Aime's also kinda look like NB1 with better insoles.

 

[jamesandstl]

a few 990s down to $100 on kicksusa
and vodka / caviar 1500s for $100 on Ubiq

They also take an extra $25 off of some of them. The “Norrh Sea” v4 is $75, very tempting. I’m really trying to do better with purchases and not just buy because it’s a great price........but this is very tempting

 

[moshepark]

The V4 King tells me that these are an NB1 with custom insoles and packaging which is why they needed Ronnie to hype it. I believe him.

 

[feelmeguilty]

I mean, at least one of the pairs looks like an NB1...mismatched to sell more pairs is super gimmicky

 

[vidiviciun]

Seems like moshepark predictions are coming to flourishing of the bastardization of the 997. Those Bodega joints are looking TUFF tho (I'm a sucker for nappy suede).​

 

[fudatskee]

straight pass on these NB1 gimmicks

 

[remy]

Maybe this means will see a 998 legit collab comeback?

The floor is lava, cause my feet’s on fire. Bonus photo from my mourning commute

the Aime teaser pics look like red plastic on the side and not red suede, but who really knows
also Ronnie is apparently a business partner with Aime and is invested in the brand itself

I've told this story to a few ppl but, a couple of yrs ago, Ronnie was giving away some Kith stuff on his IG page and picking a 'random' winner from those who commented on that post. The random winner ended up being Teddy Santis who founded Aime and was already a friend...who had posted prior about getting seeded Kith shoes already. Called Ronnie on it and got the BLOCK...lmao. WEEEEEEAK

Hopefully, Todd Synder will prosper. I really need J. Crew to pump out a "Ever-Lasting Gobstopper" 998 collab... ​

Is this nb1? It doesn't look like nb1. Custom paper,special insole...and custom lacecap

The NB1 effect

1/ 6 collabs or 1 / 6 pointless cause no one will ever get them?

Most definitely digging these...

 

[getitaway]

Yeah idk how I feel about wearing mismatched shoes, but the color ways look decent and the presentation looks really nice. Ultimately, i will probably pass though.

Those 43einhalb 1500 though.... mmmmmffff

 

[threegeees]

For the 43einhalb's, what's 1 of 6 all about tho?

 

[nonheinous]

Peep what looks like an angelus bottle in one of the pics. I’m guessing it might be another AFEW-style custom situation.

 

[b42l8t]

It's pair created during a trip to flimby of 43einhalb team with winners of a contest.
So made in flimby.

And again, no chance to get them ... sadness

 

[threegeees]

So dumb..

 

[squizzy3000]

Can someone do a 997 render of those 1500? Would probably look great on a 997 as well.
