how rare is this colorway going to be in the future, is it a bite the bullet and stock up situation?

440 heads> just copped some black synth ones and while there is wiggle room for my toes, they still feel mad tight, do they loosen up a bit after breaking in? I feel like +0.5 size up would be too baggy from the get go…
How are the 1010s compared to the 440 high? I really like the 440 but would like to try a more traditional cupsole

The shoe is just bulkier all around, however, it softens up a lot and becomes decently flexible.

440 is basically a vulc shoe in the forefoot. Hate it took me so long to realize it. My knees hurt a lot less skating the 480. I do a lot of pushing and need cushioning while striking the ground.

I went from skating a pair of the 440 highs to a pair of the 1010s. The 1010s have much less board feel, especially when you first start skating them, but I got used to it very quickly. It was a very good tradeoff to have way more support and cushioning versus being able to fee my board as much.

So essentially it's a bulkier, more padded shoe, cool. Last question then, how's the boardfeel? 440s have a good boardfeel to support tradeoff ratio I can live with.

What part of the west side? Brooklyn Projects is not very close
them cats are out getting mashed up to jungle, he's out mashing up jungle cats. it's just not gonna work.
Tried the 1010 insole in the 480s trick today someone mentioned today and it makes the shoe feel a lot more like the thickness I would like for skating in than the 480 Abzorb insole does if anyone is wondering. Thanks for that suggestion whoever made it.Also it did take me quite a bit of break in time on my 480s where at first they felt a little stiffer and snug on my foot than I liked but swapping out to longer laces that I could tie them looser and breaking them in good goddamn are they feeling nice right now.

It's not 440 sensitive, but IMO its more than a Blazer, more than 808, and more than the new 480. In terms of NB cups that I. have tried on or skated it would go 508, 440, 1010, 480, 808 and for me better than a Dunk or Jordan.
