sneakermane, when did these release? Heard nothing about them.
NEED these.
Also, have you worn the blue 990's yet? What do you think about their comfort? I have 'em too and expected better cush.

imo 990s are the most comfortable new balance right after 1700s

Glad to see this thread moving along slowly, but steady.
Haven't bought a pair of NB's in awhile due to more important matters, but I'll be damned if I don't browse the web every day for 'em.
Nice pickups sneakermane....like the variety.

Came across the Black 2002s on sale for $119.
Blacks look way better than the grey pair to me. Considering if I should pull the trigger.

^^^Yes it is. And the laces appear to be waxed. I don't know what I'm waiting for. Will probably cop tomorrow.

Not the grey pair....the black/white pair. A local Mom & Pop shop has them on sale.
Btw....I'm not a fan of the grey pair. Wouldn't even cop for $119.
EDIT....laces are not waxed. But quality is still on point on the black 2002s.
