      @Maynard:

      Most New Balance shoes are OK, it's just those denim ones that are as ugly as sin as far as I'm concerned.

      I definitely agree. Some of the varieties are over $300 a pair. This is way too much imho.
      @Anesthetist:

      I like them Mr Filthy. How do they look with dark denim though?

      @Anesthetist  I took a shot with 3 different pairs of IH denim in various stages of evolution. The color is virtually identical to a raw pair of IH 25 oz denim and similar to the deepest tones of 18 oz. IH denim.

      Texturally, it is much different to a pair of IH, since the Cone Mills denim is probably only a 8 oz. denim, compared to 25 oz. Much similar to a chambray material thickness.

      On The far right is a heavily worn and washed IH 25 oz. pair that the color does not match at all. I assume the Cone denim will evolve since it is indigo dyed denim.

        I forgot to add, that they do have a 'washed' light blue denim as well of you have faded jeans you want to match.

          Cool, i think they would contrast nicely with some worn in pairs or ducks as well. Be sure to update us on the progress and thanks for the pics and review.

                    I ordered a pair of 998 in black, made in USA, hope I will like em 🙂 my feet hurt too much in vans and I needed a light sneaker alternative. And I made a good deal = 20% off.

                        Thanks, they are a pretty simple CW, looking forward to get em.

                              My usual EU42,5 fits great!!! But they are a US9, and my other sneaker, mostly Vans, are US9.5, so I sized down my US size but not my EU size 🙂
