@SKT for how long..

2002 and 990 feel totally different to me. I much prefer the 990. My 2002s feel much harder under foot. My 2002s also give a bit of knee and foot pain if I’m walking around on concrete all day. The 990s I can wear all day every day.

We have a local sneaker shop that’s gotten pretty big with locations all over the US called Downtown Locker Room or DTLR. I learned yesterday that they have some collab 1906s that I now need. Katie’s out of town so I may take an e scooter down to check them out today…

@Matt, I vote for the first one…

[Matt]

I was the thinking more along the he lines of… both.

[Matt]

Overall, the first pair for sure. But I can’t get that yellow and red N out of my head so I gots to have em both.

This is the way

IH-634 and 660v6 = all day comfort.

[Matt]

@AdamJ these are great!

[SKT]

@Matt oh I really like those

[AdamJ]

@Matt no way! Been wearing my blue ones all week. So comfy

[Matt]

These are fucking amazing. Anyone interested in the 1906 I suggest going up .5. I have another pair in my normal NB size and these feel much better.

@Matt those are bold in the best way

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

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.
