    Also, the 991v2 is just better looking and more comfortable.

      @Megatron1505 Appreciate the insight and sad to hear about the quality issues on the v6, rubber falling off is alarming. Sounds like that one will be a pass

          Not a very sexy purchase but got a new pair of 860’s for walking. Super comfortable. @Matt aren’t you an 860 man?

            Yup. I like a stability shoe as I need the hard support in the middle. Love the 860. Switched to Hoka for the forefoot rocker since I now have arthritis in my big toe but I’m not sure it’s worth it. Plan on switching back.

              @Matt I had the v13 and now these v14’s and love em both. The v14 feels just a little tighter but not enough to size up. New Balance has upped their running shoe game

                For sure. My last pair was wide and they felt great. That could solve your tight issue. I don’t usually go wide but when she measured my foot at the running store she said I was right over the edge. Nice that NB has lots of wide options.

                    I dipped these 998s in the indigo vat last weekend I think about five times. I did these on a whim and they actually turned out to be the prize of the whole weekend. I'm really happy with how these turned out. They were grey and pale yellow with some blue in a few spots. I love how indigo blue some of the areas turned, especially the upper heel area. Wow that blue is bright! What do you all think?

                      those are pretty rad @Oaktavia
                      I think you also just saved yourself 600$ or whatever for the new ultra limited dip dyed indigo 1500's they're going to release soon
                      love how those shoe lace ends trapped the dye too

                          @Oaktavia really really cool. It will be fun to see how the dye evolves too. Keep us posted

                              @GardenState @SKT @pechelman I just am now seeing these replies, I had this topic on "ignore". I think I went Ignore Happy a while ago and ended up doing so on too many topics.

                              This pair shrunk after dying them 😭 they scrunch my toes now when I put them on. Even after wearing around and loosing the laces up. Huge bummer...but I love how they turned out.

                                no worries @Oaktavia
                                Bummer they shrunk. What size were they originally and how much length did they loose? Still surprised it lost any length with it all being mounted on rubber/foam sole that's stable.

                                  @pechelman they are/were size 12, the width is what has shrunk, my little toes no longer have the room they once had.

                                    ah, interesting. I wonder if you crammed in a shoe tree with a bit of something wrapped around the tight spot and then sprayed it locally to get it a bit wet if you could stretch them back out

                                        @Oaktavia I completely forgot about this as well. Now I'm back to looking for interesting New Balances to buy. The Bembury ones are nice but there are some others on my radar too

                                          @GardenState I have to admit I love checking every now and then for new NBs. I am partial to the made in USA or UK line. I want a pair of all black ones.
