lime, you should be able to find some on ebay pretty easy

Yes sir lace god.

Stock laces are 36" right? Hopefully can find something a little shorter.

nuclear1990 · Jan 16, 2020

redrum3281 so I've been looking at lime green laces like you suggested. The shoe just has too many shade of green on it. I'm not sure.

Heel is like a bright grassy green, pull tab is more like a greenish volt, toe stripe/tongue tag is a darker green, and the lace dubrae is a lighter green.

youre going to want to match the dubrae as best possible to pull it off

These are so close. I’m considering copping on discount and customizing into OG France NMDs with a white sharpie:

Got these for $49 yesterday from Marshall's. The PK definitely fits about .5 large.

I swear I’ve come so close to buying these like 10 different times haha The thing that always stopped me was-what the hell do you wear with them?

I can't decide if they are blue or black or like a slate grey lol.

Sometimes you just have pairs and say screw it and wear them.

I actually have a Jordan shirt at home they'll match up with pretty close lol.

So I ordered "olive green" laces and this is what I was sent. That's not olive green in the slightest and doesn't resemble the listing image either imo.
Listing https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/133026633338 image 16.

You think the image 15 would be right?

that seems a little light in color for my taste but it's not bad, i'd try for a shade darker

Oh yeah the color is totally wrong and looks worse in person. I messaged the seller asking if they sent the wrong color. I would never call them "olive green" it looks closer to neon green-yellow.

Are Hu NMDs done? I noticed I haven’t heard of any future releases since the Human Mades came out last fall..

Oh that’s right. That new font looks terrible, idk why they would change it up like that.

Doesn't bode well for the shoe line in general.
Rocked a pair the other day and it hit me like "what in the heck happened to nmds??"
Then i forgot about it, and washed the car....

Well the best ones are so limited and expensive that nobody cares about the HU anymore, be nice to see him start using the nmd2 and a diff sole style mix it up like you do the uppers. I like a lot of his stuff despite not owning a lot of it but he's gotta up his game

Anyone know what's the word on these? Did the release date get delayed?

Honestly, I wish they just ended this line... 90%+ of CWs are either awful or completely uninspired. I wish Adidas would just vault them for 5-10 years and then come back strong when people are able to appreciate the NMD’s impact on the sneaker industry.

i don't know if nmds were ever meant to be a hypebeast shoe, much like ultraboosts. they're like am90s or am1s or whatever nike shoe has a bazillion colorways that is liked by regular folks and hypebeasts alike.
