Please make this a series, I’m sure a lot of people are ok with spending a lot on a new pair of shoes so this really helps us. Looking forward to see more vids of other brands too.
997S and 574 are the best intro's and then once your feet are in the water you can step up to the 99X line. Much much better quality than Nike/Adidas and they're much more comfortable on foot. The higher end stuff is also usually endorsed by doctors.
Same, just got my 1st Made in USA NB in May, 998NF. Once the seal was broken... Wow. It is now December & I think I'm at around 8 pairs total. OG 990 (990v1) is my personal fave, but the 998 is such a wearable shoe. 8 have the 997S but want some MIUSA 997s. I like the look of the 996 the best, but my shoe ppl on YT say it's not as comfy as other 99X models. 🤷🏼 Only one way to find out...
Awesome video thank you for it. Have you ever considered doing a video on Diadora? I just picked up my first pair and these are amazing. The materials and comfort are on point.
Those 997H are pretty good looking but was disappointed with material quality, the original 997 are way better and the 997S is probably one of the best NB sneakers ever. I'm dying to get my hands on one at a decent price, same with the 990 V5's and yes the 550's are fire as well has that retro 90's vibe to them.
I am like you HES in that I'm also a US9.5. When I tried on the 57/40 instore I was blown away with how roomy that model fits. I tried on the US9 on display and there was still a fair bit of room at the toe box. May have to size down a whole size to US8.5.
I find the 997H to be a little narrow, but after wearing them they fit great and they are true to size. In the 327 i usually go 0.5 size up, they are really narrow. Tbh I have wide feet :)) Hope this helps some people! Anyway, keep up with the great work!!! Great video with budget sneakers
If you're not from the DMV area, people in other states sleep on New Balance. Out here in California the younger generation clown people for wearing New Balance at school but will turn around and give props for wearing ugly Yeezys.
Haha 🤣 that intro was epic. Still saving up for some fresh foam more or rebelv2 might really be worth it it's gonna be your most comfy shoe you ever had and they looks sick
4:33 NB suede *rivals* Jordan brand? Man, NB materials blow Jordan completely out of the water. It is not even close. I guess Hes did specify the entry level, but... NB quality & materials have to be felt to be truly appreciated. I got the OG 990v1 and am awestruck by the softness & premium feel of the suede. I get them out just to hold them, it's nuts. Like they blow other MIUSA NBs away. To the uninitiated: get some NB 99Xs
I got those exact 680s. Same color and all. And I love them. I’m fact they are the second generation 680s I’ve owned. Great value, great comfort, great style, they really do look super cool of feet. They are just an overall winner.
Today I bought the Fresh Foam 680 v8. Very comfortable and the midsole is pretty squishy, I would probably say that it is more on the lines of a max cushion.
Im new to the new balance hive. Honestly for the longest time i felt like they were not my vibe til i got my 327. Now i wanna get in. 997s may be next for me. I wish some of the 990s and 992 were so expensive
I’d be interested to see you review some skate shoes like numeric 306 foy and 1010 Tiago, as a more of a sneaker head than a skater I think you could have a unique viewpoint
Great video!! Fan of New Balance I have been waiting for my New Balance B DAY 990 V5 since July as gift. BUMMED person didn't order for me!! Highly recommended by Nerve Dr., Orthopedic Dr, Orthopedic Surgeon 990V5 best support shoe for feet!! Since being run over hit & run at work my feet need great support!! New Balance needs to have better color choices for women's 990V5!!
Man, after that vid you did on those 997H's, i bought those and five other pairs plus a burgundy pair of 57/40 for my Birthday..........ShoeTube is the devil bro😅
These shoes are too light for longer runs no stability and no protection for road runners . I like the older designs. They gave you a better ride on those long runs. It all seems about fashion now days.
I have 2 pairs of each. The 997s needed some breaking in but they have so much support and look so good and the roavs are the most comfortable shoe I've ever had.
I have the 574, XC72, 57/40, 997H (in the same color)and the 327 all under $100 without getting on sale. They are all AWESOME, especially the XC72. You can also get the Rebel and Propel and various other models under $100 if you wait for sales and get deals. I even have a few 992 Made In America I got on sale under $100. NB is just doing it right and IMO the best brand going right now for the price/quality/comfort dynamic
Please make this a series, I’m sure a lot of people are ok with spending a lot on a new pair of shoes so this really helps us. Looking forward to see more vids of other brands too.
I'm working on the top 10 slides video soon it should be pretty good got some really great options!
Agreed
Couldn’t put it better. Very nice / thoughtful video !!
I will throw down for the right kicks, but I agree 💯 Great list, love NBs
I'm so late to New Balance, but they are such a dope and comfortable shoe. I've been rocking the 997h so much this year.

