I cant find the insta post again. It was just him doing the fakie inward heel to fakie front crook on an oversided curb. I think the caption was "who's ready for a new PJ Part' but i dont think that meant anything it was probably just some dipshit fan saying that and i mistook it for someone important

Maybe you're thinking of this?  Edit since it doesn't show on the embed it says:
Who’s ready to see a new @pjladd part? 😳🙋🏻‍♂️

[close]

omg this was it thank you. i need this kind of thing in my life sometimes to ensure im not going crazy. come on pj bless us with some shalom

I interpreted that caption as like a "wouldn't that be great?!" pie-in-the-sky kinda thing, not an actual teaser for a new part.

Are they going to make standard colorways of the 440 mid and keep it as part of their regular lineup? Or should I buy every size 10 in existence?

It's in our inline selection thru 2022 at least (haven't planned 2023 yet)...

[Bubblegum Tate]

I wonder how many 533’s that PJ still has left?

I’m curious about future color ways for the 440HI. I know there’s that white and green one, but Im thinking it’s gonna be hard to top the Tom Knox version.

My thoughts exactly.

[rawbertson.]

[rawbertson.]

Lol hey, they do look good with navy blue. I’m just partial to all black and a splash of orange I guess. That’s why I think the SF Giants and Baltimore Orioles have the best hats in baseball. Id go for a Bears colorway or Cleveland Browns colorway respectively. Blue leather, gum sole, maybe an orange N. Or Brown leather, gum sole, some orange accents. NB doesn’t seem to be afraid of wacky colorways

Tom Knox asked for a football inspired version and the Americans made him fucking Cincinnati Bengals shoes

My girlfriend passed by my computer screen and saw the 440 Hi's... all she said was 'wrestling shoes' and I took them out of my shopping cart.

We'd have a LOT more shoes (and less money) if it weren't for our better halves. God bless 'em.

I always get bummed when it happens but then a few weeks down the line I always see she was right

I make my fashion decisions independent of my girlfriend, but I can’t cast stones in this glass house of mine.

Same here. I'm a doormat for everything else though.

Those are just really well done in my opinion. Hated the Primitive on the toe at first but it doesn't bother me now.

[Firebert]

You can see the sole separating from the upper in the toe on those Primitive shoes in that third pic.

[Murge]

@rothdigga do you know if there’s gonna be any more of the 440s that are black upper white tongue white sole? I loved the colorway. And been searching for some more.

I'm very happy to have my girlfriend check me and tell me when I'm gonna look like a fool and be $100 out.
She's got my back and knows me better than I know me, dog.   

Are you assuming she's telling me to wear Ugg boots or something?

I don't have any re-ups of those right now but I need to dig and see which season that shoe was from.

I can’t gauge it over the internet. I have friends that don’t realize they’re being manipulated by their significant others into dressing or behaving a certain way, but it’s super noticeable to everyone else. I basically have just had to clean up my act and stop blackout drinking and picking fights with strangers.

However, I don’t need a second opinion on what shoes or clothes I like. I like what I like.

Edit: also, how dare you imply your girlfriend is saving you from making bad footwear decisions while you’re in the upcoming shoe release thread asking if you should size up in some éS Quattro’s.

I'm feeding trolls at this point

I understand what you're saying I just don't have that problem with my girlfriend trying to dress me, she offered her opinion and I took it into consideration. Not all girlfriends are evil life suckers like your friends seem to have.
Just because I didn't buy the New Balances doesn't mean I don't need shoes at all, so yeah I asked about sizing info for a pair of shoes that were on sale. For the record I love NB's and the 400Hi's are still cool man, I just didn't buy em.

[Acky Jacky]

I’m projecting the loss of my friends autonomy onto other people, dick move on my part. My tone was supposed to be more jocular about the Quattro’s. To each their own, I hope everyone here has supportive partners who only want the best for their other halves.

Yes! I loved them. I put white laces on them and they looked aces with the white tongue.

Yeah man, I had to dig deep in our digital catalogs to find those bad boys.  Summer 2018 is right so it's going to be awful hard to find those again.  I'll throw those into the mix when we're discussing bringing back OG colorways next time.
