Legit question here, what's the consensus on the 327? I feel like I have seen more and more of them recently, but they seem to not exist in this thread. I've been eyeing a few color ways that I liked but they seem narrow af. I don't have a wide foot by any means, they just don't look comfy at all.

327's were VERY intriguing to me when they first came around. But the look got old really quick and as usual, a brand oversaturated them by pumping out so many too fast.

I wouldn't be mad if I never saw a 327 again.

Can anyone help identify these NB from the latest episode of Ted Lasso?

 

[crazy ebw]

Something about the green on the Todd Snyder's has me wanting them, but it's certainly something I can live without.

327?

I love mine and wear them frequently. They are very lightweight, comfortable and stylish. They do look narrow but they arent

Another Weekend dig for the “older” stuff
Ronnie Fieg Brooklyn Bridge

Fire, grabbed those and the Central Park joints. Still some of my favorites.

Here’s a quick comp - the sb has way better quality - like the suede is way softer and thicker - the brown suede on the jfg is hard af - not sure why it’s not the same material. Also the leather and fluffy stuff on the sb is great. The materials on the jfg are lacking

that JFG 990v3 isn't amazing to me, i think the roll out is building anticipation but something about them looks cheap.

What's the sizing on 992 if I wear sz 10 on 57/40?

His NB1s we’re far better than the 993s. In terms of 993s Bodega > JFG & it’s not really close either,

I am in the same boat. I love the design, but I’ve never paid that much for NB and I have most of the 2040s and a bunch of Horweens.

The recent Levi’s fiasco doesn’t give me a lot of hope though.

levi’s also is anything but a high end brand…the exclusivity is stupid on that pair in particular

I spoke with an NB employee & he mentioned that the exclusivity was mostly due to covid. There should be a lot more pairs available of the 990v3 thats coming out soon.

Finally got my EB delivery

Picked up my EB shipment today after I had it delivered to my neighborhood CVS. Wasn't sure about the hype on the NBs when I ordered them but hooooooly moley

Also, the tee I got from the Y2K capsule may be one of the top-5 EB has done - love it.

Did you get the mix CD in your shipment lol? They're by far my favorite shop, and it's because they do such cool **** like this...

How's the sizing between these two models for you?

And it is realistic for anybody on here to pick up a pair of tornadoes in size 10?

I've got a 10 in the V2s and a 10.5 in the 1500s and they both fit great. I'm in-between a 10 and 10.5, but have found most MiUK pairs to fit better in a 10.5 (a bit narrower), while MiUS pairs fit me well in a 10. I have plenty of 1500s in a 10 and usually just wear thinner socks and have used some cedar shoe trees to stretch them out just a bit.
