Don’t listen to me, but I get a full size down in the highs and throw a thinner insole in these days.

[uesty]

Hi guys I'm thinking about getting the 440 hi Tom knox colorway but I'm not really sure how those fit. I have seen that they fit big or TTS. I usually get size 10 in all shoes and the only shoe I half size down is the Chuck 70. What size should I get?

Thanks!

i too am a 10 in all shoes, and rock with the high and low 440s in a 10. little wiggle room by my big toe but i like that

[rothdigga]

does anyone know if we will be getting these in canada? Im assuming these are new because we still haven't got the Olive / Camo / Orange colourway here either as far as I can tell.

Those are for sure coming to Canada. The ports up there are even worse than the US right now.  I’m showing June delivery of these up there.

[rothdigga]

Does anyone here know if we can ever expect to see another run of the 913s, the original Brandon Westgate shoe? It is my favorite skate shoe I've used before, and I have two pairs on ice. Just wondering if I should be making a more concerted effort to obtain any other stray pairs I can find before they're gone forever.

You can expect to see the 913 again surface this year sometime in the Fall.  We will probably bring it back 1 time a year so make sure you stock up when they hit!

I would say 0.5 up actually, but that's my personal relationship with NB#, almost all their shoes run small for me. 1010, 533[v1 & v2], 440, 440Hi, 288, etc.

Do you ever have to 0.5 up in cupsole models? If so, 0.5 u. If not, TTS, but do not size down. If you don't have super thin/narrow feet, TTS is probably best. If you go 0.5 up and it's a lil roomy, swap to a better insole (which it really needs tbh).

I've never had to. The last couple of cupsoles I skated were the OG Booz, Campus ADV and Marana and all were size 10(TTS)and the fit was great. I was thinking buying a pair of FP insoles, maybe the 5mm but I don't think I should size up right? I saw that the insole sucks and it gets all mushed upfront.

Also, thanks to @allen. and @uesty. A full size down would murder my feet haha

TTS should be fine then!
Usually , if others 0.5 up on the Marana (like I do), I've seen many also have to 0.5 up on NB# cups.

NB has to get their sizing together or at least like Converse they should tell you if you should size up or down. I don't even want to skate the 440,looks so clean and classic haha thank you

[Damoforce]

Maybe not the best examples but Nike ishods and nyjahs are $150, Adidas tyshawns $150, but new balance tiagos are $200 in Aus. Nb might have the better tech but you still pay for it down here. (Altho their other shoes range from$120-$160)

And you're paying upwards of $170-200 for some Vans like Half Cabs and Ave.

I found the Tiago hands down best value of those. Ishods were junk. Tyshawns not bad.

Yeah vans prices now are kinda unreal. When the janoski came out I couldn't believe people bought them, you could get pretty much any two pairs of vans for the same price. now it's completely inverted. I think the westgate 913 have gone down in price (altho they don't come out very often) so maybe when the next big tech nb comes out the tiagos will go down in price also.

You can find the 1010s on sale sometimes which is nice. I got my last 2 pairs for around 110 which is great imo. They are such a clean show and hold up really well!

absolutely agreed. idk if they are gonna ship sooner, but i saw the foy & 1010 went up early on parade so i maaaayyyy have copped a pair

[Coastal Fever]

Damn I’d love a pair of 1010s.  But I haven’t paid $150cdn for sneakers since I spent my whole grocery store paycheck on D3s back in 2002.

[hotdogsweatpants]

Need those grey 306s.

Shops here in the UK keep restocking the black/gum 306, but all I want is a restock of these:



Rothdigga, will it ever happen?!

I don't currently have a re-stock of that particular 306 coming for the UK sadly for you.  If you can find them to ship overseas I would grab them but they're not currently in the carryover plan to be re-made again.  Sorry! 

FYI...Canada Grey Day shoes are stuck in port so those will be available up there in June at shops.

Stopped by my local yesterday to grab a sci-fi hat and got to talking with the owner about some New Balance stuff, the upcoming 808 and the new 1010 colorways. I started talking about how they don't carry 1010s in an 11.5 and how I felt bad having to buy them from Parade. He said he's gonna order one of each of the new 1010 colorways in an 11.5 for me. I'm stoked!

WhAts up with these? Look like the Gray days but with navy accents and a cream sole

I believe this is a case of saturation and lighting being deceptive.  Like the blue vs black vs gold dress debate online a few years back.  They’re the same as ours but just taken with natural light so the heel and TPU layer look darker than the photos we posted.

Definitely these more than last years.

i just realized, are these coming with flat laces instead of the 1010's usual round ones? they usually come with 2 pair so i wonder if it'll have round grey and flat white, not that it matters at the end of the day.

Are you from Chattanooga? Looks like comfort skate shop. I'm out in Memphis and I've stopped in a few times since my parents recently moved out there. Cool shop and nice locals.
