New Balance

those are pretty rad @Oaktavia
I think you also just saved yourself 600$ or whatever for the new ultra limited dip dyed indigo 1500's they're going to release soon
love how those shoe lace ends trapped the dye too

[GardenState]

@Oaktavia I love these!

[SKT]

@Oaktavia really really cool. It will be fun to see how the dye evolves too. Keep us posted

@GardenState @SKT @pechelman I just am now seeing these replies, I had this topic on "ignore". I think I went Ignore Happy a while ago and ended up doing so on too many topics.

This pair shrunk after dying them they scrunch my toes now when I put them on. Even after wearing around and loosing the laces up. Huge bummer...but I love how they turned out.

[pechelman]

no worries @Oaktavia
Bummer they shrunk. What size were they originally and how much length did they loose? Still surprised it lost any length with it all being mounted on rubber/foam sole that's stable.

[Oaktavia]

@pechelman they are/were size 12, the width is what has shrunk, my little toes no longer have the room they once had.

[pechelman]

ah, interesting. I wonder if you crammed in a shoe tree with a bit of something wrapped around the tight spot and then sprayed it locally to get it a bit wet if you could stretch them back out

[Oaktavia]

@pechelman That may work, I would need to get some trees.

[GardenState]

@Oaktavia I completely forgot about this as well. Now I'm back to looking for interesting New Balances to buy. The Bembury ones are nice but there are some others on my radar too

[Oaktavia]

@GardenState I have to admit I love checking every now and then for new NBs. I am partial to the made in USA or UK line. I want a pair of all black ones.
