Bronze 868s up on the UK site: https://www.newbalance.co.uk/pd/nm868/NM868V1-37089.html

They've also added a white/tan 508 colourway.

NM1010GM have also been up for about a week but their image linking was borked until yesterday.

Still waiting for a re-up of the wheat/black or a drop of the Black 1010s

if i am an us9 in vans, nike, adidas,..

what size do you suggest in Tiago1010 and nb 850?
been eyeing both.

In case no one responded, at least for the 1010, go with 9. They’re true to size. Don’t know about the others.

yo @rothdigga what's up with the Bronze 868s on european sites? if any european pals would want them!

made the mistake of looking at the NB homepage and had to order the green tiagos! not that i would need any more shoes but couldn't pass em up!
can't wait to see how they look in real life and how the suede feels on em!

also can't wait for spring

Also @rothdigga, I've noticed that the latest drops of the 1010s no longer have the suede patch on the toebox, is that staying?  I gotta say I prefer the mesh toebox over the suede patch.

so the black and white posted at the top of the page have the suede and the grey with black has suede, but the black with orange is mesh. i might be wrong but it seems like an even amount of suede and mesh come out per release but it's early and i'm just going off memory. i'd hate if they got rid of the suede toe cover because i'm opposite and prefer it over the mesh lol

Haha, thanks, I couldn't tell if the black and white had the patch or not due to the contrasty shots that were posted.

I couldn't resist, ordered a pair of the olive jawns (Grey with Yellow as described on the UK site !?).  My white/gum leather pair still has some life left in them yet but I'm a fool easily parted from my money.  Looks like I nabbed the last remaining pair in my size too.

With the 212’s and 213’s is it a full half size down like cons or just roomy like half cabs?

Agree with you on this. I've skated all the variations of the 1010 and suede with mesh toebox is the best feel and fit to me.

I skate a half size down in 212/213 from what I normally wear in 1010/440hi and it fits great.

Hi thread. Can anyone provide a quick rundown on 913 vs 440 or 1010? I want a shoe with good support like the 1010, which feels really nice for my back and knees just walking around (and really quality), but the heel is way too loose. 440 I prefer which fit properly, tts.

I haven’t skated the 440s, but the 913s are excellent. They actually have my favorite sole of all time. Super durable and supportive. The upper as a whole is slimmer than the 1010s but still fairly padded. It sounds like the 1010s are more what you’re looking for though. They are tanks and your feet are super protected all around. I have personally been wearing and skating them exclusively for over a year now so I obviously vouch for them, but the 913 is a great, slightly slimmer but still very supportive alternative

Black and White 1010s are now up on the UK site.  Looks like I'll be missing out on these as there's no danger I'm buying another pair 3 days after I bought the green ones.

i feel like foy hits the 30-40 year old muska fan demographic hard which could be a decent segment to go after in the shoe game?

Somebody mentioned an “ACG” like 440 high a few pages back. Assuming it’s not the black with white stitching, can someone please spill the catalogue beans so I can start dreaming?

I need a sanity check: Is it just me or do some NB models get smaller the more they're broken in? I had to retire a pair of 212s and Tom Knox 440 highs because my toes started feeling cramped. It's like they got wider and shorter as time went on. It could be that my feet are getting flatten as I age but I have a brand new pair of the same 440s and they feel fine. Just curious if anyone has experienced the same thing.

I had to get a 1/2 size down in the 22’s. I was swimming in a 10.5. Size 10’s fit pretty well though. When they were getting to their last days, my toes kept hitting the ends. My thought was once they were working in and lost some of their structure, that’s when my foot started sliding around.

Maybe that’s what’s happening to you? Just a guess…

We made a "hiker" out of the 440 High for the second half of this year. A couple color ways in it....
