New Balance Men's MR890 Running Shoe for $39.99 + $1 shipping

i bought a pair the last time they had this kind of deal. grey, white & neon green)

ive never owned a pair of NB, but boy are those sneakers comfortable.

i dont run, but i bought them to wear on the field as i coach my kids tackle football team.
the basketball sneakers were making my back hurt, the NB's are light and have great support.

if the colors were better than whats being offered now, id buy another pair for 39.99

Quote from Damocles : dang, not sure if i should order a 12 or 12.5. no real way of returning, right? i don't own any NB to compare.

Yes, they accept returns if you buy the wrong size. No exchanges but you can get a refund.

in for a 12.

they have a return policy, but return shipping at my own cost (as opposed to in-store) presumably takes quite a bite out of the savings.

Awesome deal! I picked up a couple pair of shorts for additional motivation to get out and run with the additional 35% off. Perfect time for summer too.

I've been running pretty regularly. Figured I'd reward myself with a good pair.

Quote from tsanders02 : I have this shoe and it's one of the best ever!!! Very Comfy for running or going to the store. Yes New Balance still makes shoes in the USA. No one else does,,,,,,,,,,,, Thank You New Balance for keeping jobs here in the Unite States. Other companies should follow New Balance's lead.....

Reps for you. But that isn't quite right. New Balance is the only company that still makes SNEAKERS in the U.S.

Lots of companies make very high quality shoes in the USA. (Danner for example.)

I'm lucky when it comes to New Balance. I live not far from the REAL factory outlet- at the factory in Lawrence, Massachusetts. I can get the high-end NB shoes right at outlet. Picture a huge factory floor converted to retail- New Balance Made in USA shoes at outlet prices. And the factory is upstairs.

I don't buy crappy, fall-apart, hurt-your-feet shoes from China. Period.

Quote from aroot : Are these shoes still made in USA?

That is a very, very smart question.

One way to find a lot of Made in USA New Balance products is to go to their website and just type "USA" in the search box. It gives you pages of great products. (Not just shoes believe it or not. They made stuff like underwear and shoelaces in America too.)

Can anyone who has these comment on the color? Is the red bright or subtle? Thanks!

Quote from kicker618 : agreed ... that stinks

Standard D is Wide size, look at the sizing chart.

I got in on this deal last time. The 890s are the best running shoe I've ever owned.

Quote from onnig : Standard D is Wide size, look at the sizing chart.

2E is wide for Men's shoes. New Balance are generally narrow. Many will be uncomfortable in D. Make sure you fit New Balance's version of D beforehand.

You're right I was looking at the women's sizing chart.

Don't think so. Here's a list of the Made in USA models:
