Great video, well constructed👌🏽. I own a pair of 992s in the maroon colorway, the dopest imo🥰. Still haven’t experienced the 990v5, but like you said there growing on me.
@@tcv030 They are so good right!? I bought 2 of the same, 1 as a beater and the other as a backup. I think it's almost time to replace my beater, once I do that I will most likely buy another pair as a replacement 😂
i just dropped 12k steps with the 990v5 and no foot fatigue at all. i feel like i can keep going. it's insane. if i get 8k steps with ultraboosts and infinity reacts i cant wait to take them off.
I have tried both pairs, but unfortunately the 992 I received was defective, as the sole was uneven on the right shoe, making it uncomfortable. So I just ended up sticking with the 990v5 and they are much lighter and seems to be built a little better. I do prefer the looks of the 992 more, but overall the 997 looks the best imo.
I don't know what's wrong with me, but the 992 is the most uncomfortable sneaker I've ever worn - it's hard, my heels hurt in it and it's heavier than the B5. It's just some kind of disaster) but outwardly I really like them - so on the one hand, I will sell them with pleasure, but on the other, it will be a pity..
I copped the 992s recently and they look great but they disappointed me in terms of comfort. Ive heard from multiple reviews that they were a tad bit less comfy than 990s but for me they were significantly less comfy than my 990s. The midsole foam is just so stiff I dont even think theyre more comfortable than 574s
Also one thing that I didn’t mention in the video, which is the durability of 990v5. I’ve been wearing them almost everyday to everywhere for like a year straight and they’re still in good shape! Haven’t tried with 992 though so can’t compare on this haha. But both pairs are definitely great!
@@TerryStyles I do think the durability on both should be good though. New balance really make some good stuff. I’ve done a few reviews with New Balance and I’ve said the same thing a few times.
I got both. 992s are for the hypebeasts and fashion heads. If I want to be comfortable all day, nothing beats 990v5. IMO 990 v5 and v4 are the most comfortable shoes from New Balance.
No worries man! The 990v5 comes with a better insole (softer) but they are not necessarily better for flat feet. However I still find it to be more comfortable with my orthotics when comparing to the 992. I’d definitely go to a good podiatrist to get a pair of orthotics done if you’re having flat feet problem.
@@TerryStyles Thank u. I'm thinking to buy 990v5, never wore this model, either 992. I will try it with "superfeet" insoles, if it won't work, then i will make custom insoles by podiatrist.
@@TerryStyles Thank u. Definitely i will try custom orthotics. Besides 990v5, what shoes do u recommend for everyday use to be useful with orthotics?. There are lot of shoes but not all is useful for orthotics, u know what i mean. For example, NB 574 may be good for many, but it didn't worked for me, heel is high and orthotics doesn't work well on this model. I have pain on ball of my feet when using NB 574, cuz it doesn't have enough cushion on forefoot.
@@RezoUI Tbh I'm not sure as I've been wearing my 990v5 for at least 80% of the time since I bought them and had the custom orthotics. But it's usually the wider shoes are better for me. If I were you, I'd go instore and try on the shoes with your orthotics.
Something no one mentions is that you can feel the absorb cushion in the forefoot and while it’s not uncomfortable, it’s always noticeable and it’s not as smooth as Nike air, so you can feel the edges of it and it’s not as smooth as the 990. That’s the biggest factor for me. Nice vide thanks!
I really enjoyed the review man. Well done.
Thank you so much! 🙏🏻 I really appreciate the kind words!
Underrated channels just subbed thanks my fellow Asian brotha ✊
Thanks bro, appreciate your kind words!!🙏🏻✊🏻
Both of them are great sneakers, but I have go to with the 992s. Dope vid.
instaBlaster
The 992 is more popular than the underrated 990v5.
Keep up the good work bro!
Thanks bro! Appreciate the love 🙏🏻🙏🏻
992 is more hype because of “culture” (basically Steve Jobs). Other than that, 990v5 is more comfortable in every other way. It’s been improved.
Great video, well constructed👌🏽. I own a pair of 992s in the maroon colorway, the dopest imo🥰. Still haven’t experienced the 990v5, but like you said there growing on me.
I know right? They are one of the best shoes haha. You should definitely give the 990v5 a go, I think you’ll like them!
@@TerryStyles now own 2 pairs of 990v5. Grey and black. What a shoe🥰
@@tcv030 They are so good right!? I bought 2 of the same, 1 as a beater and the other as a backup. I think it's almost time to replace my beater, once I do that I will most likely buy another pair as a replacement 😂
Great video...
Thank you!!🙏🏼
What do you prefer - 992 grey or 992 nimbus cloud?
I've got both sneakers and the 990 looks much bulkier on feet (very wide looking) but I equally love them.
Depends on my mood really...both 🔥🔥🔥🔥
best comparison
Thanks man!

