Why don't more people like New balance? A lot of their shoes looks good, way better than most nike shit.

Their shoes don't looks good, they're not better than most nike shit and the gaudy 'N' is hideous.

They're shoes made for people who don't give a shit, like children and old men

Because they're literally the official shoe of autism. They're the prime example of what unfashionable people like to wear.

If there were more color in the front of the shoe I'd say yeah. They'd probably look better in a different colorway.

420 can look good depending on the midsole.

That's my beef with new bals numbering system, you find an upper you like but they throw any midsole on it, so the same number model can look completely different than another. It's simultaneously the most autistic and most autism triggering system.

They actually aren’t very cheap though, they have cheap options sure but so does every brand. Any of their decent shit is over $300.
I think maybe you guys just aren’t ready to step out of the sock shoe (ultra boosts and the likes) conformity zone.

Have pic related and they're comfy as fuck. Plus I actually like the way they look.

>> No.13431132

I bought some New Balances a few years ago (the good ones made in the USA) and I've literally walked thousands of miles in them and they are still in great shape. I wanted to buy some new ones for when these do eventually die but the store I was at only had New Balances made in Vietnam or China or wherever and they all looked like cheap garbage.

I really don't think the logo is so bad personally, how do you guys feel about shit like the Nike swoosh? It does seem they're hearing peoples complaints though, the N is more muted on newer models. I think if they did away with it entirely it'd be hard to identify them as they don't really have an iconic silhouette or anything distinct, think of how you can still recognise air maxes without the swoosh.
