            Just so we have something, well, less atrocious, here's the NB x W+H collabs I posted earlier…

            Truthfully, I like my black 576s more... Nonetheless: they're wild!..

            Btw: these are mine (made in England):

                We just have fundamentally different tastes, lol! I wouldn't wear those New Balances, even if my grandmother gave them to me for Christmas

                      Aesthetics aside, I wear NB because they offer decent arch support and last forever. I have a pair of Adidas zx500's and those thing kill my feet and they developed holes pretty fast.

                        I also like NB and PF Flyers (NB owns PF Flyers). I have narrow feet and they work well for me.

                          No tote compatibility, those black ones come free with the tartan shopping trolley. They are by far the pick of the bunch (in terms of their ability to convey aesthetic displeasure).

                          They look like something from the back page classified ads of newspapers and magazines, along with the hair clippers for family AND pets and the beige elasticated waist slacks (up to size 60"!).

                          EDIT: the natural/light pair aren't too bad though.

                            Maybe my slightly less unpopular opinion; I do not think NB sneakers look good in general either.

                              I've never owned a proper pair of NB's, even when they used to be 2 pairs for $79 at Footaction.
                              I do have 2 pairs of the NB minimus shoes, for ACTUAL running…..

                                A lot of them are ugly… Of course mine aren't... Mine are completely awesome to the max...

                                  that is some serious effort.. my dog just struts in like a princess..

                                      Totally with you on this.  when/why the hell did NB's become "cool" again?!!  I think 99% of them are ugly, although I will say that if they are that comfortable then that does go a long way and will maybe grant someone a free pass for wearing them.

                                        Ok, I'll attempt to take some of the pressure off of @UnTucked here….

                                        For the most part...I don't like Indigo denim shirts...at all.  I also can't really stand the look of an indigo denim shirt paired with blue jeans...yes the Canadian Tux.

                                        I will await the throwing of the stones.

                                            When were NB cool the first time?  Happily, I must have missed that era.  They're consistently the worst looking athletic shoes of any major brand.

                                            Many years ago, when I sold shoes, I found that appearance and comfort were inversely proportionate, so when customers asked my opinion on a hideous shoe's appearance, my standard response was, "they're very comfortable."

                                            Those Feits must feel like getting a foot massage from angels.
