Similar to the 574S, this was a relatively new model from New Balance at the time. It also drew inspiration from heritage models. I went with the New Balance X-90 Cyclone/Marblehead as they reminded me of a classic New Balance colorway.

I don’t have many New Balances but at one time I had tons of pairs! I sold a bulk of them but I kept plenty of pairs around. The quality on the Made In the USA pairs is rarely surpassed by anything I have seen!

Eventually, I slowed down on pickups and have started putting together articles of a different nature. These days, I try to answer questions people have either asked me directly, or that I see asked often online about New Balance.
New Balance 990v4 Jupiter / Orange Review
I’ve gotten turned around on this shoe. I used to not be a fan of the toebox shape, but these New Balance 990v4 Jupiter / Orange have really grown on me! These get their name from the colorway.

The New Balance 990CER Heritage takes a look back to when the model was first released in 1982. There are several in the 990 series and they all have their strong points. Eventually the line would incorporate the recognizable toebox paneling later versions are known for, but this release is much more straightforward.

I’ve reviewed this model before, but not in depth. The New Balance 998 came out in the late 80s and is known for material quality throughout its various releases and wide-foot friendly comfort.

I’ve reviewed a couple of the classic pairs of this model before. These New Balance 574 Sport Suede in Olive definitely improve upon those pairs.

Being a musician, I can appreciate artistry, especially modern and street art. Ron English (of POPaganda fame) lends a hand in the design of these New Balance 247 Villa The Collective, the first new collab between NB and Sneaker Villa.
