I own a pair of 997s, 998s, and 1500s because I love the look and quality of them. I want to buy another model of the 990s-999s but not sure which one to get. Out off all the 990 series which one is the comfortablest out of all of them?

for straight comfort? 993. V4 is a close 2nd

The spots come from uneven drying. The only way I know of fixing it are to dampen the suede and let it dry at the same rate. But try at your own risk, as dyed suede will most likely darken/bleed with water.



The step where they take the brush and press it into the towel to get the most water off is key. You want to use as little water as possible, just enough to get a little foam. Then the next crucial step is to wipe the shoes down as quickly as possible with a dry towel with the twist technique.

After that getting the nap back will be the hard part. You can get it looking good but rarely back to the original softness and texture.


You could also find a local shoe repair shop, they should have the necessary tools to clean suede. Good luck!

Wow I wish I asked you before I did this. And I really wish Jason Markk's custoner service could provide useful advice like this. They never reply me even i tried email and facebook

Then I have to agree with feelme up there...993 is where it’s at...For my foot it’s the most comfortable 99x model...

I’ve only worn 991.5 I’m not familiar with comfort of 991. If I can find NGG on sale then I will know lol.

For me 991 falls right behind the 993 for comfort...The v3’s, v4’s, and 992’s I can take or leave...That’s based purely on comfort though...

Aesthetically 991 tops them all...

Pretty sure it's the only pair that I legitimately have to double-knot so they don't look completely crazy

Same here. Double knot is always necessary.

And what’s weird is if you look at some of the product shots, the laces look almost too short.
