I went TTS as I have a wide foot, and yes its just a little bit long but already a tight fit for my foot. Would be uncomfortably tight if I went half size down.
I agree but I also dig the 992, 993, 1500, 577, and 1300! New Balance has better quality shoes than other brands! Especially if you buy a nice pair! J. Crew, Kith,jjjound, etc!
How is the comfort compared to the 2002r?? I found the 2002r more comfortable then the 990.V5. I have the new balance lerato which is a full slab of fuel cell with a carbon plate. I'm wondering how similar they will be on foot.
I agree when I got these from goat in A size 12 (my tts) they were a bit long and I had some space in the heel . So I would advise ppl to try this on first but I’m going down a half a size from here on in the v6
Guys I just bought these in a size 11. the salesman told me to try the 11.5 after measuring my foot. But it it felt way to big. I usually buy 10.5 in sneakers. For these shoes break In? Will the 11 be too big?
Great review ! I love my v5s - Sizing seems weird, so maybe I'll go down half a size like I did with the v5s and go with a wide width (but not x wide) These come in about 4 different widths, so you can kind of custom your fit to that. I also love the more colorful Action Bronson v6s, I hope those release soon.
Went tts it fits like a dream. Plenty of wiggle room in the toes but that’s better than no room. I have wide feet though so maybe that’s just good for me.
haven't noticed this in any other footage of the V6 but the mesh looks hella shiny/plasticy, is that the case? Also they look a weird shape front on, pointy
Many people say go down 0.5. But some say TTS. It’s best you try it on to see for yourself. Our feet are different. Also, some people like their shoes to have more room, and then some of them like a snug fit. Take the sizing advice with a grain of salt.
V concerned about my kia getting stolen here in Chicago. Might have to invest in some good walking shoes if those tiktok boys jack my ride. Thanks for the review Brad.
Brad, I don’t like these I like the previous versions because they’re sleep of I wanted a chunkier model I’d go for 574 all one of there alternate models som this model I don’t like 😊but fire review I respect your opinion wholeheartedly 😊
Sent the v6 back the day I received them. Nowhere near the quality of the v5. The tongue has zero padding, just a piece of thin, scratchy, rough mesh. There's no padding inside the back of the shoes behind the heel either, just a piece of mesh over a hard heel counter. The supportive sole is gone, your foot sinks almost to the ground with each step. This makes the joints and ligaments work harder and puts more strain on them as you try to push off. The sizing is nothing like the v5. V6 is a full size longer and a size narrower in the toe box. The materials appear cheaper and not nearly as durable as the v5 outsoles, undersole and uppers. I doubt the v6 will hold up and last as long as the v5 shoes have. Nothing wrong with the looks, but fit, support and durability goes to the v5. Hands down. V5 has the perfect blend of support and cushion, along with great looks. After all the v6 hype, sorry to say, in real life it was a huge disappointment for me.
I like them curvy and thick too, Brad. I also appreciate them nicely cushioned. I really enjoyed this review, have a great day.
Hope you have a great one too, BRED
Was initially skeptical when I first saw the V6. But after seeing your review, i think the silhouette'll grow on me. Nice review, take care!

Splendid review Bradley. Wasn't too sure about these but after your thorough review, I will have to pick these up.
Happy to help
Thank you Brad, very cool. New balance is becoming a fave of mine.
They've been on a hot streak for awhile
a perfect dad shoe reviewed by the perfect shoe dad. thanks brad
I appreciate it, snek
Hey, Brad. It’s been a while since i’ve seen one of yours videos, but I’m glad you’re still here. Love ya Brad
Just received my 990v6. Love, Love them! Thanks for the help!!
These and the V2s are my favorite. The shape is just beautiful 🤩

Tienes los response cl? Que talla eres en los response? Gracias
Great vid as always. Those v6s look really nice.
Hey, Brad, thanks for posting another great video. Hope you are well.
Thanks, SB. I'm doing well. Hope you are too
Your video has a vibe that reminds me of some old kid programs I watched when I was a child 🤣🤣
another day another great brad upload
I love jack harlow
Brad hall x Joe Pera go sneaker shopping when?
Great to see you Brad! Those NB kix look fresh 🥶
Thanks, jxp
Love you Brad. Thank you for the review.
🐐 thanks for posting Brad
Very insightful, Brad.
Dope review as always Brad. What are your thoughts on 574s?
Thanks. Not a big fan of them
@@bradhallshoes I’ve always thought they were a classic clean silhouette but respect your opinion Brad.
Does V6 good for a Fight Club or V5 is still the king?
Thanks for the review!
They be looking fire on you my guy
Thanks, Alola Z
Brad, can you do a standing or run test?
How’s the toe box vs the v5, the v5 is narrow for me
Guys I just bought these in a size 11. the salesman told me to try the 11.5 after measuring my foot. But it it felt way to big. I usually buy 10.5 in sneakers. For these shoes break In? Will the 11 be too big?
How'd it end up fitting
Thank you does it share any similarities to v6 vehicle? Would it work as one? Could you explore this please.
Hey Brad do you mind telling me what kind of jeans you have on here? Lookin for some plain jeans that aren’t distressed and such. Thanks
Thanks for hte video brad 😃 I like the new V6s!
Thank you Bradley ❤
Love these
Thanks Brad good stuff as per usual! 👍

