Nobody makes plain grey runners look as cool as new balance does. 👍
Love every single NB Grey review! Great job on this one!
Underrated channel. Keep up the good work
Great sneaker. Love your videos. Almost asmr for shoe unboxing
Clean! Keep up the great content 💯
I own three pairs of 996's and I'm very happy with them. I'm always looking for the next 996 color variation that I don't have yet. Currently looking at the NB M670 ORC (Original Runner's Club), which look really cool.! Thanks for posting!
Good stuff as usual!
Dope video. I was able to find a pair on eBay. I’m excited to try out the 996 model. I went with my made in USA size on this pair. Hoping for a snug one to one fit that will break in over time.
I just ordered some nimbus cloud 574's but I really want a pair of these now
Definitely getting some
Damn!! What are those!! I love that colorway!!
I also pick a half size up in others brands, but what i like of NBs is that i can order the same size on most of their models, something that i cant do with other shoes like adidas, nike, saucony, asics, etc, i have to try them on necessarily in one store to knowing im choosing the indicated size
Ik I’m late but this video deserves more love. Good shit dude
Appreciate you bro 🤝
I have a pair of black 996. I also have a couple of pairs of 576 made in the UK. I normally wear Adidas but the made in the UK and Made in the USA New Balance are the best made trainers I own by a long way. Getting some grey 996 very soon
Didn’t have a 996, just bought the M996DOL. Cool video dude!
Love ‘em!🔥
im the same with sizing, im stuck between 10.5-11 but with NB 10.5 is just perfect. 10.5 in other brands is a snug fit for me and 11 is always too big with death spaces in weird places in the shoe. 10.5 in NB is just perfect, fits me like a 10.75 lol
Good video!!
I have these in light blue but the grey with white laces looks better if I'm being honest. They're just a well put together beautiful trainers. 👌 👍
I need to get new laces for my 996's, but can't find which ones this sneaker originally came with... do you know which laces those would be? And, thank you so much for the great video!
You going to pick up another pair this Friday? Finally have a chance to grab a new pair of these and I, for one, am stoked
3:57 of course i never gave it a look, back in the 2000s middle and High school days the media trained us to think these were lame af and if you were caught wearing them, you were BURIED by your classmates. It didn't help that these were sold at Walmart and New Balance was go to sneakers for Dads or Grandpas around the US.
Very nice review and the historical references. Thank you for this very informative video. I have been trying to get away from the not so comfortable trainers like Veja and Vans (trendy) or the overly popularized trainers like Nike and Adidas...so New Balance it is. They are comfortable, a US brand, and stylish. Also, I have to agree with the others that your editing and video filming is impeccable.
Appreciate the great feedback! Hope you’re able to find a nice pair for yourself 🤞
@@StuffDylanLikes Thanks! I was going to go with either the ladies X-70 or the 720, but after your review I am thinking about the 996 now. Just trying to read up on it to see what the difference are. Thanks!
New balance are loved everywhere. 👍 🇬🇧
Bought a pair 10 years ago, wore them almost exclusively and it lasted and felt amazing till the end - I would have kept them, but they were so beat up my wife made me give them up 😂 ordering a new pair tomorrow. Truly the GOAT shoes.
I didn’t like the 996 before but this one, it’s a winner! Will you be doing a 990v5?
I had a pair every year for 10 years straight. I have a pair that i had for 11 years. Have the 30th anniversary pair as well. These are the lady killers, women love this shoe.
Of course women like these, they look like a man's sneaker not a high school kid's Air Jordan .
Grey 574 nice too good video. 👍
Been wearing NB since 88'....I can't find these anymore ? Where did you find them?
I have these, and kind of worn them out.
Thought of getting another pair but ended up getting a 993 gray white instead :)
This was my first NB pair, and they are amazing. Eye catching, received lots of compliments, and extremely comfortable. Just dont use them for everything like I did 😂
I was never into shoes and never owned a pricey pair. I used these for working out, and even hiking... I learned my lesson for sure and wont do the same with my 993s.
So you shouldn't use these for the gym? I'm considering a NB pair for gym and work, but not sure if it's a good idea now.
@@tuvu8394 no no these are lifestyle shoes and are expensive. I wouldnt wear expensive shoes at gym or for exercises.
@@giantqtipz6577 Do you have any recommendations on workout shoes? I heard the ultra boost is very comfy but they're almost $250 a pair at my place =(
997, 577, 998, 1400, 1300, 996, 992. In that order. Colorblocking takes priority over silhouette for me though.
absolute beauties
Hello :) I’m new to new balance shoes but I did try these 996’s on today at REI but since these are so hard to find on sale do you feel like any of the other new balances have the same comfort as the 996? I also tried on the 574’s and I felt like they were stiff and cheap feeling not much conformity to the foot. What other styles can you recommend for all day wear?
No. There is nothing like 996s unless you find japanese 1700s
Debating the grey 996 or 993. Similar prices and I’m really into my beige 992s
can't go wrong with either!
Those are top 10 new nance models especially if u grew up in the 80s and 90s
Hi please i would like to know is your 574 in size 9.5 too?
Yes!
DMV classics
i just bought the grey 574s but not i want these
Can these be worn for strength training?
That's what they were designed for 😂
damn bro your editing is sexy
I assume the DSW are not “made in USA”?
Unless it is marked as Made in USA, it likely will not be.
u didnt show the outsole
Good point
Whaaaaaattttt???!!!! 170 dollars??!! I bought mine for 30€ last 2 years ago here in Finland. Just bought it on a Christmas sale at the mall. Last size 41. 😀
