Thank you for viewing. This is a USA-made model of the New Balance classic 996. I purchased it at an authorized retailer in the United States. There are some scratches from wear, but there are no tears in the heels, and the soles still have plenty of life left, so they are still in wearable condition. There is no box. Currently in Japan, the more affordable Asian-made CM996 is the mainstream 996, but I think the New Balance 900 series is still special when it's made in the USA. You can wear them more comfortably if you replace the insoles. Feel free to ask any questions or request additional photos in the comments.