Liked the Shando , 327 and 997 coloway
New intro! 🔥💪🏽
907H - the "H" stands for Heritage I believe. They are an entry-level 99X as opposed to the Made in USA 99Xs that start closer to 200 USD
Awesome video thank you for it. Have you ever considered doing a video on Diadora? I just picked up my first pair and these are amazing. The materials and comfort are on point.
I love the 327. Thanks for another great video and list.
i wear a 9 4 eeee 609 where can they be found
Those 997H are pretty good looking but was disappointed with material quality, the original 997 are way better and the 997S is probably one of the best NB sneakers ever.

Shout-out to you Hes! You and Steve Saw This are the only one doing videos like this ATM. Budget category shoes get no much love or mention
412v3 all terrain💯
does this guys kids work in the NB factories?
Shoe #2 is under 100.00 ? Id like to get my feet on some
That 997 has gbk vibes
Try new balance 847 v4
550s everywhere sold out
First comment?
Yes!!!

I don’t like the fake cloth N
NB 237 for your wide feet.
WHAT NO 24/7
The 327 is a such a nice new design and actually very comfy. Seen these things on sale at FTL sometimes for only $40-50

Gotta get a pair of those 57/40's

Finally something that isn’t a nike Jordan/dunk
That miami colorway one is dope af but don't like the come up on the toe though.
Same. Kinda ugly. I'm a NB Fan from 97.
I saw that orange and green and was on the page to pick them up then that little hit on the toe swayed me away.
Haha 🤣 that intro was epic. Still saving up for some fresh foam more or rebelv2 might really be worth it it's gonna be your most comfy shoe you ever had and they looks sick
Did not expect that much squish on the 57 40

When you relize that everyone with Hes shoe size around his neighborhood has fresh new kicks. But just slightly wider....
I honestly prefer wearing my fresh foam 680 to work being on my feet all day over my Ultraboost.
Today I bought the Fresh Foam 680 v8. Very comfortable and the midsole is pretty squishy, I would probably say that it is more on the lines of a max cushion.
Walking shoe for Europe… 680v7 or 574? Need help leaving to Europe In 2 and half weeks!
NB 410 trail runners all the way. They seem very well made for the price, has goid traction and ride.
Hey Hes! You've probably found out already, but the "H" in 997H stands for "hike." The 997S means "sport" and is just a slightly different model.
What makes them "hike" though?
@@RichardLasquite I believe the materials on the upper are more durable (only on certain colorways though) and the tread on the hiking pair is thicker
i think it means heritage
@@jcblay4882 could be. Im just going off what the employee told me at the NB outlet lol
@@carter2445 no way! 🤣🤣
my personal favorite new balances under 100 bucks are 997 Sport and BB480 lows- similar vibe to 550s but a little more uncommon
not sure if 997S are always under 100 but I got my pair on sale for like 70
could you tell were the shoes are made I like the USA made because I' 'am hard on shoes feet hurt all the time
Could have had 480s didn't cap for 40
Im new to the new balance hive. Honestly for the longest time i felt like they were not my vibe til i got my 327. Now i wanna get in. 997s may be next for me. I wish some of the 990s and 992 were so expensive
You won't be disappointed in the 997H's.
somehow this is so satisfying 0:06
997H CAN CONFIRM FAM, SO FIRE, the shape is BEAUTIFUL, one of my favorite pairs i ever got!
I’d be interested to see you review some skate shoes like numeric 306 foy and 1010 Tiago, as a more of a sneaker head than a skater I think you could have a unique viewpoint
All sneaker is 🔥 woW

