I never wanted to wear any of my good shoes when we were on the east coast. Much easier to wear stuff out here in the desert.

Ended up grabbing these. Like the hairy suede and the colour. Will feel less shitty about beating them up, and they were more than half the price of the other pair. Time will tell if I regret not getting the first pair..

@jerkules Perfect! I posted some cream colored 990v1 a while back and I have a hard time keeping them clean so I don’t get to wear them as often as I’d like.

@jerkules love those as well

[jerkules]

@SKT i saw yours earlier in the thread, they look really nice with a bit of wear on them. I can imagine they’re a pain to keep fresh looking though.

@Heavy_blue can’t believe I’ve never owned a pair of 574s before!

[SKT]

@jerkules They are a great color too. And where did you find them cause now I think I need some

[Matt]

I like those better.

[jerkules]

@SKT

I got them from endclothing.com , but they were the last pair I believe. Now showing as sold out. The model # is U574RH2, hopefully you might be able to find them on sale somewhere in the US ?

I've had these for a while and tend to cook my shoes so pardon the grime but does anyone happen to know why these 1400hb were sometimes referred to as "catcher in the rye"? I don't see a connection

[goosehd]

@GraemeE My immediate thought was because of the similarity of colours to the cover…probably wrong though.

[GraemeE]

@goosehd shit - I didn't even think of that

I was too busy trying to find some sort of hidden meaning

[SKT]

@jerkules thanks man…now I’m on the hunt

[SKT]

Thanks headed there now

[Matt]

Let me know what you find.

These 576's coming out on 4/20 caught my eye. There is also a pink pair, might have to pull the trigger on the maroons.

@mumonkey72 insane! Will they drop on the NB site?

[jerkules]

@mumonkey72 they look really nice, the pinks are understated and very wearable too! Like them both a lot:
