I am very sensitive to comfortable shoes, as well as I tend to ruin them faster than an average consumer (I can judge by my male relatives who usually buy same stuff)

Bought a pair a year ago (it's the same as 991). This one was the best thing that ever had been on my feet. Simply the best. Moreover, it had been quite a while for now that I am wearing them almost every day, and they look and feel like new. Truly addicted.

Now buying another two for my dad and myself, because I am afraid the guys at New Balance like in any other brand will be tempted to change something in the product and I will not like it :)