Man, after that vid you did on those 997H's, i bought those and five other pairs plus a burgundy pair of 57/40 for my Birthday..........ShoeTube is the devil bro😅
Spoiler alert!!! First shoe, over $100😂🤣😂
Man, those 550s look like what every old guy at Walmart always wears 😂
Some great offerings for under $100 bucks though, thanks for the ideas 👍
I grabbed the shando for 60 with 25% off during Black Friday. Thanks He’s!
I love my 997H's. Honorable mention should go to the 996's as well when they drop new colorways.
These shoes are too light for longer runs no
stability and no protection for road
runners .
I like the older designs.
They gave you a better ride on those long runs.
It all seems about fashion now days.
You gotta try the fresh foam tempos, very comfy and best upper of any shoe I've ever worn
I'm a NB fan for their comfort but not all the design they have.
5 pairs of NB so far.
Hi sir, may i ask what is the violet shoe on the top shelve at your right, it has a sole like yeezy 500 (adiprene sole). Thank you
I really like the overall aesthetics of the NBs.
Yeah I really like the new balance it’s a good and comfortable shoe really
I picked a couple pairs of 515s classics for $60 a pop did not regret the purchase one bit
NB collabs on the 574 and 327 are beautiful check em out on video
I missed those days when new balance used to do the two for $89 sneaker special
Got a 997h and 5740 for 30usd here in nz. Lovin new balance again.
You know I wait for your videos everyday..
like for real.
I wear wide 12's and found that 13 fits me much better in the 574.
The only pair I would even consider would be No. 10.
997 S are awesome
I have 574, 2002R, 997S & 997H and I love all of them.
I'm loving the Revel 4...did you even check these out?
Got my New Balance X-Racer on sale and love them a lot
are the 997 as comfortable as the 574 ?
Idgi New Balance are expensive asf in the UK
#4 looks awesome. Havnt seen it in person yet.
Shipping delays = LGB 👍🏽
True sneaker heads don't need to go over 100
Those are dope the number 1
Ngl New Balance makes some pretty dope sneakers. Thanks for letting us know about these deals Hes... I might cop a pair of 327s and 57/40s
574's in grey are a must have.
ho brah, hes calm down man. dont gotta throw shoes everywhere.
😂😂😂
the 997S and the fresh foam Roav V1 are my 2 favorite new balance right now you can get both for around 100$
I have 2 pairs of each. The 997s needed some breaking in but they have so much support and look so good and the roavs are the most comfortable shoe I've ever had.
547
I have the 574, XC72, 57/40, 997H (in the same color)and the 327 all under $100 without getting on sale. They are all AWESOME, especially the XC72. You can also get the Rebel and Propel and various other models under $100 if you wait for sales and get deals. I even have a few 992 Made In America I got on sale under $100. NB is just doing it right and IMO the best brand going right now for the price/quality/comfort dynamic
What is the 574 color way called, I want to get it but I Can’t find it anywhere
@@bryceadkins6242 workwear/Jupiter
what about the Alpha Industries x 574 v2?
Just got mine in, dope shoe and the presentation in 10/10
Lately you talk about NB quite often. Maybe i will consider to buy it. I never have NB, due to most NB users are college kids here.
what do adults your age usually wear?
574 in grey, perfect place to start.
Been waiting for this one
I'm check out 327 and 57/40 they look nice.. just need good color way
