Wonderful shoes!!! August 3, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
These are some of the most comfortable shoes I own. I have trouble finding good tennis shoes due to my arch. I own a very large collection of Dansko's for that reason. I will buy the 992's again, maybe in another color. :) True to size. Worth the money!!
Super Running/Walking Shoes July 22, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought my first two pair of the New Balance W992 Running Shoes in 2007 from Nordstroms. The shoes were comfortable and offered the support that my feet need. So after wearing out the first two pair, I returned to Nordstroms to purchase two more pair. When I discovered that they did not have this model available anymore, I found them available at Amazon.com. Happy ending!
Upgrade from 991 June 30, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This shoe is popular for good reasons. It looks good. It is available in a broad range of sizes and widths. It is a good running shoe. Finally, I can get it in black in my size, which is 10AA. The 991 only had gray and white in my size. The 992 runs true to size, also, which is nice. You had to size up for the 991. New Balance builds on (at least) 2 running shoe lasts, and this is from the SL-1 last. If you have favorite shoes, find out which last they are based on and buy more off that last. I walk/jog on hilly sidewalks and these keep my legs alive. The prevention of over-pronation is important when I run down hills with my dog. If I don't have these on, I have learned that my old legs get a very sore tendon behind my knee. If your old favorites are the 991, now is the time to upgrade.

This is very well built shoe. Very supportive. I am a little disappointed in the cush appeal though. I have an old pair of NB-803s that are still more cushy than the 992s. But over all a pretty good shoe. If I would ever buy another pair of 992s? My answer would have to be NO. I will look for a better replacement of my old 803s. I use them to work in on cement floors all day and I need more cush.
I buy a pair of these every year! January 12, 2008 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I am a little lazy about fashion, so it helps that I love these shoes so much that they're the only shoes I wear. I have probably gone through 6 pairs of these (first the 991s, and now the 992s now that the 991s have been fazed out). It takes a few walks to break them in. They feel tight around the ankles and a little high at the heel. But once they're broken in, they are extremely comfortable. And I love the neutral color.
I do moderate walking 6 times a week in these and wear them for everything else. Despite all that usage, they last at least a year. I'm kind of in a routine now where I wear the old ones for exercise and the new ones as my regular shoes. (Each pair is in use for 2 years!) I am a big nerd, but I love these shoes and it works. They are pricey. Never buy them at the NB store or at the mall. The best deals are online. Amazon is great!
