    The dark brown laces I got from a 1500 did wonders to this 991.

    Was looking for a low-key pair that can go with anything and found this M996CFIS. Also bought this Diadora N9000 H ITA that ended my NB buying streak of 16 pairs. Quality is excellent but I had to cut off the excess plastic around the holes in the red eyelets that would ruin the laces.

    Just sharing how I manage to fit my pairs (with shoe trees) inside the typical NB boxes. I myself only started collecting NB's September last year, so initially I hated how small the MiUK and MiUSA boxes were. I love them now of course and would not want to go back to the bulky Nike/JB packaging...

    My first pair of 2002R. The materials may not be on MiUSA/UK level but the sillhoutte is damn sexy. I think I can wear this with anything.

    The primary colors pack aspen looks so much better with sail laces that match the color of the midsole (it came with white ones out of the box—boring). A slight tweak goes a long way!
