Those are M992 (classic silhouette) with a JCrew-designed colorway. They're really nice in person however they fit big on me - I need a sz 7.5. Long story how I ended up with 2 pairs of these LOL
I have a pair of these. J Crew did a great job with them.

990v3 silhouette is so good. The color for this model (M990TO3) is billed as “grey with blue,” but these are definitely more olive drab, navy, and tan. These offer similar comfort to my 990v5s and are more comfortable than my 991s. Definitely better in person than the images.

Excellent @Darkside . I had these eyed up. Do you know how sizing compares to the 990v1's?

The best for comfort. For looks, I personally prefer the more vintage looks of the 990v1. My son loves the V3 and 991 though.

Currently wearing these

Comfortable, although I had to size up like two sizes, and they are the largest pair of shoes I've ever worn. But I like that they don't feel (to me, at least) like dad sneakers, which I find the majority of New Balance sneakers end up looking very bulky, where I don't know how I'd wear them. The Joachim brothers make it look so easy.
