- Опубліковано 25 лип 2024
- To celebrate this year's New Balance Grey Day, the brand dropped a pack of Made in USA pairs featuring a grey / blue colour scheme. One of the pairs I picked up was the 990 V6, the latest iteration of the brand's iconic 990 running shoe series. Check out my in-depth review to learn more and to see how they look on feet!

Mine are arriving later today, i also grabbed the v4 and v6 your video has me even more hyped.
I still haven’t tried the v6 in any colorway for this colorway and your review have started warming me up to the model more.
Good thing I went to a store for the right fit. I’m glad the v4 returns, although the v6 fashions this colorway the best. Looking forward to more general releases. ☑️
Thanks for the review, love you bro, you are the best sneaker blogger.
Dope video.
Think I’ll have to pick these up. That cream on the heel is super clean and the blue pop is very fresh. 😎☀️
These are gorgeous, can't believe they bait and switched on the laces though!
If I didn’t hit on the thunders, I would’ve 100% copped these. SO CLEAN
Your reviews convinced me to get the V4 and the V6! Thanks sean
❤️🙏👏
@@SeanGo same
very chill color, I'm impressed.
Wow this color is so good
I was trying to hold out for the V6 Lapis Lazuli but who knows when those will come out. I’m pulling the trigger on these V6s. Thanks Sean, my office is starting to look like a sneaker shop because of all of your 🔥 NB reviews. 😂
hahaha 😂
Wish I waited for these rather than getting the OG grey. This colorway is so nice.
I completely agree with you on the smoother suede being much better. I don't get the hairy suede... it looks weird and seems like it would be impossible to clean. It's the reason I'm passing on the v4's.
Great minds think alike. I copped the same 2. Almost grabbed the 998 as well. Still might to be honest. They are fire.
I Got The 990 V4. Have The Grey And Black In The 990 V6 Already. Will Wait For Another Colorway.👍🏽💪🏽🤙🏽
So fire 🔥
Thanks for the vid, bro 👊
Was gonna cop, but reading the comments ~ I’m shocked they don’t come with the cream laces they’re advertised with! Yo for £220.00 I want cream, white and blues laces 😕🫠
Yeah I copped these should be here today
fireeeeee!!!🔥🔥
Personally liked to other releases on the same day more than the Grey Day collection. The 9060 Artic Grey was really nice, but sold out quickly. Didn't get a chance to get. The 550 and the 580 are not bad, but I'm considering getting the More Trail v3 Slate Grey. I've been waiting for a decent CW of the More V4 to add to my daily running shoe rotation, but the trail version might be good enough. Maybe it'll inspire me to do more trail running.
Upset how New Balance baited us with the cream/sail laces only to get white laces. Part of the reason why I bought these shoes is cause I thought it looked so good with the cream/sail laces.
Sat out since getting the v3 marblehead but ordered these as my intro into the v6 lol
mine came with only white laces but i changed them out with the cream laces from the bodega 9060, funny how that little bit of blue & cream change the look of the shoe so much
TC6 is so fire!!
This is the first colorway that makes me wanna pickup the V6
Same
Review on new NB ALD 550 Brown Suede please 🙏🏻 Haven’t seen any review about it.
Sean - I’m wanting to buy cream laces for these since NB pulled the bait and switch. Got any brands and do you know what length we should go for ?
EDIT: took the cream pair out of another shoes. Perfection.
i tried the grey 990v6 yesterday and it was tight compared to my 990v3 and it was so long so i suggest going for a wide and half size down.
Got my V6s on the way. Can’t believe the official photos from NB have cream laces but they have white ones instead. Gonna have to pick up some cream ones or dye these
Same
That’s a big let down
@@AshBashSneakers it might stop me from buying tbh
It makes zero sense. I can’t believe the creme is not included.
Did you get the blue laces Sean showed with his? I just got mine in today, and only had the white laces in the shoe.
Wow 🔥
Short hair suede is definitely the way to go. Especially on the v6.
🐐🔥🔥🔥
Did they come with the cream shoe laces that what make them tough?
Thanks alot for the review. I picked up v4, 9060 and More Trail… wanted to get the v6 but sold out…. I would say I found 9060 and the more trail are really nice. V4 also very good probably because I prefer those more hairy suede… v6, I am a bit torn between the OG grey and this.. I do find OG grey colour look better on v6. As I hv not picked up any v6 yet so I may end up getting the OG colour instead of this grey day colour way.
Just in case you’re still deciding, they’ve restocked on the v6 today.
I’m just absolutely torn between V6 and V4 grey day!
imma hold out till these go on sale, if it does then this will be me first v6. Inflation making them prices go crazy lately
The prices on these will only be going up unfortunately. They’re limited
@@paulisland8429 they r still available everywhere where i live
Just picked these ups hope I’m not late to the party
What size laces ?
also 🔥
People are so late to this NB craze. Been wearing NBs in DC since the late 80s
Or..maybe they've been on NB for decades too, and are on the new wave too, as you seem to be since you're here too😂
stfu
This time, I prefer V6 > V4!
V6⚡️
Copped 15% off at AMM!
To me the addition of the blue and cream makes it so much better than the original grey V6
As for fit v4 vs. V6 which feels better Sean? I prefer the look of v4s vs. V6.
V6 fit a bit longer and a touch more
narrow, so V4 fit my foot a bit better but both were good
@@SeanGo thx Sean I'll go with v4.
Why would they not have cream laces if the official nb pics are with cream laces??? That was one of the biggest reasons for my purchase.
Marketing has been going for an “aged” aesthetic for their official pictures and what not when it comes to the MADE collection unfortunately
This colourways give me georgetown vibe
How long did it take before the pinching near the toe area disappeared? I recently tried a pair of 990v6 and I also felt pinching in the exact spot, which deterred me from buying a pair.
Probably like 2 days of wearing them for 6-8 hours a day
You’re right about the v4. The hairy suede was not a good look.
How is the Standard size of the V6 compared with the V4 or the V5. I'm size 9 on the V4/V5. I'm buying it online.
How everything turn out with sizing? I'm sticking with my tts on a pair for next week
@@jayredz7807 I bought the V6 size 9 and it is indeed longer but also narrower by a bit compared to the previous V's
I’m sooo torn someone help
Please. Classic grey colorway or these? Don’t know what one to buy for first v6???
These
I realized something…the latest v6 releases are made unisex whereas the previous core grey and black come in men/women sizes.
👍
Just to confirm.. does everyone else go half a size down in the V3 like Sean does? Because I couldn’t imagine doing that
Nah I go TTS, but 98% of his sizing advices are spot on for me
TTS
TTS here (v3,v5,v6)
No I go true to size.
Half down for me. Onpoint
I only can get one v4 or v6?
what’s ur heart telling you
@@SeanGo I’ll go with the v6 🔥
V6 for sure
Theyre gonna have like 100 different colorway of this model with half being collabs. This is a basic sneaker considering all that.
I hate cream laces on sneakers anyways. Better that they’re just white
First colorway of the v6 I actually liked! Had to cop 🤌🏾
Got a pair of this last november for 50% off. So ez
