Hehe, yes indeed. Hate to break it to you but I walk to SNS in about 2 minutes from home, haha. It's really great and the staff, wow. Prime fire..
 
dont think the laces are two colours. Website says that it also comes with a set of orange laces. So im assuming one is tan and one is orange.

Haha I wish @Harry but only Stunna keeps burning the thread down :smokin :smokin
 
Can somebody school me on the Anniversary 990's?
I'm looking at the tech sheets and not seeing anything "special"?
Is it just the limited production numbers that justify the $200 price tag?

Just out of curiosity does anyone here have a pair of 1300JP from 2010? I'm kinda new to NB and when I saw these the other day online and was shocked by how nice they are. Apparently they retailed for like 320$? Anyways I just wanted to know how exclusive this shoe was and how many people on here managed to get a pair of these beautiful kicks

not sure what the retail price in canada was, but in the US it was $200 at most spots. maybe the $320 price tag was converted from the retail price in asia or other markets?
they werent really exclusive from what i remember. huf (when they still had a store) even had a late restock on them and put them online. i remember regretting not getting extra pairs. it's almost 2015 so hopefully we can all get them again lol.

Agreed.  I actually like the colorway, but that shape is nasty, IMO.  Something just looks off.  And I'm not even a shape nazi like that.  $$ saved for me.

Those UA 1500s are a little lackluster IMO. Just got the Milans in and definitely think they look better. Pass.

Definitely agree - if you're looking for a shoe in that colorway the Milans are the way to go.

@superblyTRIFE - I couldn't put my finger on why I wasn't feeling them, but I think you said it best - the shape just seems "off." maybe it's just the pics I've seen, or the fact that the single color makes it look "undefined," but they just seem odd.

Anyway, I forget who I was talking with (I think it was Kevinzhang) a while or so back, about how the NiceKicks 1500's have been on eBay for RAPE prices ($300+ for VNDS), but I managed to cop a pair yesterday for $160 in basically deadstock condition. Nothing too exciting compared to what some of you guys have been picking up lately (ie. Stunna making my jaw-drop...), but I really, really like the colorway, although I remember hearing that the shape is off compared to earlier 1500's

Agreed, 2015 is only 2 years away! Calenders are marked.
