Grey NB!🔥

Great review dude!

v4s are goated

It’s pretty insane that a sneakerhead’s favorite shoe of all time is the 990. 10 years ago nobody (not even NB fans) cared about them, to the point where you might be made fun of in school.

Great take. I do struggle with grey suede. It gets darker in the back and next to first lace hole and I am not sure it’s due to decolorisarion or just dirty and need to scrub more. Still wonder;) cheers

Curious why you opt for the school eraser over the suede eraser?

The sound the bottle makes at 4:20 I’m dead man. Love your channel keep it up bro 🫡

Cleaning suede is always tough. If they caught a lot of sun they just get cooked, but I kinda like that faded look :)

That water killed the suede and didn’t make it any cleaner than it looked after just the eraser

Nice vid, good tips. But instead of using a brush to un-harden the dry suede, you can use a small rounded nail filer. I use a round staple remover i took from an old job and it works so good to bring back the hairiness of the suede.

Nice been waiting for this my 990v6 orange sepia is dirty 😅

Take the shoelaces out first 😢

Thats a DOpe 990v4

I quite wanted to get these and took an L of course . However I got them in hand yesterday at Kith ( they had one pair of very small size left ) and frankly I was not impressed. No way I am paying resell for these …

Nice! 👍🔥💪

Great video bro!

993 better for me. (for wide foot people don’t go half size down if you don’t want to buy another one)

idk if i’m the only one that has this happened to me but the translucent part on my 990’s turned into this greenish grey colour and i think it looks amazing

What got me started is my friend is from DC and he hipped me to the culture and how it’s been a shoe of the DC (DMV) for 4 decades … it’s even videos on it on here on CZcams and NB page made an ode to DC on their grey day roll out

Just got my first pair of v6’s … only had them on for 30 minutes … I’m going back to get me a black pair … Nordstrom’s have them on sale now …

Thanks for this comparison. I’ve worn the 990 v5 since it came out and had to buy the v6 when my NB store didn’t have the v5 in stock. The v6 was a nice shoe but after a few days I couldn’t wear them so I gave them away. Now I can’t find the v5 online in my size. This video has been very helpful and I will be trying the v4.

get the carhartt V1s - those are the best in my opinion

Jesus loves you

Just grabbed offer up 992 dtlr DC woooo baby

Long time subs here. Great vid always and I can see ur passion when u talking about NBs. Wondering if you use wooden shoe trees? if so, any recommendations?

Stock X has been known for selling lots of fake pairs of sneakers recently, even though they say they guarantee authenticity 😢

what shoe display are you using in the background and are they sturdy and dust free?

You going true to size with the 990v1 or half size down ? I heard both sides. Size down and some tts

Do some videos on some other NB models... the 480, 580, 550, 650, the Rainier boots (Lou Whittaker climbed Mt. Everest wearing those)... the 1500, 577... seems like u do a lot of videos on the 99X line

Some other places you could have added to the list, or maybe you want to do another video on it. Nordstrom Rack currently has a pair of gray 996s for about 70 bucks, I think, maybe less. Also, you mentioned those 1906 SSense collab, and you said it looks like a kiwi.. Look into the 992 low hanging fruit. It's an actual kiwi in storytelling. And they are criminally underpriced and underrated Concepts collab. By far, my favorite 992. It's the only new balance in the 99x category that's completely sued with no mesh. All hairy Suede.

Wow. Americans really don’t know how to dress 😂

eBay has always been my best friend😂 UPDATE: I missed on the Medusa’s smh

V1 is very slept on by NB collectors

Such a great video I never knew I needed, thanks!

eBay is goated for rare pairs at steals

Such a great video! Kith is always my go to source for New Balances I got a chance to go to there stores in West Hollywood and Beverly Hills and can tell you they’re worth a visit. There newest sneaker for the opening of the Malibu store is 🔥. Thanks for making this list some other good places are DTLR, Packer, Shiekh, Coollicks and Shoe Palace.

Appreciate the share mate! I get my New Balances from everywhere as well, mainly using Google to search who directs my to places like: BAE, BSTN, Spectrum (now mostly sold out but great steals) and footdistrict. I might need to start looking at ebay more to snag a sick pair of 992's!

Lapstone and Hammer is a good one too! They had a site wide 40% off sale recently for July 4th.

First :)

Im sorry but putting a handful of loud colors together that grabs the eye doesn't make them look good. glorified clown shoes propped up by a "look at me" society imo. Nike has many, MANY examples of this.

If theres a heaven, whoever is at the gate is rocking a Grey New Balance

I got mine about 5 days ago from EQL raffle and couldn’t be happier. I have less than 5 pairs of NB’s out of about 300 pair collection but these were immediately eye catching. They really stand out with cool design and coloring. These can be had for a great price even for resale right now. Don’t sleep if you didn’t get already! You made me nervous when showing the badge I was looking at the left shoe like you had on video and it wasn’t there but the badge was on the right shoe and just saw it on mine. These might be my favorite NB’s ever just going by looks. My favorite NB for comfort and to wear is the 990 V3 Teddy Santis sea salt. Appreciate the video and keep up good work!

Thanks for the review. I got a few but I shoulda sized up. Very tight for a NB. Will stretch over time. Love the color of these. More of a running active wear shoe for me vs. comfort. Rosewaters are great for chicks. I wouldnt wear. Something to satisfy everyont.

Never got a W on any Action Bronson release. 🤷 oh well, maybe the 992s (manifesting)

Compared 993 with 990v6: Which tongue sticks more out?

The details are insane I wish more brands would collab with New Balance tho. The potential is sky high with the silhouettes

These will jump up later dont sleep

i left my tag on the shoe cause it actually works great not too big

I have these on my feet now and the coolest thing is the way he used 2 types of 3m so they create the effect of the jellyfish when light moves on them sooo coool
