The 992 and the 991v2 are my favorite Made model’s. If I had to choose between the two… I’d go with the 991v2 just due to the silhouette and overall comfort
Agree… Agree… Agree… 991v2 had me going crazy starting with the turbulence colorway and then many others but the pelican ended the year nicely. Pockets did hurt a little but well worth it with this NB silhouette becoming my favorite and go to apartment from 990v6.
Definitely the coolest New Balance shoe, I have 2 pair. However, I think most people would find the 990v6 more comfortable. Especially if you prefer more wiggle room in the toe box.
Hey Hes, I love these too, but never got a chance to try them on. How would you say they fit compared to other NB models? I like the way the 990v6 fits if that helps
In Malaysia, the 991v2 winter flare cost RM 1,139. About 250 USD. I'm usually a US 13 but they only have US 12, hmmm wondering if worth buying to try it out. I love the NB designs and have a few 990v4,v5 and v6 as well as the xc-72, 9060, 550 and 1080v series
I got the Stone Island And two of the Ghost Pack The triple black and green The tightness on the top of the foot makes them less comfortable. Surprised Hes with his wide foot didn’t find this a problem…
Had a few of these but have had nothing but quality issues with them, cracks in the sole, toe and sole tip separation and toe cap deformation….. and the NB customer service is bloody terrible….!

Agree 💯
I had to double down on those 991v2 Winter Flares. That's my new favorite colorway
I just got the 991v2 turbulence for retail. Cant wait for them to arrive
Silver Blue / Turbulence is the best colourway imo
We are very familiar with that wife/ gf "excitment" after seeing that the gift is a pair of sneakers 😂
Great video and I couldn't agree more. I picked up a 991v2 pair for Christmas! My favorite, hands down
992 is still my favorite... Nice video and happy new year.
They knocked it out of the park with these. I have most of the colorways and plan to add more to the collection
Love the 991V2, the city Exclusive Pack Pink Tokyo is fire 🔥
991v2 are far and away the best New Balance model.
The Turbulence, Rosewood, and Winter Flare are 🔥
Naaaa. Def not the most comfortable or aesthetically pleasing.
This pair reminds me of the Yeezy 700 magnet. Always liked that colorway of the 700, super underated.
991v2s killed it this year. Really looking forward to more collabs/GRs in 2025 along with the return of 992!
Those over 200 is crazy

How’s sizing? Do the toes
Push against the toebox?
Would try them but they're known for being very narrow at the toebox
Currently have an offer in on a pair of Stone Island 991v2's. Hope I can cop them after watching this video!
My New Year's resolution is to pick up a pair of 991v2s, I've been resisting for so long but I can't hold off any longer lol

I love winter flares but had to pass as I'd already bought 10 pairs of new balance in 2024 and got my favourite 991V2 : turbulence blue
I usually wear a size 12 1/2 and this shoe is not available in that size. Would you recommend going up or down a size in this shoe?
Size up to a 13 is the best option.
Size up
Gotta go up. Their UK shoes tend to be narrow.

NB 992👟💪
How's the wide foot fit? I sized up a full size in 991v1 and it still didn't fit
Didn’t like the 991 due to the heel to toe drop, thought it was too aggressive. Does v2 correct it?
Bro do the orange 990v4 ALD collab …they are on sale
I got the Stone Island
And two of the Ghost Pack
The triple black and green
The tightness on the top of the foot makes them less comfortable. Surprised Hes with his wide foot didn’t find this a problem…
Missed out too. But for a size 13, paying 100+ over retail on stockx... Idk. Gonna wait a bit.

I find the 990v6 a little more comfortable, the 991v2 has more of a drop that makes them not as comfortable
990’s all day >>>>
Love your reaction to the wifes under-reaction
992
nices video
I love the vintage sport colorway.
Worst model for wide footers, sadly unwearable. At TTS it destroys my pinky toe, half up it's too long and I get heel slip. The model is dead for me.
Had the 990 and they still hurt my feet
$250! Easy, now!
I really like the Silver/Blue/Turbulance ones. Too bad resell is where it is or I'd double. $250 retail is crazy.
Not for $250 ( 991 V2)
Thats To Expensive for me
first!
If only NB makes 990 or 991 without the pig skin leather....I would buy them. I only have the 990 V5 Vegan and the cushion sucked.
Grey is your favorite color? wtf? lmao
