I was thinking I'd rather a 440 upper on a tiago sole (not the looks or wavy silhouette that would be weird, just having the actual midsole)

Hey Roth, can we expect any new 440 highs this summer? Most places are out of stock in my size for existing colorways
Is there any money in skateboarding film anymore?
I dunno about money, but the fun is boomin.

Yes!  More coming.  We have 1 new one coming for Summer in May sometime, then we have 2 coming in Fall, one a regular 440-hi and one a 440-trail version of the Hi.  Those are pushed a little further out though due to factory and shipping issues.

When you say trail version, is it similar to those NB x Primitive collab 574s or is it just a normal skate 440 Hi with trail colorway/inspo?

Never worn Nike but I like Nb 212s and 213s and they are plenty wide/ roomy.

Pretty proper casual trail hiker.  A little more built up in the upper with materials that are better for hiking as well, but much more of a hiker than that low top 574.

Can you confirm that white/green 1010 above is going into production?

i'm interested in hopping on the new balance bandwagon but in order to do so, i need a wide vulc shoe (or a cupsole comparable in grip) that's at least as thick/supportive as an OG nike blazer. what do you nerds recommend?? (please don't say 440s, i've tried them on and they're way too narrow for me)

The 1010 is what you need. Wear em for a few days casually or leave em in a hot trunk for a day then skate em.

I’d recommend the 306’s. If you tried 440 lows the highs fit much nicer (and more comparable to a blazer). I know you said not to mention the 440.

Westgate 508s or 272s. The 272 had about the same sole thickness as a Blazer. The 508s felt slightly thinner/more fitted but are a cup

306 would probably be your jam.

1010s are wide, but are a thick cupsole. Took awhile to get used to how they feel skating (and that was coming from Emerica G6 cupsoles). That being said, I fucking love the 1010s so much.

But if you’re a vulc person, 306 for sure.

It's coming.  It's like a Boston Celtics colorway...I could never put those on my feet but it's a banger.

Is there a NB shoe like the 440 but on a longer lasting sole ?
My upper still has a lot of life in it but the sole under my big toe is already gone.
Normally it's exactly the opposite for me.
But I like the way they skate and would buy NB again when there's a more durable option.

Before they phased them out, the 533v1 and 533v2 would be pretty close suggestions to be like the 440. Sole and upper on those were pretty durable and not too thin.

The 808 that's coming could be a good one, the new 425, and if there are any numeric 574's then those, too!

Thanks man ! 425 looks promising. On pics it looks like there's a bit more meet at the toe area.
Gonna check them out.

They need to make a total blackout version of the tiagos with the N barely noticeable. Their logo looks so ugly to me.

I like the tonal N logo on this pair. Goes well with the color blocking.

I'd like to try some NB's. Narrow - medium foot width, love Blazers and Ishods, and prefer cupsole. What are the NB's to go for then?

Sounds like a 440, 508, or a 288S.
