Thanks man! I’ll reach out soon and we can work out a plan.

Took out the latest 1300JP's for the day. Might be one of my favorite NB's in the collection!

@Matt that’s so funny and so truejust add a Limited Edition label and I can’t live without.

[Matt]

It works every time. I’m such a sucker.

Picked these up a few years ago and really love the “denim-like” color way. Made in UK NB 670 “Bluesman”.

[Matt]

I was looking at these this morning. I have the v5 and love them…

[SKT]

Yeah those are killer. Do you hike in the v5’s some? Tread looks good

[Matt]

I did some whilst on the road but did most of my hard hiking in the North Face ones I have. I forget the model. They have a vibram sole and a rubber toe guard which is nice. The new version comes in a GorTex model as well. I like them a lot. I run in NB also. they really do make nice working shoes, not just street shoes.

[SKT]

I’m a fan for sure. Been wearing these a lot lately too. Recent 990v1

[Matt]

Love that cream color.

[SKT]

Same and they really haven’t picked up too much indigo even when I wear em with the UHR’s.

[Matt]

I noticed that. I tend to shy away from lighter colors because of that.

[Matt]

@SKT if I were going to get new hikers it would probably be these…

[SKT]

Oh those are nice.

[Matt]

Straight fire…

[Matt]

My made in USA 1400s from J Crew. Maybe 15ish years old?

[Twistlock]

Made in UK 770, around 6 years old

[SKT]

@Matt like these a lot. Is that dark gray?

[Matt]

Navy with light grey. They came in a few colors.

Stumbled upon these Made In USA 990v1 for a decent price:

Question is: are these awesome, or am I just convincing myself they’re awesome because they’re at a reduced price (like 33% off)?
