I’ve copped three pairs of NBs in the past 3 months. Not one regret at all. Oh and Richie a real one for pausing the video for his homie to blow his nose instead of letting him go out sad.
I don’t usually side with gatekeepers/gatekeeping, but this video made me sympathize with people who do this for NB. Happy for their recent growth to the mainstream and I want everyone to rock it; new or old, but this video was cringe ESPECIALLY that StockX tip. You can’t tell people to explore then tell them what models to get 😂 Man, wear whatever models, socks, or baggy ass sweats you want with NB. I’ve seen people break these “rules” and make fire fits.
Remember everyone was getting clowned for either wearing New Balances or Sketchers in Middle school. I always fuced with NB’s they hit different honestly 😂
New Balance employee here. Don't worry about not getting orthopedic shoes, they're backordered until 2023. 990v5 is every where please buy them our stock room is gray and I am scared
I love the New Balance 1080v series. The MOST comfortable running shoe in my collection. I am a college runner but they have a great tech wear vibe and aesthetic.
Literally. He’s telling people to branch out and experiment but also telling them to only buy the ones that have stock x listings 😂 hypebeastery at its finest
Yeah being from the DMV and wearing NB’s since the early 90’s on the regular. I was watching with a side eye but they actually did pretty good. I would add stop lacing them tight ass hell and all the way up to the last loop but maybe that’s just us. Seeing the Nike socks with them on the internet was blowing minez but I thought maybe it’s a generational thing.
These guys are just hypebeasts. If you see this, do whatever you want. Don't listen to these dudes they only care about what's on trend. They can't think for themselves.
the beautiful thing about new balance is you can style them so many ways. wear them however you want, there isn't a "definitive" way to wear them. like the whole "can't wear baggy sweatpants with NBs" is such cap, obvious hypebeast vibes here but that's to be expected i guess. basically at this point, i've seen any and all 990s styled in pretty much every single way and look good so don't stress it.
"No streetwear while wearing New Balances" while NB has collabed with BAPE, WTAPS, Palace, etc. Lmao I'd say them and streetwear have a pretty strong history. Just look at how integrated they are into Japanese streetwear
I miss when we ain’t have the internet and you couldn’t just research n look up sauce, drip or what we think koo. You just had to be yoself and make what you got cool. Being yoself and making yo own outta what you got.
Highly recommend you guys get more into the GR Made In USA colorways. One of the biggest reasons why I love NB so much is because they have so many readily available GR colorways. NB is so much more than the limited edition 550 and 2002Rs. Also, did you guys really spend 1/3 of the video telling people to not buy the dad shoes 🤣
THIS! New Balance is a dope brand and with all these "hype" ones I'm left wondering why? There are super nice silhouettes and colourways that you can just buy and these hype ones are boring AF.
This vid is so hype beast 🤦♂️ Richie talking about not rocking new balance and bape, when there’s a bape x NB collab. Plus regular ass NBs are fire as hell too 👌
Well said. Straight disrespectful on the footwear models that made New Balance what it is today just as the 990, 997 and all other made in USA/UK pairs like the 992 and and 991. They even have hype collars on these exact models that have came out recently and are in the spotlight now. Sick of seeing 2002Rs and 550s being the sole purpose people are on New Balance
@@AyeeJayyy love how these guys acting like New Balance guys dont exist. Cant wait for them to move off to the next new thing. I get that their audience is hypebeasts but dont come off as the authority in wearing New Balance.
One of the best videos I’ve seen about new balances 🔥🔥🔥 I got some New balance V5 990 black ones best shoe to wear with slim black sweats and black socks and any tee shirt and jean jacket on top ✅ same with gray ones with gray sweat and white socks
So I won’t cap but I watched your video way back and came up on it again today. Let me just say I bought into the New Balance 2002R natural Indigo/cream colour way and by far my favourite shoes out in the market. New Balance shoes are so comfortable and stylish. Now I have Jordan’s,dunks and more of the hype shoes of course even tho I’m not into the hype stuff. I’m glad I walked into the new balance wave cause I’m more of a guy who goes out of my way to pick things I like not what’s hype or bandwagoning with the people. So thank you to you for posting this video on the New Balance she’s that are in style.
Most comfy shoe that looks cool as hell will always be Asics Gel. Try em out. I agree with all the tips they gave except the shorts above the knee. Im 44 so i grew up in the era of only people dressing like that were cornballs and IU players. Just cant do it.
damn those 2002s on the left are fire . castle rock colorway right? i just bought my 4th pair of 993s but i may save 60 bucks and get the 2002s next go round
Been copping NB balance for years now I personally would never ever wear Nike or addidas with new balance and the style I go for with NB is definitely a grown man streetwear look
Doesn’t even have to be hyped new balance. I’ve worn all black 992s and have gotten compliments at work and when I’m out and about. 990s do look more dadish but I’m comfy all day so idc what anyone thinks 🤷🏻♂️
I say be different stand out from the crowd and f**k what anyone thinks opinions vary and we are all different/dnt get side tracked and down by what people advise /love yourself and dnt waste life 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I definitely agree 💯 i used to only cop nikes and liked the look of the 574s and copped a pair and love them so much ive got 4 of them in different colors 🤣🤣
Please Remind me to put on my long sleeve adidas sweat shirt and my jordan 1 mid top on a basketball shirt send you a picture 😆. It would be the same as buying a nfl nike jersey and wearing puma.
I paid like 50 over retail for the 550 and the grey joints from the protection pack in this video , prices sky rocketed weeks later, the 2002r price jumped for what ever reason I know the seller is mad now lol
NB shoes has been my favorite brands for both casual and running shoes. Now all my shoes are NB made. I wouldn’t have been able to wear them had it been the old me, but I’m out of my comfort zone and NB is my new comfort zone 😃 and my favorite one is NB 997h
Nailed it. Cringey to me too. I'm sick of all these new hyped overused key words, dropped everywhere, that are supposed to mean "cool": Teddy Santis, Amie Leon Dore (who gives a shit???!!!), "collabs", "colorways" . . . the new 990v6 looks like a Skechers, only worse. RIP New Balance. You're quality days are over.
Just some tips and advice that’ll hopefully help you out! What models are you guys feeling lately?!
other than the ALD's and JFG's:
992
993
990v3
990v4
990v5
these are the only ones u need
992's for me
993 ALD Taupe and the new white/green 650R. Both Fuego. Love the rain clouds but they’re way too expensive now :-(
@@bitw434 lmao 🤡
550s
If you feel confident in what you're wearing, just wear it, don't let an opinion sway you

