I dig it. The Villani models tend to have more vegan versions than most other NB models and hopefully that's true for this shoe as well

As much as I loath Mr. Eggboard's skating, this shoe is nice.... to nice for him.

Those villanis look great!  417 so that would make it a cup or a crazy tech vulc ? I’m not super into leather skate shoes but damn if the leather was suede instead it would be ideal for me. But either way NB gonna get my money.

Not sure about this shoe, but a lot of clips at least

My local skateshop has the Franky Villani's for sale already. It must be a mistake. I live in Norway, so it would be strange if they release here first

I’m sure they got a permit for this, but why did Los Feliz Elementary stop being a spot?    I would try and peak over the wall at my old bar which was behind it to see what the deal was, but i couldn’t see much, just asphalt

From other pictures, it seems that it is a vulc with some ABZORB insole (maybe midsole?)

I saw a Tony Ferguson board in there...? Is he getting a new board? Will cop if so.

Shoe looks good, I already have a pair of the 1010s on ice though.

Those new 440Hs look good. Might get the Black ones. White ones are clean, but these Tom Knox ones I have look ugly now after skating them 😅

NB has been “it” for a couple years. Nike been number 2 and then everything else. That Franky shoe is what I want in a vulc. A beefed up half cab. I’ll take white on white suede leather combos with gum outsole asap please and thanks.

As stated above, vulc confirmed.  Named the 417 because of the "714" area code he's from in Santa Ana (but can't use 714 as that would denote tech per our numbering system). 
Also, the leather you see is PU coated suede, so if you skate it, it'll actually wear down to a suede.  Just an FYI for those who prefer suede, it's sort of a combo of both as it looks super nice like leather but then will wear down as a durable suede once skated.  A lot of our shoes have that feature so don't be scared off by the leathers if you're questioning it.
Marketing is hitting for these early May, but you should start seeing them pop up in shops anytime.

417 looks remotely like NB's take on a slimmed down Half Cab, which is great! Might be the first vulc I have really skated in a year.
