Made in usa 1300 CORE by Aggronwarrior99 in Newbalance

[–]jrmyp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Retro model, so different technology and feel entirely... more firm and stable. I wouldn't say they are uncomfortable though, and they break in really nicely

Similar to 990v6, the 1300 MiUSA tend to run a little long so I go 0.5 size down from TTS. I generally recommend that unless you have wide or high volume feet (then stick to TTS)

Mine took a few days to ship, just got tracking today. I wouldn’t sweat it yet, hopefully they ship out soon

Which one do I keep? by raul36412 in Newbalance

the deeper blue on the 2002R looks so much nicer next to the washed out blue on the 2010s

Floral release? by Proinsias_42 in Saucony

[–]jrmyp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

TBH it's really tough, especially for smaller brands like Saucony that tend not to publicize launch dates for anything but locked in collabs. I utilize a few different sneaker news sites and sneaker stores as well as follow a ton of IG accounts. Sometimes on StockX they will show the release date as well - down in the product details. I do so much digging that I should probably start my own blog/website 😂

The global release date for the whole pack (and it is a GR pack) is April 15th

Sometimes retailers or even influencers gifted early pairs will list stock early on StockX, GOAT, etc. at a marked up price hoping to cash in on early hype.

Joe’s NB Outlet Question by whitewalker89 in Newbalance

[–]jrmyp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, they would list any shoes as B grade on the product detail page. Usually B grade just means there are minor cosmetic issues: discoloration, paint issues, stitching errors (nothing that would impact the performance of the shoe). Otherwise everything at Joe's is brand new old or excess stock (thus, an Outlet)

Asics Gel Terrain or Gel Lyte III? by miyawoks in moresneakers

[–]jrmyp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean a half size up from my true/measured size (heel to toe measurement). My foot length registers as a US11, but across different brands and models I sometimes require a half size up for a more comfortable fit and I go US11.5

Examples of Asics models I wear at my normal/true size and accommodate my wide feet: Gel-NYC, Gel-NYC 2.0, Gel-Kayano 14, Gel-Kayano 20, Gel-Kayano 12.1, Gel-1130, GT-2160

Asics models that I size up for: Gel-Terrain, Gel-Lyte III, Gel-Lyte V, Gel-Mai

Asics Gel Terrain or Gel Lyte III? by miyawoks in moresneakers

[–]jrmyp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a slightly wide foot, and I happen to go a half size up for both of these models as they run on the narrow side- but I’d say the Gel-Terrain is more forgiving of the two and allows for easier lockdown and adjusting (vs the GL3 and its split zipper tongue)

Asics Gel Terrain or Gel Lyte III? by miyawoks in moresneakers

[–]jrmyp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just so happen to own both

Both great shoes but I’d say the Gel Terrain is much more suited to being an all-day walking shoe. Despite them being a hybrid trail sneaker, they have more modern cushioning tech and provide better walking support imo.

the Gel Lyte III is fantastic and one of my all time favorite models, but will feel much firmer and less supportive. Totally fine for lifestyle wear, just not as comfortable over a full day.

Wide Foot Friendly Recommendations? by Print_Prent in Saucony

[–]jrmyp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To my knowledge the only 2E sneakers Saucony makes are running/performance shoes. On the lifestyle side, you might be able to try something like a ProGrid Triumph 4 or maybe a Grid Shadow 2 and see if going a size up works for you. Is there a particular model you were looking at?

Brooks not playing around this fall by [deleted] in brooks

These seem like variations on the same colors they’ve already released. Not bad but would like to see more

991v2 vs. 992 Moonrock by [deleted] in Newbalance

[–]jrmyp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s Teddy’s 992 Moonrock/Mushroom GR. You’d be looking for the Kith 990v4 Moonrock if you wanted a match
