I think the first e are pretty nice, but the orange and perf suede kinda push the JP4s over the top. They might be the prlerfect mixture that gets me to convert

It should be a prerequisite that every member who contributes to this thread have a pair of v4’s

I talked a lot of trash about the v4s being old man shoes and I was very wrong. With the right colorway, they look
and feel

Sorry. I'll never be converted. I just can't get into them. They have some great colorways, but the silhouette is the epitome of a dad shoe.It should be a prerequisite that every member who contributes to this thread have a pair of v4’s

I just can't get into any of the silos with that webbed kinda look. The ovals that it leaves behind always bug the hell out of me.

Got the 1400JWT in today. Leather is very nice. Toe box is a little more bulky then I would like but whatever for ~ 50 bucks cant really go wrong.

Just trying to get on your level bro!
I got really lucky on that yellow, was trying to make a Steelers match. I was burned on my first NB1 with a different color wheel, the yellow they had was way off! I’ve still never worn that bad pair.

It’s been said before but it’s really just how they’re worn; I mean hey if you don’t F with the silhouette that’s cool it’s all subjective BUT if you just tried a pair on maybe you’d change your mind?

Anyone in here ever intentionally bought a pair of 998s a half size big because they were getting a great deal? Lol
How did you make them fit better? Double sock, extra insole?

I caught a lightly worn pair of grand tourers a half size big for a steal a while back. I have to wear the thickest socks I have to make them work. Even then, there's heel slippage and they're still mildly uncomfortable
I've never tried the double insole or adding an insert, though, so that may be option the next time I wear them.
