993 have been my favorite model since I got into NBs around 10 years ago. Unfortunatly for a long time they were not available in Europe so they were actually kind of hard to get. Luckily they came out in Europe in 2023 so I was able to stock up on the regular grey pairs. A few places have had them in the og black cw bur they sold out fast. I hope they will get them on the european NB site.
I am glad you were able to stock up on them! the 993 is a shoe that I could not live without lol! I would love to get a pair in the black color way, hopefully they put them up soon
Just got my GF a pair of 993 and she’s hasn’t stopped wearing them. She has 2 pairs of 990v4 as well but the 993 is her go to. Keep the good content coming 🔥
The author of the channel may not agree with me, but the gold standard NB for me personally, according to all criteria (stabilization, roll, moderate softness, design) is exactly 990 v4, v5, other models are either softer or more stabilizing of the foot, but that’s it the golden mean is v4, v5, for example v6 are comfortable, soft, but in the heel they are not so stable and fall a little
Hey question, I just started getting into New Balance lifestyle shoes. Bought and waiting on the 993 in the mail. The 990s seem to update every year or two right? But the 993 seems to have one version. Has the 993 ever been updated or has it always been this one version? And the website only has gray. Do they release other colors as well? I'm assuming that's a seasonal thing? Thanks man.
The 990 gets the most updates. The 993 only has one version. I’m not quite sure why they only have one version (maybe because it’s perfect lol). I’m pretty sure they are going to start to release new colors for the 993 in the next few months.
There was a lot of time between the 990v1 (1982), 990v2 (1998), and 990v3 (2012). We’ve only seen more 990 revamps since the 2010s. Between the 990v2 and v3, New Balance released the 991v1, 992, and 993. The 992 and 993 only have one version.
@@samdopkosky The 992 was recently discontinued before Teddy Santis started with NB Season 1. The 993 is back with three colorways this year, and the all gray is still available.
I think the 9060s are very comfortable! They are very wide and chunky which makes them stand out from other new balance models. They feature abzorb in the heel which adds to the comfort. It is hard to compare them to a 990 or a 993 but they are for sure a very comfortable every day sneaker!

I love mine. These shoes are made of pure passion.
love your content man, big NB fan form the UK and they aren't so big here. My 993 are my favourite shoes i've ever owned
I appreciate it! I’m glad you like it. You can never go wrong with the 993, I’m catching myself wearing it more and more
just copped the olive 990v4 may have to get a grey pair too@@samdopkosky

I have been doing the same thing! The 993 is unmatched!

Absolutely not. Folks rocking NB from time know that the 993 model has been class. Glad that NB keeps producing models in it's core range.
There are three Teddy Santis designed 993s dropping for season five. The white suede joints with gum tread go off.
My favourite NB - even though comfort wise they are not great for a full day. But shape is on point.
I 100% agree
What WOULD you guys suggest for an all day standing shoe? 990v5? Never had NB looking for my 8hour standing work day

I ordered a 993 recently as well. How long did it take to get yours in the mail?
992’s are the most comfortable shoes I’ve worn. 993’s are comfortable as well. Been wearing NB’s for 25 years.
I want a pair of 992s so bad, hopefully they re-release them soon! 25 years in new balance is a huge achievement

@@ianturnbow7011 hopefully someday they put out the 992 again
The midsole on those look pretty thick, though. In your opinion, can the 993s give something like 1 inch of height on top of me?
I would say it gives about an inch. I can for sure feel a height difference when I wear them
watching your vids but haven't seen you with a pair of 2002r? do you not like them because of comfort? or have i just missed a video?
I don’t have a pair of 2002rs yet. They are next on my list! I’ve only heard amazing things about them so I need to get a pair
@@samdopkosky i see! will wait for your video when you get them. hope it's the rain cloud cw. cheers!
should i get standard 993 grey or teddy santis U993GG?
You can never go wrong with the classic grey but if you want a little extra spice to it, for sure go with the teddy pair
There are so many great shoes New Balance makes that ultimately it just depends on what looks good & feels good for you 💯
Ps. Love the 993 and the 2002r on myself 👌
100%!!
Bro is the 993 wider than 990v3 or v4?
I would say the 990v4 is the widest of the three and then the 993 then the 990v3. they are all wide foot friendly in my opinion
993 the choice of Joe McKenna and Inez van Lamsweerde etc, can't go wrong
What is the best 993 usa 0r 991 Ukv2
They are both amazing sneakers but, if I had to pick I would choose the 991v2
Hi sam is it 993 dark grey colour than 990v4. V5
The 993 is darker that the 990s. It’s very hard to tell but it is a little bit darker. Not enough to notice unless you held them side by side
I think they are getting overshadowed by the 991v2 and the lack of color ways/collabs doesn’t help either
You are so right! There is not enough color ways for it and the 991v2 is for sure outshining it!
991v2 is reserved for men who have narrow girl-like feet. Real men wear 993s.
where do you rate 9060s in comfort?
I think the 9060s are very comfortable! They are very wide and chunky which makes them stand out from other new balance models. They feature abzorb in the heel which adds to the comfort. It is hard to compare them to a 990 or a 993 but they are for sure a very comfortable every day sneaker!
Compared 993 with 990v6: Which tongue sticks more out?
The 993 is a thicker tongue
The 993 is definitely an underrated New Balance model. There are some new colors coming soon!
I’m so excited about the cream pair and the green pair!
993 looks great
993 def underrated
Really hoping 992 gets brought back. Suspecting 2026 for 20 year anniversary 🎉
We NEED the 992 back!
They will be released again either at the end of the year or the beginning of 2025
993 has a more rigid feeling to me.
Like the 993 better than 990 series
I personally find 990 v4,v5 more comfortable than 993....
I’m gonna have to agree with this statement
993 is think even better then 990
Most comfortable made pair for me ❤
This is the most boring video. I cant bro. Congrats on growing up rich
