According to @rothdigga , today’s when they’re getting the 440hi in so I think we can expect them in shops next week

The port of Long Beach/LA as other plans for our shoe releases it seems, so it'll be another 2 weeks I'm guessing.  We're still at the mercy of unloading ALL of those ships out there and it's delaying a lot of shoes for us.  We still have 4 more Spring 21 shoes to deliver that are stuck out there on boats.  Nothing we can do but wait...

Just when I thought the browns tickled my funny bone enough, these came alone. Looks like I'm going to have to edge a little longer.

How many different colorways has he had at this point?   He’s like the ishod of NB (which hopefully means he’ll get his own shoe)

He's had 3 Halloween colors, this one (canvas/vegan friendly) and then an upcoming Halloween one (probably).  I will put a note in our NB suggestion box- Franky pro model per SLAP PALS

I've decided that I would kill for a pair of 440his in a brown colorway. Not gum though, brown specifically. I loved the brown dunks that came out in europe and the blazer mids are pretty sick except I can't rock the baby blue that's on em. Seems unlikely it would ever happen but a man can dream.

Apart from running big, what can you tell me about the 508s?  How is the toebox compared to the 440 (god tier shoe)?  Wide, narrow, or the same? Do they skate decent?  Boardfeel?  How supportive?  I'm really considering pulling the trigger on a pair, but I'm fucking cheap so they'd better be worth picking up at full price if I do.
I came here to ask the same thing.  At least now I know to go half a size down if they run closer to Adidas than Nike.

I think the backlog at the Long Beach Harbor has put release dates in pencil

Yeah, that whole port delay is really jacking things up out here.  That black 1010 should be here any day, just a matter of when it clears customs and makes it to our warehouse along with the 440-hi, 288S and last 440 lo from Spring 21.

I surfed yesterday on the Huntington/Newport border and counted at least 10 cargo ships within sight., all on this side of Pedro and definitely not all that were out there. Madness.

It's crazy looking.  It looked like that after 9/11 and the port was shut down for a couple of weeks, so there was a massive backup then but they got through it pretty quick.  This one is different because the volume of goods coming in is just crazy high.  Just all of the stuff that is now getting restocked from last Summer/Fall/Holiday production coming in. 
And yes, the 213SAM Vegan Samarria should be coming in with the same batch that we're waiting on.

Yeah man. We went to Bolsa Chica on NYD and I hadn’t ever seen anything like it on that particular day. Felt like production catchup was in full effect.

Ricki has my addresss, just swing by with the 13s and we can skate ;)
Just playing but we met a few times when I was doing the music for 411 in the early aughts.
ok thanks
