I’m so glad I became a new balance lover before all the hype. My favorite part of these is the color paneling and the beautiful long haired suede. As a designer I appreciate the font he chose to use for branding it feels more genuine and care was put into the footwear this is an easy 10/10 shoe for me.
Saw this vid when it came out and totally forgot about your comments on the sizing. I was bummed I had to settle for a half size down on yesterday's release since my true size is sold out. Glad I checked your vid again and fingers crossed my pair will have that longer and roomier toe box =) Great vid as always!
Man i am late on this video, but thank you for it. Really good review. Dates just announced in Canada. The rough suede is incredible. Have only seen that much texture on my 1300 Levi’s Made in USA. New box looks nice; although, i will miss the Made in USA flag box. V1, V2, and V3 all slated for Thursday release. Going to be hard not buying them all if I’m able to beat the in-store rush in my city.
Finally this collection is dropping this week. A little surprised on the prices of the apparel. I thought we’d get NB GR pricing but it seems it’s basically just ALD prices on the hoodies, t’s etc. it all looks so good tho. The new 990v3’s are on point.
Colorway is super clean and I’m so happy I was able to buy them today! :) I’ve been wanting a pair of 990v2s. Really nice overlooked silhouette IMO. I was 40,161 in line. I thought I wouldn’t get them… but I did!
I don't know how I missed this review but I'm glad I went back.. those are absolutely beautiful.. is there any release dates thus far? Great review as always!
NB been absolutely killing it. Sill enjoy my Jordans but I find myself wearing NB nearly everyday. I find them so comfortable and just love that more mature look…but the big 40 is looming so maybe I’m just old 😂 Love your content dude. Much love from the UK 👊
Great explanation. I would like to buy them. It’s my first pair of new balance. My biggest foot measures 28cm ... what size do you recommend? 10US can be okay?
@@guynkicks Thank you very much for the quick and kind reply. I can’t understand the meaning of TTS in general. With TTS do you indicate the correspondence in cm declared by the producer site? Or does TTS mean the size you usually wear? I for example (foot length 28cm) wear Adidas 44 2/3 which corresponds to JP 28.5. Anyway, I listen to your advice and take the 44 (10 US / 28cm) of this new balance 😀
Thanks for the review, man! Just hit on NB. I’m a true 10 in 993 and a 10.5 in 991s. Is that extra space significant? Or not too bad that you’ll still rock?
Are you sure these are not a collab? Lol. The hairy suede looks nice and I love the olive in the mesh. They are really taking full advantage of the depth of this model. Dope review. I think the shoes may fit a bit wider is because the hairy suede is more pliable than the traditional suede used in 990s. Either way, I’m digging them. Give me GR NBs all day. Lol. They cream laces are the way to go for me.
Im kinda new to buying sneakers. Been growing a collection for maybe a year now? The only pair i have that I didnt go tts on is the yeezy 350 v2 and it worked out. Half a size up fit me just right. For new balance shoes i see so many people saying they go down half a size, but just as many saying they go tts in most if not all models. Could i get away with tts on this pair, or do you not recommend that at all?
@@guynkicks Don't have any NB pairs yet. I'd say my width is normal. I'm thinking of just going tts regardless of model because I really don't like it when I don't have any wiggle room in the toe section
was shocked that after waiting 50+ mins in the queue I got through and was able to get a pair. Actually hopped back in line and was able to get the v1's also. I was hoping that the hype would be minimal. Can't wait to get them in hand
@@guynkicks yessir. That being said I have had NB cancel orders on me before during high demand releases so until I get the shipment notification I’m not expecting anything.
Dang, ever since the first scan of that preview card dropped online I knew I'd be in trouble. I was mostly just excited for whenever the 990v6 was going to drop, but looks like I'll be picking up a few more pairs than I thought lol. I like these a lot, but kind of wish they went with a slightly different color for the top panels, instead of the light grey. I think something like a light brown/coffee color would have gone better with the khaki/olive/dark grey combo. Still a beautiful, just not for me.
It amazes me how far New Balance has come. I remember 18 years ago when the M574 was probably NB's most notable out of the lifestyle line. Those particular 990v2 are great looking. Interesting see how folks will act when there's a general release. I think NB made a wise decision to hire Teddy Santis.
I wear US10 in the 990v4 and 993 Made in USA. Bought these in US10 and they're def a little looser than the others. Not sure sizing down half would help as length isn't really the problem - it's the extra space in the toe box. Great looking shoe nonetheless.
Teddy could not have come out with a better pair as the first leak of what’s instore for this year. The colour panelling and details of this pair is beyond insane. The GR card showcasing what’s to come is gonna be a huge problem for my wallet this year 😩😭
@@guynkicks not into the light tan heel or the olive mesh they threw in with the colors in play already. It doesn’t scream “must have” or anything to me looking like a fancy NB1 for someone working off the GR grey build. I gotta be more picky in 2022 & it’s absolute bangers or pass for me this year
Can't wait for these
@Sean Go You’re going to love them bro! Exciting times 😂
The v3 is amazing too
I'm so stoked about this next era of New Balance, really hope that Teddy is able to really go crazy with some GRs
I hope so too!

thanks for letting us know you liked something before it was cool
🙏🏼
Teddy came out swinging! Great review!
Thanks bro, he did 😂
Another fire review! So excited about these and it’s gonna be an expensive year!
💸💸
those are beautiful. cant wait for the rest of the colorways and models to drop. also looking forward to the 990v6 release
Oh yeah, can’t wait for that V6.
Glad you got them early! Nice review as usual man 🤙
🙏🏼🙏🏼

Yeah let me know! I’m curious to know if this is on all pairs or maybe the pair I have was from the initial construction.
In a similar boat. Being a true 13.5 all prior v2s in a 13 were too snug. So I sized up to a 14 on these. I’m hoping it’s not too loose.
Got them in the other day and yes, half size down was perfect! Toe box is definitely roomier and slightly longer.
I just had my order confirmed! I'm looking forward to putting these on next week

I think this is the flare the 990v2 needed
This is not my favorite sillohuete but that color looks so nice
I agree!!
Such a great video bro! Congrats on the come up
I appreciate you 🙏🏼🙏🏼
im contemplating of getting this one or the black camo.
these are fireeeeee as all the collection coming!!

These are really good, you should definitely grab them.
These are dope. Thanks for another awesome review. Any hint on release date for these? Couldn’t find anything about them online

Great review as always

Which one you prefer the 650 or the teddy 990v1? Thanks sir in advance

When do these drop/where can I cop?
No official date yet. Just keep an eye on local retailers for when they start dropping.
Very exciting time to be a nb fan
Absolutely 🕺🏻
Absolute flames!

Going down half a size is the best bet. Greetings from Germany
