioning here
Looks like a lot of salty people in the comments mad that they didn't get a pair so they want to talk negative about them... These joints are tough and I was able to grab them as well..
Facts! I took a L on the release but I went ahead and paid resell…I couldn’t pass these up 🔥
@@cd33832 I think you should have waited prices to dip a bit when people got them in hand but I'm not mad because I planned on going the resell route myself if I had to.
Ima still get them, ima pay the resell… fuck it

This L hurt a lot, this is sneaker of the year contender
easily a contender
The resell on these are ridiculous!! 🤦🏾♂️
I think it will come down a bit after all those pairs get shipped out from the first drop
Def not better than the first, it’s too safe and i have V5 with similar colors but u know there’s no famous name attached to it.
Guess you have to be an Action Bronson fan. I wouldn't wear those if someone gifted them. 😳
Forrreal? 😢
I'd resell them if I had them LOL
Bull shitt
Zero drip
These are so good man
Müll!
Overrateddddd. I cant get behind this. What even is action brunson.
Bronson* , He’s a lot of things but most of all he loves New Balance
I listed to your video and bought these as soon as possible then the prices dropped, I could’ve saved almost $100🤦🤦🤦 plus I got a B grade from GOAT
How did you know theyre B grade?
@@oBlvdwhat's it mean to be B grade? Reps?
@@NYC_Goody manufacturing flaws
nah pass
That yellow midsole is keeping me from paying resell 🫣
Same here
