Any more upcoming vegan options? This past batch was teased almost a year in advance so I’m worried there’s no follow-up

did this get lost in the mix, or purposely avoided @rothdigga @mini greek

I'll have to look and see but I got enough stock of those first 2 to last a while.  I know you're looking for more flavor so let me see what else we have coming. 

[wax poetic]

Skated the Boss 480's this past weekend... I'll probably grab another pair or two of those and rock them until we hopefully get news of his pro model.  They were exactly what I was looking for.   I loved the Asics Gel Vikka I tried but NB got me back with this shoe.

You say grab another pair or two so casually like many many people haven't gotten even one pair before it sold out. I seriously put a pair in the cart on the dot of release time at my local and it sold out before I checked out. Why are they under producing these colorways?

Btw I eventually got my pair but this run  was severely under produced and I don't see them restocking.

Rothdigga seemed to imply a restock was coming.

We have another animal friendly 440 coming on the v2 for middle of 2024 I believe.

Ah I swear I looked through the last few pages after I asked but I missed his response. Thanks for bringing that up then.

Man the NB boys are putting the kibosh on those Knox links.   No skateboardschuhe for you!

Haha. I snagged some white/black 480s last week, but they don’t come out until Friday. I learned my lesson, won’t post links to stuff that’s not out on a public forum lol 👀

Since these aren’t super hyped shows like Dunks and Jordan’s it’s easy to catch retailers slippin’. Some just post them with no regard to release dates.

Come on guys...how the fuck else are we going to know when a retailer is blowing it and putting our stuff out early!  Keep posting those links for us.

Is the 808 a discontinued shoe? Or will they continue to make them after he has a new shoe?

I'm trying decide if I should get a second pair or if I got time to wait.

to be fair the 808 is his newer shoe and they didn't stop making the 1010 when it came out. that doesn't guarantee anything for the 808, but personally i wouldn't be worried about them going away

No, they’re still making new ones and tons are in the wild. You’ll be able to wait. They kept the 1010 in the lineup. It’d go away before the 808, and even that’s a huge stretch.

Also nice try @rothdigga 😛

[WideFeet]

Love the colorways of the black/white, white/black 480’s.

If anyone missed out on the Reynolds and thinks these will be easy to get, think again. I think they’re actually more limited

They probably will be, but with the lack of Reynolds hype they may sit longer.

You mean you aren’t idly googling a shoe for images daily and then happen upon a European site like the rest of us?

I would rather have you bros handle the heavy lifting for me and just follow the breadcrumbs.

Happy to help (since I assume I’ll be offered the chance to buy some 600s at cost)

@rothdigga might be jumping the gun here, heard we might be getting a 480 high also? any truth to those rumors>?

[close]

If I'm able to get off my ass and film a couple curb clips while I'm in China right now, you guys can do that fucking Blade Runner shit ya'll do where you freeze frame those Reynolds stories and dissect what kind of shoes he's got on.  You might get a sneak peek at the above mentioned shoes.  No guarantees that I can actually land something worthy of getting clipped up.

[close]

Pals, Rothdigga posted and whatever shoes he’s wearing look interesting. All black 480 highs? My PI skills aren’t that great if anyone else has some intel.

got the zoom & enhance. heel shot trying to find the top, looks like a high/mid. didn't see any super clear shot of the collar

[close]

Rothdigga has to be maniacally laughing wherever he is at right now for teasing that he’s skating 480 mids/highs, and then posting a clip in pants. Hahahaha.

Well played, sir. Well played.

[close]

I just don't skate in shorts very often and probably wouldn't rock these hi-tops with shorts on as they're pretty bulky looking.  I should have tucked in my jeans to the upper to give you guys a better look.

No worries. I don’t rock shorts while skating most of the time either. Just made me smile. We can maintain just a little mystery.

Positive attitude guys.  Just found another pair.  Easy peasy.  I am waiting a few though because I may buy a part for my 4Runner that takes precedence right now.  Otherwise I'll pick them and a deck up tonight. Wooooo

[pointandclick]

Love the colorways of the black/white, white/black 480’s.

i heard these arent going to be available in canada. I hope future seasons you can reissue this or make them a contstant colorway atleast once a year.

[moonordie]

Btw what are the materials on the white/black ones?

[DarkPools]

Looks like a full smooth leather (not the nappy kind on the Reynolds) upper with the typical mesh/canvas trims. Probably a similar grain of leather on some of the 1010s

It seems like and it would make sense since usually white shoes= leather.
On a different note, does non numeric NB have a screwed up sizing too? Found some 2002R on my usual size for a nice price.

We could de-rail this whole thread with 4Runner talk if you want.  I'm on my 2nd one right now, had a 2012 SR5 4x4 but upgraded to the 2021 TRD PRO when it came out.  I don't think I'll ever own a different car to be honest.

I'm curious, what size do you wear? Sizes 9-11 are usually gone for any shoe with built in demand within a day at all online shops I frequent.
