    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!!

    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.

    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

    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

      Very true about the 990v3. I've had them for over 5 years now and they are so well broken in/comfortable and ultra durable and they're my daily shoes. I don't feel the same about the 992 and had them for about 3 years. My girl just got me 993s so hopefully they'll be like my 990v3s.

    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.

    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

      Bro that is so me rn I’m having foot problems I currently suffer from foot drop and I need to wear a foot brace and I haven’t found a right shoe to cop because since I always wore J1& dunks they was to tight . So like u mention my DR to said get new balances . And rn I’m seeing the new balances 993 indigo vintage on they site and idk which width to select I do need a wider shoe but what’s the main difference from like the widths . From “ standard, wide , x-wide ) I really like toe indigo 993 just don’t know which width would be better either the “ wide or the x-wide”
      Also in sizing what should I get I’m usually a 9 in Jordan’s and dunks . Would a 10 be better I do want a roomy and wider shoe

Hopefully I can get a pair soon. I need good support for all of the foot. Talked with Orthopedic Dr who wants to know what pair I get. I told him to research N B site.

    If you have a VERY wide foot, the 990 is available in 6E widths. I don't think the 992 and 993 are. As for fashion, they're all ugly compared to Nike and other "cool" sneakers, but that's not a consideration for me. I wear my 990v5 for walking 6+ miles every day through the streets of NYC, not back and forth on the runway.

    • @guynkicks
      @guynkicks  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I currently don’t own a 991, but my experience with any NB in the 99X line is that they run a bit bigger. So for the most part I’ve bought them a .5 size smaller.

    • @minalyons1
      @minalyons1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey there, I actually do own a 991 made in UK and they are at my feet at the moment. I’d say you can easily go a half size bigger with these. Also, they look way more chunkier than 990v5 just like 992 & 993 due to the look of their soles.
      edit: I saw a comment like mine below, I think made in uk shoes run a little smaller compared to usa ones. I will be getting a 990v5 soon so will see how it turns out.
