Be cool if some kind of mid version of the Tiago came out in some 90s hiking colors, so I wouldn’t have to worry about the heel lift cough @rothdigga cough
@rothdigga any insight on why NB abandoned the synthetic suede toe patch for the newest 213s? Seems like such a missed opportunity when 95% of the shoe is already animal-friendly, and it seemed like the Samarria sig version sold well.

Could be a cost issue...not 100% sure. I do know that we're trying to expand our fully synthetic/vegan selection to more models than just the 420's. Possibly 272 or something like that and if that's the case, I'll make sure I buy stock so that the people out there looking for vegan options will have a reliable shoe to go to.

For reals, I'll let them know. Mid 1010's would look super tight!

I don't expect it to actually happen because a lot of people seem to love that shoe as-is, but even just one extra eyelet worth of coverage at the top would make a big difference. The mid-top with the hiking inspiration is a good call - kind of like what they've done with some of the lifestyle models. Just add an extra eyelet and a couple of small details:

1010s to me have the least heelslip of any shoe ever, thanks to the added pads around the achilles.
Every time the McRib comes out I buy it. I don't even like the damn things.

Those things get great reviews tho. Tough as nails.

Hey NB fam, which # would have the best lasting sole? I go through that the quickest usually of most shoes except the Twsawn where the side blows out fast. I skated the old PJ Ladd pro model and they were not bad. Thinking of trying something new
D3s and mongo? It's over.
