The New Balance 996 women’s model (W9962Y1) is a classic sneaker that balances a timeless vibe with comfortable wear. It doesn’t feel overly bulky, yet offers good stability at your feet—making it versatile for everyday use as well as outings.
The 996’s strength lies in its design that’s rooted in 1990s running elements, while still being easy to style “in a more polished direction.” The women’s W model is built to match women’s feet, so you can put them on with minimal discomfort right from the start.
On Yahoo, it’s priced at ¥11,682 (10% off, original ¥12,980). Review ratings are also fairly high (5/5, 4 reviews), so for anyone who wants to try the classic 996 first, this is a “hard-to-miss” buying moment.
