Isn't there a blue 1500 with a herringbone pattern coming out too? Are those also Harris tweed?

Todays quick wear…

Also, these landed on my doorstep today. These are so FIYAH to me. Probably my favorite NB pick this year up next to the 990v4

Anyone know where I could get those 990v2s online? Perhaps on sale

Man I remember I was in 3rd grade (2000-01) and my friend got a pair of blue and “volt” type green NBs. Always liked them but I’ll never see them again no idea what model or anything

Herringbone remind me of the 997PAK. One of the highest quality 997 I ever seen in person. All of the small detail pieces, that are usually plastic, are composed of leather on that shoe.

I made a couple of under retail bids for them on goat and stockx, and they were accepted. I'd try there.

Sorry for more sizing talk but did you stick tts on these or go half down? I've had my eye on the antler cw for a minute

Thinking about trying to grab a pair of these 550s that everyone’s raving about, but i’m concerned about sizing.

My feet are sensitive to narrow toe boxes, but i’ve seen reviews recommending a half size down because of heel slippage.

What works for you?

I go half down but if you're worried about the toebox then go TTS, the toe box on the 550s is tight.

hello everyone, i don't know if you also noticed it but i noticed that new balance to increase the price of these new balance made in uk?

 

[aceofjays]

I went TTS in 550s, and with a wide foot, they’re fine for me

 

[Davey Magoo]

Do these look like dad shoes to you?

 

[MRBW]

Not dad enough

Yeah I noticed that. They are now £200 from £170, also think they want to push up the MIUSA version too from £200 to £230

If you’re in the US, check your local NB stores. Seems like every store in my area has stock of gray V2s. You can check local store stock online as well. Just not sure how accurate it always is.

Yup. i'm a wide footer and i went a half size down to deal with the heel slip and they fit fine but, I've also had a pair in my TTS and they worked fine. The heel slip is noticeable but, it is far from anything to be worried about. That's what laces are for after all.
