            • Q:

              What is the difference between NB993GL and NB990GL? I have had excellent experience wearing both the NB992GL and now the NB993GL. I'm planning to buy another pair of NB993GL but am a little confused if I should move up to its replacement - the new NB990GL. Please advise.

                Other than color and a little bit of design, there is nothing really different between these two models of shoes.

                A:

                The 990 uses some slightly different technologies in the midsole and the upper styling is slightly different, but the shoes are very similar with regards to fit and function. The 993 has been discontinued and the 990 is the replacement, so the 993 will eventually phase out. If you were comfortable in the 993, you should not have any problems with the feel and fit of the 990, but everyone's foot is different so make sure you take the time to try the 990 on the carpet to make sure that it feels OK before taking it outside.

            • About New Balance
            New Balance has grown to be one of the largest manufacturers of running shoes and they've done this without expensive advertising campaigns. New Balance knows that there is no better press than positive word-of-mouth. New Balance began as an arch support company, but in 1960, they designed the first running shoe with a ripple sole and the first running shoe that came in varying widths. It didn't take long before New Balance running shoes were used by college track teams all over the country. Today, New Balance makes their shoes available in more widths than almost any other company and that means that there's a New Balance that can fit nearly any foot. Although they started by making running shoes, New Balance tennis shoes are an industry staple and are loved by recreational and serious players. New Balance also makes fine running and tennis apparel, as well as a variety of socks and other sporting accessories.
