Can you confirm if they bring extra laces fam?
 
I like those V6's but my sneakers budget funds ain't like the Pentagon no mo'. I still have these Asics joints in the collection. Going to grab and reshape these joints and put them in my summer rotation...

Those purple 998’s are a must-cop for me. Hoping they hit 50% off like the grey’s.
I am def playing chicken with these. I really want them but if they start to disappear i prob will pay retail. But gonna wait it out a bit a pray for a discount

Same being a sz 13 my size flies in a lot of shoes. My only hopes are that 1. these are purple 2. the masses aren't really interested in 998 type silhouettes unless they're a collab 3. ppl want the chunky 2000s look to go with they're oversized hemmed pants and cropped tees.
 
That purple is so dope but that retail price is nasty


New Balance retail is just stupid, period! :smh:

"Made in USA"...."Made with great quality...." Blah blah blah.

Give me New Balances at Nike's price points and the lower quality, I don't give a uff!! :lol: It's not like I'm wearing any NB's to go running/for long time wears. I just like the way they look. :lol:

They have different tier of models for different purposes. I like how they won’t compromise when it comes to the “Made In” stuff, and will just wait for discounts to avoid retail for most pairs.

Like I want a G Wagon, but I’m only willing to pay GL prices haha.

I strongly and respectfully disagree with this.

I used to feel just like you.

Then I looked at how many times I've worn, for example, my United Arrows/Kith 997's from 2018. Most of us just have too many pairs to wear/ go through that quality isn't as important if I were instead wearing 1 or 2 pairs of sneakers per year. $200+ retail is absurd.

I truly only need/want high quality for the sneakers I run & work out in. All my other kicks I just chill in.

I feel you which leads me to think that more and more it just makes sense to get rid of all the excess. I have too many shoes that I think I love (or really like) that I never wear. Kinda over it. I won’t derail any more, I know there’s a downsizing thread in general lol

I see your point. This is lead me to the conclusion I have way to many shoes. I got pairs from 2018 DS!!! I've been trying my best to cut back and sell more and I have made a dent but I need to do more.
