New Balance
-
went shoe shopping today - not working for adidas anymore allows me to look at other sneaker brands with different eyes.
tried on NB MR890RW and MR890RG - seriously over the top, but entertaining. hell, I might go back and buy MR890RG in a weak moment…
In the end I went the safe route with NB 576
(in school we used to say that the "N" stands for "Nazi" because the cheaper models were kind of popular with some neo-nazi's.)

I'm a big fan of these, not as bulky:

Little NB factoid for everyone who was not aware: The model number of each NB corresponds to the price of retail. 1500 = $150.00, 574 = $57.40 or $58, etc.

no explaining this one. the beige color way with that pop of blue looks dope. they remind me of the first airmax crepe with the hemp sides. would look really good with worn in jeans. can see the old folks thing cause you know they are NB. . .but i'm closer to the old folks then the young whipper snappers

did you went for these mickey?
just came across these on norsestore.com:
M577NG
and according to Lando´s post from a few months ago, they actually should be ~58$…hence the 577 in the name. could this be true?

A friend asked me to find a ton Made in USA products for a possible store he might be opening. These were the only sneakers that I could think of. Anyways, I actually tried on a few pairs yesterday and really liked them. I'm usually a Vans guy in the summer but I might add some of these in. Which pairs should be my first? I'm not into any of the loud colorways though… more into the classic ones. I'm a sz9 but possible 8.5 if they're wide. I'm gonna go to the New Balance store in the city to get properly fit since they do make wide sizes.