Stop sticking to the same things, but definitely wear them the same way as everyone else.
These videos always make me laugh
Be unique and buy new balances but only the new balances everyone else likes.
@@bsh5311 you gotta understand their target audience is for people/kids who dont know hot to dress and are always asking what they are wearing
As everything. Question of nuances.
I’ve copped three pairs of NBs in the past 3 months. Not one regret at all. Oh and Richie a real one for pausing the video for his homie to blow his nose instead of letting him go out sad.
That was real haha
I love the shift towards unbranded socks, I get em by packs at Walmart instead of the Nike elite ones from back in the day 💀
Uniqlo has some good ones as well!
Stance is decent
Hanes socks are goated lmao
Unbranded socks ain’t nothing new lol
Hanes socks, are too hard
9 months later the 574 are my new favorite shoe. Coming from air maxes and Jordan’s - best shoe ever man.!
I don’t usually side with gatekeepers/gatekeeping, but this video made me sympathize with people who do this for NB.

Man, wear whatever models, socks, or baggy ass sweats you want with NB. I’ve seen people break these “rules” and make fire fits.
Fr fuck the rules make ur own style. This video is made for bot mfs w no self expression😭😭
Remember everyone was getting clowned for either wearing New Balances or Sketchers in Middle school. I always fuced with NB’s they hit different honestly 😂
I agree bro, I had 990 v3s and other new balances, so we been on this

These guys know nothing about NB’s or fashion…TRUST me
I only like 574 NB shoes and i rock em with no show socks cause they look best with casual clothing. Gives that semi preppy look
I got a pair of the Aime Leon Dore 993 at retail for my first ever New Balance, and it’s one of my favorite pairs in my collection rn

nice, the brown or white ones?

Hypebeast guide, not a sneakerhead one. Quality content either way 🙏🏾
lol these two are hilarious. New balance for sure is the best brand out right now. Quality, style and comfort leagues ahead of the competition.
Johnny's recent style is fire 🔥🔥
I’m from the DMV so we be on nothing but new balances and everything Richie said is 100% correct
Except everybody loves the 990s, including gramps.

Born and raised and Richmond VA and remember very clearly when NB started popping esp the 574s classic silhouette right there .
💯 I got some 990v5s for back to school shopping and they comfy af and they make me 2 inches taller dmv been on them
DMV is ahead of the game rocking the NB's. We already know which ones to rock and we rock em well. Add a pair of slouch socks with those.
Still regret not copping the protection pack before resell popped off 🤒
Same thing with me and what’s even worse is how they were sitting on certain sites ☹️
*Refined Future Pack
@@JostenDooley they never were sitting lmao they sold out instantly
Don’t get caught up in the hype.

These guys are just hypebeasts. If you see this, do whatever you want. Don't listen to these dudes they only care about what's on trend. They can't think for themselves.
I never really worry about what other people feeling shoe wise or style . Rock what you enjoy . .
the beautiful thing about new balance is you can style them so many ways. wear them however you want, there isn't a "definitive" way to wear them. like the whole "can't wear baggy sweatpants with NBs" is such cap, obvious hypebeast vibes here but that's to be expected i guess. basically at this point, i've seen any and all 990s styled in pretty much every single way and look good so don't stress it.
The last one is the best advice on here. I’d brushed new balance off for a long time and it was definitely a mistake.
Showing the 997s on the monarch comparison is crazy
I wear Nike socks with any shoe i don’t give a damn 😂😂😂😂
johnnys cardigan fits are fiiiiireee
Love the 997s, got the made in America ones. Much rather spend that money on good quality shoes than the quality on some of these Jordans….
best model
Cozy grown man vibezzzzzz
"No streetwear while wearing New Balances" while NB has collabed with BAPE, WTAPS, Palace, etc. Lmao I'd say them and streetwear have a pretty strong history. Just look at how integrated they are into Japanese streetwear
Great tips fellas. I’ve been rocking with NB since 2015 and they’ve always been solid. Respect from the Bay Area, Ca.
Ain’t nothing wrong with 574 some of them still 🔥
