Those Grey/Navy ones didn’t last in size 14 😖

And yeah, they look better beat up. Sick colorway.

I kinda feel like the 440 high tricked me, I was thinking the high top would give me more support but that whole panel being mesh really doesn’t do much. Gonna have to try the 480 high next

I've had slight ankle sprains in the 440 hi but nothing too bad. I always lace my shoes all the way up. I rarely flip or do any crazy shit nowadays but the hi tops kinda made me feel more confident.  ;D

Never mind. Found some. All the clips NB# have been posting got me hyped. They might be a Top 3 colorway.

Non skaters have taken to the 480? I always forget the numbers.

I'm thinking that NB# is going to experience a big crossover in 2024.

Maybe dunks will go back to normal demand

Dunks are gonna go back soon regardless but I really hope the hype beasts don’t destroy nb# for us. It’s the best company out in terms of versatile product line and availability and price.

Side note: randomly did some slappies in my daily driver 550s yesterday and aside from the shit leather they use for the regular brand that takes forever to break in , these are pretty skateable. Might get some suede ones and swap the insole . @rothdigga can y’all make a skate one already?

Anyone interested in a slightly discounted 440v2 white blue low size 10?    The new ones fit smaller than the v1 and I don’t want to pay restocking at concepts after I bought these on sale

Feel free to gnar me if this has been answered before… do we know more about the Reynolds pro shoe timeline beyond “2025”?  That could be as little as ten months away(!) and I’m trying to temper expectations.  Any leaks or teases coming through the pipeline soon, rauthadigga?

Are these the black/gum that were mentioned some posts ago? (5th slide)

Those are indeed the black/gum 440v2 coming up in April.  Good eye.

I skate way to less for the skateshoes I own but the cw reminds me of the og lakai manchester in the best possible way. I´m afraid I have to buy them :)

1010 users, do you lace the top loop?
I cant stand how lacing the top makes my pants rest but if i dont, i need to crank down the lower laces so tight theyre uncomfortable.


On a side note, just tried on the 600s and i gotta say, love how the toe shape is similar to the 1010 but the overall shoe is a bit lighter. Might have to be the next adventure after i finish my current stack.

This was a struggle for me as I was rocking .5 size up due to stock. The last lace loop became necessary as the shoes got more broken in and a little more loose, but I agree it did not look as cool lol. I’m thinking my next pair will be TTS and perhaps i won’t have to rock the last lace loop, cuz it doesn’t look G.

Spring 25 is all I can say, but any dreams of them showing up in 2024 are unfounded and not going to happen.  Definitely no spoilers on that shoe, should be a fun reveal once it's debuted though.

I lace the 1010 to the top while the shoe is breaking in and once it’s molded to my foot a little bit I’ll unlace it to the one below. Always superglue the little accent eyelet though because I rip that part every time and eventually end up having to lace em to the top anyway

The top loop pinches too high for my foot and causes issues with my ankles so I cut an extra little lacehole in between the top hole and the plastic eyestay, but as the shoe breaks in and becomes more flexible, I often stop using that and just use the eyestay.

Hmmm, we might need to rethink our whole design of his shoe now after seeing these bad boys.  Pushing the launch to Spring 2026 boys!

Yeah yothat would suck. It would be nice if they bought just enough 808s to keep them going. I been able to get so many on sale it makes me think they not gonna be permanent. It's gotta be expensive to make. It's such a perfect thing and it's a higher number.

I wish they would snow white with reflective hits. Or snow camouflage. I'd make my own snow camouflage.

If I was a Hypebeast and not just an old ponk with sensitive feet I'd be trying to break the mold. Get away from Nike.

I'd fuck with these NB models.



They really dropped the ball with that 617. They should redo that one. I know exactly what it should be like.

That 550 reminds me of BK which low key had the best version of the Pump. That 9000 is crazy. Idk if I'd make a good Hypebeast but I'd also be rocking those old Nike pumps that came with the plastic thing you had to plug into the back of the shoe.

Anything that looks mad robo tech/ crayone character ism.

Skated twice in the 808s now and I really like that shoe. These gonna last forever. Swapped the insoles to even thinner ones so my foot sits slightly lower. Might put the original insoles back when the shoes are more broken in. I didnt feel the shoes weight when walking but skating them I can feel the difference compared to my 440s I skated previously. Nothing that would bother me though. Now I have 3 pairs in stock so gonna take some time to go through all those.  :)

Wide shoes bros- Looks like NB.com will start putting up Q2/Summer 24 product around March 15.  So to those that are looking for more wides, start checking around then.  440 won't have a ton BUT I see a re-stock of the 440 wide coming on May 11. 
574 and 272 will have wide options up on March 15 as well.  No 440-Hi wides this run but Q3 24 has some wides coming.

Thanks rothdigga, I've been checking this thread daily waiting for an indication that more wides are in stock.
