    It’s kinda funny that it’s only an American phenomenon about dad look of NB.
    Here in Europe they considered as a sick looking shoe.

      At skateparks you can see skaters of any age wearing any random NB Numeric, but I think maybe Christian gets the vibe because of the white trainers (non NB skate shoes) so many dads wear in the US lol

      I love the new balance skate team, and i think that has completely changed my mindset on the new balance N so when i look at them i think they look absolutely sick. Also the fact that many young ppl wear new balances now so my brain can distinguish between the old dad shoe and the skate shoe

    I skated three pairs of the 440H in a row. I liked them, but they got a little floppy for my tastes after a few weeks. Definitely broke the laces in them. It looks like you didn't skate them long enough to fully judge the durability. 😄

  • @getbuckgetbuck
    @getbuckgetbuck Год назад +4

    Solid honest review! I've also considered slashing the N off every pair of the 440 highs I've had. I'm on my 5th pair and they're 🤌 but I agree they're not legendary. Prob a better high top cup out there (Trudger) but these are still solid shoes.

    I am interested to see what the New Balance Tiago 808s skate like. I’m hoping they are as good or better than the 1010s. They look like they wouldn’t have great board feel. I also feel they don’t really have a dad show vibe.

  • @titorivera9380
    @titorivera9380 Год назад

    Had this model in a different colorway, skated good but I had to give them too a homie after a month of skating them. I have wide feet and they hurt the sides of them, they didn't break in like I thought they would.

  • @ZTFlames
    @ZTFlames Год назад +2

    New Balance have that insole issue cause they use the same tech on their running shoes that have more support. Even though they dull out the most of the standard wickening for sweat in the newer numeric insoles, the material feels skiddish and stagnent after sweatin in them.
    Cleaning out the insoles with water cleans up all the dead skin cells and sweat that thin your feet from skidding but the impact control is not in the insole but the outsole C-Cap construct.
    I love N.B. for the longevity though. They are the strongest for skating so far that I can tell.

      For sure. Idk why people even skate Nike's anymore. I get ollie holes in Nike SB Blazers within a couple of sessions. Meanwhile NB 306's have lasted me over 2 months!! Only problem is the sole doesnt last very long on those. I have the 440's atm, and they seem to hold up great aswell. Especially in the sole. They are slightly wide, and as mentioned in this review, the insole is... terrible. I put Nike SB Blazer insole in mine

    @kirillkolesnikov566 Год назад +17

    I loved 440 highs until i rolled my ankle in them. Since they have no rigid plastic in the heel the mesh and leather get really soft when sweaty and they start to feel kinda like a sock so it gets easy to roll your ankle. They are very grippy, more so than Nike in my opinion.

    This is one of your more 'meh' reviews. You must've been drinking too much from the Nike punch bowl as of late since the aesthetics of a shoe is subjective at best and I feel like you put too much stress onto it. Performance comes first when choosing a shoe, especially one that gets as severely thrashed as a skate shoe. Honestly, your shoe reviews from way back are more unbiased than a lot of your new ones. 😬
