Nice pair and great mesh. Nice solid period for the 991v1 giving way to the 991 v2

NB 991 is a really great sneaker. Obviously the UK factory can’t pump out 991v2 and 991v1 at once, so it’s better to put the 991 on ice for a while than send it out to China to be made or something. The 991 has its quirks but once broken in, all-day comfort is fantastic in these. The fact that I managed to buy the 991 in 6 different colorways from Winners and Marshalls in Canada for $99.99 each over the past year or so (they still have some right now!) is a sign that they might be less popular in the hypebeast world but I truly don’t mind at all! Incredible shoes for the price!

I agree with your assessment. Did the 991 V2 destroy the allure of the V1? I’m thinking yes!

The 991 20th anniversary pair was my first new balance. Its the shoe that made me fall in love with NB. Still dig v1 over v2

Hey Sean, are you going to review the new 2002R "Steel Blue"?

@Fialectro 8 ай бұрын

I want an espresso color way on the V2 and a restock of the blues 😅

French Roast vibes without the leather. Kind of a letdown for a finale. My favorite 991 is the Majolica Blue.

I have a wide 10.5 foot and never bought a new balance show before. Are these roomy enough to go with a 10.5 or should i stay buying size 11?

@chaos3939 7 ай бұрын

As a fellow wide-footer, I would suggest size 11. I wear 10.5 as well, the 990v series I go true-2-size. Other models I go half a size up.

Great Video as always. However, not a shoe for me given my wide foot.

Sean, would you say that 990v3s and 990v4s fit the same? …more or less?

I am hopelessly addicted to the 991, so when I found a pair of these (with a discount), I bought them immediately. But I guess that the Finale version isn't any better or more luxurious than the other 991, so I think that the comments on craftsmanship and materials is not far off. But oddly enough the different 991 versions/colorways through they years have varied a lot regarding especially breathability and general comfort. This also goes for sizing; in some 991 models I use 9 1/2, in others I use 10. I have just tried a set of 991 v2, and I must say that my immediate reaction was disappointment. They look like 991, but the shape of the sole feels very different, giving the v2 a more "rolling" sensation where the 991 v1 is more flat. I won't say that the v2 is worse that the v1, it is just a very different sensation when walking. It feels more like the 990 (US) versions, which I really dislike for its sole curvature. So if you like the 991 v1, I really advise you to try the v2 before buying.I will probably have to make peace with the v2, but for now I will stick to the v1.

Sorry to see you didn't like this one, but I understand feeling underwhelmed this (might) be the end for the 991. It deserved a better send-off, but at least we have 991v2.