Yes the built for 990v5 is incredible! I do like the 997 but the tip is a bit narrow comparing to the 992 and 990v5
Which one is your favorite?
Nice video man 👍🏽
I think if I were to choose one I’d go with the 990v5! Thank you! Appreciate the love🙏🏻
Love the comparison video, does anyone know if I am a US 8 in V5, should I stick to US 8 for 992? Thanks.
992s fit slightly snugger and narrow toe box. But same size should suffice. Also the shoe stretches out a lil as u break em in.
@@christopherchan5245 Thanks for the reply.
Cant go wrong with either
990 v5 all the way.
993 most comfortable tbh

i have the 992s and thinking about getting the 990s, do they fit the same?
@@kevinpalacios3126 They fit the same. .5 size down from your TTS.
992 All day! You should have done the 992 vs 993. I feel like those models are more similar.
That’s true but unfortunately I don’t have the 993😂
992 overall especially on looks. V5 has the slight edge in comfort. Ppl are still sleeping on the 991 though.
Thanks for video. I have also flat feet problems. So i have to choose 990v5 ?. I may use also orthotics with this cuz i have feet pronation problem.

Definitely get the custom one if you can afford them (usually a lot more expensive), it’ll be better in the long run.

Im kinda wide footed so for the 992 do I go for a 10 or 9.5?
How wide are you talking? I wear US10 for Jordan feeling a bit snugged and find 992 in US10 quite big, I could go 9.5. Hope this helps!
was just thinking about this hahaha
Perfect haha😂
I went ahead and ordered my 1st pair went with the 992 because it looks better
Definitely one of the best looking pair out there!
Hows the sizing? TTS? .5 down?
To me the 992 feels bigger, can go .5 down. 990v5 I’m wearing tts
990s are the better shoe
why the demand is a subject
992 are The best
Did you buy them in the same size?
Yup both are US10
In 900v5, what sizing that i should wear?
990v5? I'm a US10, and I went true to size. Some people tend to go half a size lower for a snug fit.
@@TerryStyles thanks a lot
what about 990v5 vs 2002r!! i was thinking to buy 2002r but there ml2002r and much more but not sure which one is best ??
I don’t own a pair of 2002r but would love to and do a comparison in the future!
Something no one mentions is that you can feel the absorb cushion in the forefoot and while it’s not uncomfortable, it’s always noticeable and it’s not as smooth as Nike air, so you can feel the edges of it and it’s not as smooth as the 990. That’s the biggest factor for me. Nice vide thanks!
Thanks for sharing! I’ve never noticed it before! Gonna take note of that from now on!😂
@@TerryStyles Let me know....I hope I don't ruin it for you ;-)
Haha definitely not! But it’s something good to know
@@TerryStyles well let me know boss 😉
Yeah! It’s the worst.
New balance 992 TTS or half size down?
I would say half size down for a better snug fit
@@TerryStyles thanks ✌🏾
Do you have an ig account?
Not yet, I will open an account in the future when I can dedicate more time on social media! Cheers!
992s look way better and more comfy
990v5 way comfier
compares grey shoes....wears grey sweatshirt...... annoying
I love both, but if the looks of the 992’s and the comfort level of the 990v5 where combined into one sneaker, 🤌🏾
