Great looking shoe!
As a huge fan of the CM996 and MS997 (997 Sport), this is a great shoe. Unfortunately, both of those models have been discontinued. The CM996 lives on overseas, while the 997 Sport has been discontinued since around 2021. I'm glad I made the decision to buy this model as an alternative. It is very comfortable with supportive cushioning, and like the other two models it is very stylish. It also seems like it will be very durable. I hope New Balance keeps this model around, and brings back the CM996 and MS997!

New shoes. Disappointed.
They rub on the back of my ankle causing blisters through a sock

Narrow on toes
I have size US10 for 993, 2002R and it fits well. However for this one US10, bit tight on toes. Recommend to half size up

Wanted to love them
Runs small. Very uncomfortable, tight toe box. Return!

Not my fave
I like the look of these a lot. They are fairly comfortable but this style is a bit fly for me. Only worn a couple of times and the footbed already feels like it’s compressing. They are fine but not my faves.
