I’ve been lurking enough and finally decided to pull the trigger on my first pair of 440s. Getting some lows but I really like the highs as well so I plan on copping a pair of those later when I see a colorway that catches my eye.

Which color did you end up getting? 440s are great imo, hope they work out for you

I’m pretty basic when it comes to colorways so I grabbed the Black/Grey pair of the lows. I might try to branch out and get some color in my life with the highs.

all these 1010 colorways coming out are really making the 808 look lame in comparison.

I wish my toes liked that shoe.

Nah, there are some real nice 808's that have come out too.  These two on Humidity's site look good

White ones look dope

the tan ones are pretty decent.

Sir, I'm going to politely, but firmly, ask you and your common sense to leave this establishment.

Nice, I tend to like the colorways of the highs over the lows. Though I am looking for the all blk Tom Knox lows. My friend has them and they look so sick in person

making the request for a 440 high in this colorway plz
[close]

this new one on here is pretty close

Jack Darwin's are pretty close too

Skating these rn and they are imo the best 440 out, leather is super nice and they look even better after you skate em for a while. Got another pair waiting for summer

These look really nice. Love the panelling.
They don’t look like it but they give me the emotional spirit of the Emerica Hsu 1.

These are beautiful. It's pretty much a contrast of the first colorway released. Very nice.

I dig it. The Villani models tend to have more vegan versions than most other NB models and hopefully that's true for this shoe as well

As much as I loath Mr. Eggboard's skating, this shoe is nice.... to nice for him.

Those villanis look great!  417 so that would make it a cup or a crazy tech vulc ? I’m not super into leather skate shoes but damn if the leather was suede instead it would be ideal for me. But either way NB gonna get my money.

Not sure about this shoe, but a lot of clips at least
take what small comfort there may be left
seize what you love and damn all the rest

My local skateshop has the Franky Villani's for sale already. It must be a mistake. I live in Norway, so it would be strange if they release here first

I’m sure they got a permit for this, but why did Los Feliz Elementary stop being a spot?    I would try and peak over the wall at my old bar which was behind it to see what the deal was, but i couldn’t see much, just asphalt

From other pictures, it seems that it is a vulc with some ABZORB insole (maybe midsole?)
