Any numeric release for the gray day? Maybe the 480, 574 or the 600 this year...

Grey day is looking really weak this year

The Vu 440 is a Grey Day release in my mind

sorta random question, but noticed Westgate and other riders wearing a NB# grey crewneck with embroidered chest logo, will NB ever drop numeric apparel for the public?

love me some minimal grey crewnecks and that NB# one would go great with like 90% of my collection.

Funny you should ask that, reps are selling in apparel as we speak and it is slated to hit around Feb 2025.

We have a VERY small amount of something coming for later in May Grey day.  It's a cool project but very minimal stock so only a handful of stores will have it.  Stay tuned as it gets closer.

Looks like the next batch of 480 Highs is right around the corner, black/gum and white/grey.

Oh damn, those are looking real good. I'm skating a pair of the white and red ones right now and they skate well, plus I get a lot of compliments on them lol. Might have to pick up that black pair eventually

Gotta stop buying shoes, but this Black Suede/Gum ones are literally my dream shoe. Only way they could be better is if the N was completely blacked out. Which I can do with a marker 🤭

I just saw the Clay Leos and said I didn't need them, but wanted them, and was gonna try like hell to wait until those went on sale.

Then I saw the black/gum 480 highs...I'd buy those at full price.

Lol. Eldee is definitely a human. He’s like a raider on horse back who’s kinda scared to do battle. Somehow he closes his eyes and swings his sword wildly and wakes up in a pile of dead orcs.

Wow those are nice.
How bulky is the upper section on these when laced up?
I’m a fan of how the 440HIs tuck into tapered pant legs, cant tell if these would do the same

Started to get sore feet with my hella worn-out 600s. Great shoe, but starts to feel a bit flimsy and thin towards the end of its lifecycle. Which goes for a lot of shoes, I guess.

So it was time to break in my 480s that have been on ice for a while now. Like them a whole lot. No more sore feet. They def feel bulkier, but not to the extent that I can't get used to it. Impact protection is great. Break in time and boardfeel not as bad as some people say. No need to put in an aftermarket insole (like I felt I had to do with the 600s after they started to wear down). I think they're a keeper.

They're decently bulkier than my 440 highs were. They still manage to tuck into my pant legs for the most part, but I have to lace them up all the way to do that. I don't mind since I always skate my high tops laced up all the way but I could see some people not being into them. I can try to post a clip of me wearing them with 550s if you're interested in how they look lol
