Great article by Hikmet in Sneaker Freaker. Not directly NB related but insightful nonetheless:

Got my backup NB 998DPHO in from Neiman. Only $110 shipped. Necessary to have a backup of it.

what ?

Is that like a boot??

 

[bahljs]

I need more 991 made in England in my life.

 

[newbalance365]

NB 990 boots coming soon. two colorways.

 

[ninjaskills]

Just messing around a bit...

Love the top pair and had something very similar. The Skunks are nice too but some might say a bit simple for all the options available....the bottom pair? DOPE! Anything with that mint cream I'm down with.

Speaking of NB1 does anybody have a pic or shoe in hand of the Copper Rose or Sahara Sunset? I'm trying to step out of my comfort zone color wise!

Refer to the M990SR4. Primary color on the suede upper is sahara sunset. Other hits are copper rose, I believe.

kinda digging the mid top. is the mesh water repellent/impenetrable?
in search of something for the rainy season. eyeing last years ball and buck 585 too. just need something less bulky than my red wings.

Hope it comes with Goretex for the winter. The Norse Rainer Boot serves me really well during rainy days

Oneness' product shots are terrible. I'm curious to see these in person. I am really digging them, though, based on color way and the FIFTEEN HUNDRED on the tongue. They're almost like a remix of the Gentlemen's Pack but with Navy dominating the shoe.

Cousin of the 1500 gentlemen pack

 

[vinylbeing]

My..my....my. Only leather and nubuck, contrast stitching, the tongue lettering, gum sole. Most def coppin'.

 

[waiwai]

Hmmm I already get the blue gentlemen pack so have to pass this one.....but think they will probably have other cw on this

 

[jamesandstl]

Yeah, those 1500 are nice. I would still love to catch the original "Gentleman Choice" pack. I asume the MCG will make a wider release eventually or not?

Those look amazing, except for the spelled out FIFTEEN HUNDRED on the tongue. It just doesn't look right.

On the inside of the tongue in one of their horrible product shots there is a mention of being made for the modern gentleman. Not sure what that's about nor the obvious original gentleman's pack vibe.

 

[threegeees]

Damn those 1500 are crazy dope. Shape looks a bit wonky but that just may be bad pics. Materials look amazing tho

The Solebox x New Balance 575 “Being Hunted” and the LFSTL x New Balance 577 “Kakkerlak” are truly amazing and on top of my list.

 

[threegeees]

There's a few on that list that have no business being there

not really feeling those, kinda weird color blocking. the other 1500's they have on oneness are nicer to me

I'll go with those 575 as well - The Being Hunted guy always delivers great stuff in terms of collabs - whether sneakers or apparel. One of the pioneers of digging obscure Japanese brands and stuff.
