  • Sometimes you see a sneaker you just NEED (Don't take that too literally). I knew these were overpriced but I copped because they're one of my favorite new balance sneaker releases of 2023. Here's an unboxing and review of these beautiful made in USA new balance which are part of a limited edition collection and a brand new retro running model. Comfortable? Very! Dope summertime color way? Yup! Expensive and overpriced? Yessir! I featured a lot of affordable and cheap options under $100 but these NB's were a must so I broke my sneaker buying rules and bought them. Hype isn't too crazy so they likely won't be reselling.

    Let me know some shoes you've paid way too much for! Were they essentials or hyped up collabs from Stockx? I think the Teddy Santis X new balance season 3 for 2023 is going to be amazing and this new balance 990v6 macadamia nut / magenta purple is one of the best colorways! (Crazy name!) enjoy the unboxing and on feet review.

  • @DylanLey
    @DylanLey Год назад +2

    Definitely a very fire colorway. I copped them for myself and am currently awaiting their delivery. With current inflation and the fact that the V6 uses both Encap AND Fuelcell in the midsole justifies the $200 retail for the core colorways. I feel like a $10 upcharge would've been more appropriate for the Teddy Pairs. $220 is definitely pricey. Doesn't help that it will probably go on sale in boutiques months later. But I'm definitely with you with having to have these! Too fire not to have in the summer season!

    I’m with you on the price hike, but I don’t think it has anything to do with the colorway. I bought my all grey 993s off NBs website a year ago for $185, today if I wanted to grab another pair it would run me $225! They’re just increasing prices on some of the made in USA models I think.

    I knew the shoe went on mega clearance ages ago unfortunately I wasn't in any region that had on em sale and they didn't online. I have been collecting all of the SI-18 international collabs to catch em all so to speak. Only missing Ghostbusters.
