Exactly the video I wanted to see. Just saw these exact V2s at a nearby boutique, tried them on and...yeah, for me there was a big difference in comfort compared to my older V3s I had on. Felt ok on the heel and midfoot, but the forefoot was much less comfortable, again...that's just me. So no Encap on V2, perhaps personally that makes a big difference. Realize V2 are obviously a much older model. I passed on them, kinda of a bummer though, these V2s do look amazing! Thanks for the video!
I'm so happy i didn't impulse buy a pair of 990v2s when I saw a BNDS pair for 130 USD, cuz a week after I managed to find a bnds Bodega V3 in my size locally!
I already have the 990V2 in Navy, contemplating getting the black as well. But not sure in your opinion since this comparison involves both navy and black, do you find owning both redundant? They are both darker colors and not too far off from each other in some pics.
V2s are gorgeous

Two of my fav new balance designs!
Love your channel man, really good hub for all things nb
Need those 990v3 Genesis. So nice.
V2 looks better.
V2 looks nicer to me.
I'm not sure but the other 99x looks so sporty or too random. The 992s are probably the best for casual or street wear. Would you agree?
When it rains, you going in v2 and nose, front part is wet(

Both are very low-key, versatile colors, so I think owning both would be redundant.
@@DylanLey that’s fair
Such an interesting video. On the NB website I see a 990v2 and a 990v2 Core. What's the difference? Great content in your video, thanks Dylan!
The core is regular production. If it's not listed as core than its a limited run. The cores always come back the rest may not.
@@DMac12flyers Thanks for explaining. Just my opinion, but I think New Balance has over-extended its product line.
V2 piss over the v3
