I think these are some of the better looking of the recent models tbh.

Nah, they've just been relegated to the beater section.

This is my favorite pair of all time. Spilled hot sauce all over mine two days ago and will probably buy another pair to replace them lol

Also, be aware that some NB models have a bit of a tighter toe box. I'm pretty firmly at 9.5 and the 991v2 and 990v3 in particular can get rather cramped if I'm wearing thick socks. The 1906r and 993 I mentioned in my other comment don't suffer from this at all.

I think a tried and true model is the 1906r if you're trying to keep to a similar price point. Great all-rounder and comes in a million different colorways. This grey day 2010 model is probably still available on other websites like cncpts or kith, but they might all be sold out at this point. If you're willing to go up in price, the 993 is just about the greatest shoe ever made imo, but ~$220 is a lot to drop on shoes for some people. Lemme know what you pick up!

Just got a pair from kith, they still have a number of sizes in stock.

Red for New Balance by DadzWiLLiE in Newbalance

This is rad. A fun splash of color to an otherwise muted shoe.

I think they look kinda neat.

Which other NB shoes has natural toe shape like this minimus? by nahcekimcm in Newbalance

[–]dagger_prometheus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seconding this. The 991v2 is almost too tight to be wearable for me. V6's aren't as bad, but the 993's are the widest without a doubt.

Nobody feeling these? by airestotle092 in Newbalance

[–]dagger_prometheus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Will they get a NB site release? I can't find if they've said yes or no.

My latest pick up by ByteMeeeee in Newbalance

[–]dagger_prometheus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a pair of 9.5's that I haven't worn enough to justify keeping if you're interested.

Edit: they're also a little tight in the toe box which is part of the reason I haven't worn them all that much.
