Was here to say the same thing. They look awesome when everything else is on the dark spectrum and these pop

[jerkules]

God knows why these were only £50 reduced from £200
Love the pink laces, makes me want strawberry ice cream

[AdamJ]

@jerkules you're a brave man with those cuffs on white sneaks! My white new balance now have indigo tongues

[SKT]

@jerkules that’s a steal…plus they’re cool. Adam’s right though, they may end up purple when the crocking is said and done

[jerkules]

@AdamJ @SKT i personally love indigo crocking! Weirdly enough my cream 990v6 pair have practically zero crocking, and have stayed looking pretty clean somehow. I suspect it’ll be harder to keep the shaggy suede quite as clean , but for 75% off I don’t mind too much

[AdamJ]

@jerkules yeah I hear you. I am full of shit because I often tell people who worry about crocking on their tops "embrace the wabi sabi" meanwhile I fret over my trainers

[SKT]

@jerkules oh yeah I’m the same. Can’t be in the indigo game unless you love some crocking.

[Matt]

I don’t love it but I accept it and don’t get stressed over it. I’m really considering a pair of these except I really don’t want to pay $400…

[Matt]

Here’s the cheaper alternative by half…

[louisbosco]

@Matt have the remade it?? swore it was half the price 6/7 years ago..

[SKT]

@Matt i like both

[Matt]

@louisbosco I’ve only found one in my size on eBay.

[Matt]

@SKT I do too but the red sole on the RW version is pretty badass.

[AdamJ]

IH x NB collab in the 997 or 2002 sounds like a plan

[SKT]

@AdamJ yeeeessss. @Matt red sole is very cool

[Matt]

A NBXIH would be an immediate buy for me regardless of cost. Actually it would need to come in duck, denim, wabash and hickory stripe

[louisbosco]

@Matt just looked up old emails and remembered I paid 250usd for it back in 2019.. and googled it now and the prices currently are insane!!

[Matt]

Yeah, crazy.

[jerkules]

@Matt yeah I prefer the RW pair, but not twice as much. The 992s are very cool.
