Official New Balance Thread *sizing info for different models on first page*

I have pics of all the new swatches including the mesh. Initial impressions are the Freesia isbgarbage, the tiger Lilly very nice (but it's pretty stiff) and the Barbados cherry is pretty pimp. I'll post all the pics later tonight.
 
Haven't really been in the thread but this caught my eye.




Reminds me of these 530s

I saw those green/black/yellow 574s at the New Balnce store in New York and they were very clean. I was temper to buy them.

Richie, thanks for posting this. Easily the most informative article on the 990 I've read thus far. Always wondered why Philly/DMV showed so much love to the model and now I know. Insane.

Ok I know I'm not the only one who has thought about this before but why doesn't NB update the cushioning in the midsole on their made in usa/uk shoes? I get that its a retro style but the Absorb on the 998 and the Absorb on the running 880 model are two completely different foams. It seems like when it comes to recreating the historic silhouettes they follow the design of the upper to the T but then they always throw some cheap cushioning on it. Considering how much they cost if they could make these more comfortable and actually feel like were like back when they were first made I would assume sales would increase.   
 
 
What are those exactly? I noticed the question was never answered on the last page. I definitely like those.
It's a GR, should hit sales in a few month or maybe a July 4th sale!!

Thanks!
 
The Freesia and Tiger Eye/Lilly are smooth and stiff, more smooth leather/nubuck than suede.
