hope these make it to the uk soon!

So I had some 440s and I feel like they just hugged my foot a little too much.  How do the 1010s compare regarding width and length?  I slao feel like the 440 sole wore way too fast.  Wondering about the 1010 sole as well.  Thanks.

The 1010 has a lot more cushioning in the upper, so it feels more snug, which I like. I think the soles lasted longer with the 1010 as well. But they are a much thicker sole with less boardfeel than the 440 for sure.

NEED those 808’s!

[nitro89]

hoping for more colourways of these similar to the ones shown above.
Never been a fan of brown and gum shoes, they just don't do it for me, cant ever imagine myself looking down wearing a pair and thinking yep there the ones.

thats just my opinion though others may love the 70's brown look.

[Mantracker]

Bruh these brown 808's look like perfect work shoes. Comfy, supportive and not too thin so they'll last all year

Not my type of shoe to skate in but def for chillers and being active at work on the docks

A California skateshop has the 808 page up and it says "Ships Oct 1"

The black and red colorway are for October release. Some mishap with shipping they ended up at shops early before the September colorway.

I was at my local when they came in got a sneak peak at them before they stored them away for October release.

Also FWIW, the sizing is a bit different in these. I wear a 9.5 in the 1010 and the 10 felt better in the 808, 9.5 was a bit snug at the toes.

Best toe shape. Glad they kept that from the 1010. Hopefully they keep it going for future pro models.

Hopefully wear tested or someone cuts these in half, Im wondering where your foot sits in the sole. Anyone have on foot pics yet? Remind me of early 00s shoes where they are lows but the back comes way up your ankle

I’m a NB fanboy but these 808’s leave me flaccid

i wanna say this is the best we've got for on foot shots so far. at least that aren't a fuzzy instagram story screenshot

I think they look pretty sick. Tho the NB logo could have been smaller.

The all brown colourway gave me a half-mast at best...

I hope they have an ad campaign for the 2nd shoe that ages better than “Trust Tiago”

Someone had to say it

[Crap]

I guess it's too late to make it the Ryan Lay 808 or something? Shoe looks good to me, but yeah, I may hold off on buying some expensive new Tiago gear under the current circumstances.
