How are they in hand? Got my sights on these as well!

They are everything I expected and more. The suede is New Balance's A1 quality. My second pair of the 574S model. Low-key liking them more than my Ronnie 28's N pair.​

Word! I'm thinking of copping these, throwing one of those waterproof sprays on and using them to replace boots for the winter... probably a mistake since I live in New England BUT they'd definitely be more comfortable than a pair of timbs, I imagine

Looking at this old NB a blog
Came across this and found it amusing

 

[jamesandstl]

I kinda wish they did more with patent leather. Might show my age, but I always liked it.

Thanks. I actually prefer the post office over courier since there are no brokerage fees.

It does get routed through usps once it gets to the USA. it's not so bad, and the tracking is decent.

early and mid 00's was definitely a golden era

LOL... thanks for posting this, homie. Makes me wonder what heads will think about current models years down the line.

Wore my 990 salmon out after a long hiatus. Damn I really slept on those stussys...

I'm not an old NB head but I feel like it's going thru a renaissance-esque era. Just speaking on all the banging retro collabs/GRs in the last few years with their use of colors and materials have been impressive. Def giving me the feels like back in 92'-96' when nike was producing all them groundbreaking models.

Not a real big fan of the patent leather, but still to this day I wish I had a pair of crispy size 10 Red Patent Leather Sheed' Lows.

 

[mrmofoness]

I used to like the red, white, and blue sheed lows.

Damn we are after the same size and doing the same thing lol. There are some 8 and 9 left but not 8.5

i posted a couple links that have 8.5 in stock. all $250 before shipping to you. and probably have to use a shipping forwarder. not worth it imo

Yoooo the red/white/blue pair is one of my favorite AF1 low of all time. Really brought it back with this one.

What do you guys know about Parcelforce? Is it a courier service like FedEx/UPS or does it get routed to USPS/Canada Post? Want to cop from Hanon and just worried about brokerage/customs fees, esp here in Canada.

Parcelforce handle international post in the UK. They are part of Royal Mail. They would just send it over to your domestic post service.

Might need to make a NB1 inspired pair..

Y'all got me reminiscing 2003.​

Just messing around a bit...

Huge ups to y'all for the oop for the Sneakersnstuff sale. Absolutely insane that I ordered these on a Monday and they were at my door by Thursday from Sweden (for $10). Logistics always amazed me.
PPU $30
