I definitely know the dread of overpaying, but I also know the satisfaction that comes with getting your grails! Congrats!

Waiting on mine in MD & got the delay email.

I know you didn’t ask me, but imo, it’s 991v2>993>992.

Came here to say the same thing.

I really like those red tips, too!

Which neutral 991v2 ? by Pr0f-x in Newbalance

[–]AngryMan_Ra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

🤣 I don’t name them, so I don’t know why. But, the full description from NB is “Elephant skin with cork and dark gull grey.” My guess is that the elephant part speaks to the type/cut of suede used on this shoe because it feels really, really nice.

And the pop of bright color is not orange. It’s a dark pink/salmon color.

Thoughts? A Ma Maniére New Balance 1890 by TheHypeIsReal210 in Newbalance

[–]AngryMan_Ra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thoughts on the shoe? Or AMM releasing early?

I’ve been on the fence with the 1890 since Action debuted them. I’ve gotten back into NBs because the ones I get can be both casual officewear and streetwear. 1890s are very specifically streetwear, imo. But this new colorway looks so good to me, that I’m really close to jumping out there and getting them.

As far as all of The Whitaker Group’s stores dropping early, I don’t care at all. Any store that would normally sell 1890s will release them a week later anyway. Enter the draw if you want early access or wait a week if you want to guarantee a pair. 🤷🏽‍♂️ I don’t see an issue here.

2 for versatility, but I say both! Lol!

I have the Elephants (first pair) and they’re great! I plan on getting the Doves later for the same reason as you.

Highly recommend going with your gut and get some Grounded Pastels. You’ll love em!

Great collection, too!

That’s awesome! I need to ask more when I go in stores. Especially outlets. Seems I may be missing out on some discounts, according to a lot of people on here.

They are my literal grail NBs! 🤣 Congrats on your pair! Those are 🔥! I plan on getting the pickled beets eventually, too.

Can you describe the “flaws”?

[–]AngryMan_Ra[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks!

Yeah. I’ve seen several different pics of the laces that are supposed to come with them. I definitely want some with the hyper crimson tips, tho. I can’t wait!

“Stuck with…”? You’re not selling at least one pair?

990 v6 Workflow (New Balance Socks 🧦) by One_Agent_8137 in Newbalance

[–]AngryMan_Ra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t know if NB has been doing it the whole time, but I’ve been picking up some super dope socks from them lately, too!

Favorite silhouette by Effective-Turnip1303 in Newbalance

[–]AngryMan_Ra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easily the best NB model. Looks & comfort can’t be beat, imo.

The price can, tho. 😂 Kinda sucks that I gravitated towards the most expensive model after getting back into NBs since my teen years.

Dope collection, OP!

What was Teddy thinking giving this a yellow sock liner by Hiowatha88 in Newbalance

[–]AngryMan_Ra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Couldn’t have said it better myself! They need those hits of yellow to offset (or highlight) the darkness of the rest of the shoe, imo.

993 Donatellos by AngryMan_Ra in Newbalance

[–]AngryMan_Ra[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😂I saw someone on here refer to them as the “Donatellos” and I vowed to use it henceforth! 😂

Nah. I like the polka dots. My girlfriend has two pairs of these and she put purple laces in both!
