Unpopular opinions
-
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.

Those would go great with a tote bag
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...

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.

In the words of Phife: "I sport new balance sneakers to avoid a narrow path. mess around with this you catch a size eight up your @ss. I never half step cause I'm not a half stepper…"
The arch support and the varied widths and the made in UK, all solid justifications for NB, at least back in the day. The 992 and the 576 variations were useful

Lol. I wear NB 574's for their comfort not necessarily their looks. Having worn other brands like Puma, Converse and Adidas I can say NB can take a beating and not mess up my feet at the same time.

Good point, they never were. Should have left out the "again".
