As hyped as anyone to see what it looks like.. but I can say with 98% certainty that if it’s made for Reynolds’ chicken feet it won’t work with my flippers.i

NB# is making these in regular and wides.

Do we have a NB fella here or do you know that from pre-orders?

Btw we all know that a pro shoe takes a while to happen but I remember 1010 were kinda waiting for Tiago after he switched from DC.
Anybody knows more about it?

[close]

Yeah, Jeff had already designed the 1010 with Tiago in mind "just in case" he decided to switch brands, so we were going to come out with that shoe either way but he designed it with him in mind and it worked out nicely.  So his shoe was able to come out WAY quicker than someone designing it from scratch like the 933.

Do you remember if much changed from the original design? or did it end up just being a good fit out the gate?

They talk a bit about the process here: https://www.villagepsychic.net/blog/jeff-mikut

And there's this hilarious picture:

You clearly don't know what you're talking about.

I’m assuming from username that Ben is co owner of Kinetic in Delaware. Really good guy if it is him.

[ScandiAndy]

Does anyone know if the 440 High V2 Justin Henry model will be available in Europe? It’s been on the American NB website for a while now, but the German and Danish NB sites still don’t have it stocked. I need it!!

Gently bumping this one. Hoping for a Christmas miracle!

@rothdigga did you see this?

[DanRar009]

Is anyone allowed to post pics of the current lineup of shoes that will be in Q1 2025? Someone posted that we have some super good colorways coming and I’m interested to see what we’re working with. Kinetic skate shop posted a really nice all black colorway of the 1010. Reminiscent of one of the launch colorways of the 1010, very nice 👌

Oh yeasss those all black tiagos are a must! Love any all black with white N new balance

[Atiba Applebum]

I’m guessing that’s like a wine red.  I like those a lot!  I was kinda thinking about checking out the white black ones that are similar.  They look really good in footage


Edit: saw them in person - they’re brown, but maybe a hint mahogany

[hiljentaa]

I really hope there is another suede 508 colorway soon. Too many leather drops recently.

Same

[95666]

There will be a 508 in Black suede/gum (white laces) coming in summer. Then in the fall, there's a white gum in suede too, and an all grey with navy accents (that one looks so nice).
And as far as the updates to the 808, it seems they are reducing the weight of the shoe, so less of the leather/rubber parts and more suede/mesh instead.

At this point my work checks should be direct deposited to NB. That colorway is amazing.

[fakiefs180]

Okay so. Got the 808 in my tts and half size up. Tts fits way better as half size up for me. Although a bit snug but the shoe is hella stiff and I think/hope that it will stretch a bit sideways. The length is great as is.

My experience so far with New Balance, if it doesn't work tts, it doesn't work half size up or down. At least for me, but every foot is different and everyone likes different snugness.

It's so close to the wheat 1010 idk why they didn't just do the wheat colorway

Good news! Thanks for the heads up. Would gnar ya if I could.

[Madam, I'm Adam]

White/gum 1010s look very nice. Might cop. Wonder if the heel slip issue I had with 1010s before is fixed, think you mentioned that Roth. Great shoe all in all, I had a good time in the pair I skated.

Nah I like this beige as lame as it sounds the colorway reminds me of a pair of soaps I had and I loved those because of the color.
