One of the most beautiful NB models, and they’re made in the USA. Well worth the money!

comfortable

The shoes fit true to size and have good cushioning, so they’re very comfortable to wear. They make my feet look smaller and the slight heel gives me a bit of extra height.

USA Classic

Great shoe made in USA. Get so many compliments. Looks great with shorts and khakis. A classic for sure. Comfy and plenty of room in the toe box. I wear these everywhere, work, and church. True to size.

This shoe runs BIG

I ordered a women's 8 and it did not fit like that at all. It was huge. Now I have to return and be out the $10 when I would just like to exchange.

Very Dissapointed!

I was very disappointed. The front lip peeled off the front of both shoes within the first 2 weeks. After a few months the heel area wore through the fabric from the inside. The toe box does not offer the same protection as the 990v6. I do like the sole of the 998 as it is flat and it does not pick up mud like the 990v6. I will not buy these again as they only lasted about 3 months of normal wear. When I am on a multi month trip, I will stick with the 990s as they are very supportive and durable.

OK With a Warning

Fine shopping experience, received quickly in good condition. Unfortunately, NB changed their fit/sizing vs. same model from several years ago and I had to return these. The “unisex” version has a narrower toe than my old ones, which I use for cross training.