I went down a half size, with wide width. Great fit! Too narrow in standard for me.
@@isaac-ne4oxI’m looking to get my first v6 and was thinking of going with wide width and half size down. My feet lean towards the wider side.
haven't noticed this in any other footage of the V6 but the mesh looks hella shiny/plasticy, is that the case? Also they look a weird shape front on, pointy
How does this compare to the 1540 V3
V5 deserves some love but I am excited to go pick these up! Nice review!
Im usually a 8.5 should i go down a half a size

I like the looks except the lack of more suede makes them look like a downgrade
V concerned about my kia getting stolen here in Chicago. Might have to invest in some good walking shoes if those tiktok boys jack my ride. Thanks for the review Brad.
Thanks for watching, peps
my feet is 27cm, so which sizes I have to pick now?
The best release of the year
sizing compared to 2002?
Brad, I'm worried you don't remember how that blood got on your 990v5's. Maybe there's a shoe cleaner sponsor that specializes in blood stain removal?
I got the grey waiting for the black tho
New Balance “Fresh Foam” x Sketchers “Airy”= 990 V6
Exactly.
990 v6!🕺🏻
The v5 toebox has blood on it 💀
Fuego 🔥
Bro, I got so much pairs that are a little too small... F me :( and now with my massive orthopedic insole its terrible :(
Sounds like Dana Carvey doing a George Bush impression
Brad, I don’t like these I like the previous versions because they’re sleep of I wanted a chunkier model I’d go for 574 all one of there alternate models som this model I don’t like 😊but fire review I respect your opinion wholeheartedly 😊
Thanks, Karen. I'll have to take another look at that 574 I've never thought of it as being chunky
#Karen K: I agree. Not a fan. Love the look of the v5 -- and it's the perfect blend of support and cushion. Just right. I'll be passing on the v6.
These are shoes!
so 1/2 size down or TTS?
I feel 1/2 down now since I got them
A lil too long in the front I think
Will still have to walk in them to figure it out
What did you think?
@@kenethc I did get 1/2 down (my 990v3 size) and they were too small. I returned them and went TTS.
On feet was nice
Those shoes look like they were hurting when Action Bronson was wearing them. Like help he’s killing us.
This guy is straight up gangsta.
Hi Brad
Hi, BEATO_
Way better than the v5s. Those are the worst ones.
990 or 2002?
990
v5 is the cleanest looking imo. No nonsense.
Couldn’t agree more…perfect looking shoe….V3 a close second.
V6 > V5
V5 is my fav. Looks so clean. V6 is too soft for my taste. Not enough suede too.
No it’s not it’s rhe V4 then v3 then v6 then v5. V5 sucks cuz it’s rhe chunkiest
@@MackMizzle323 V5 every day and twice on sundays.
Balance V6 is nuclear!!
Yeeeessssss!!!! 💪💪💪✌️
Hey brad
Hi, GM
hello brad hall, how are you? I hope you're doing great! Can you give me good luck?
I wish you the best luck, felipe. Hope you're doing well too
1/2 size down 100%
Good lookin shoes. Been lookin to buy new shoes
Are these cool or not? I need Brad to tell me.
Brad giving Jeffrey dahmer vibes
Dude his older stuff was even creepier
😂
V1 is by FAR the best looking.
😍🤩
So that blood huh brad…
idk lowkey than the v5
Could you see yourself in some khaki shorts wearing these while mowing the lawn?
I can imagine that
I'm sold
You can always wear thick socks in case the shoes fit a little big
Good point
Does this guy purposely try to look like he coming out of some 50's dad show
Only 992 go true to size all other go half down
that forefoot sole is gonna eat tons of small stones....
Doesn't know where the blood came from. Suuuure.
990v5> all the other 990s
Nah these are sporty dad shoes. Not cool dad shoes :/
