That nike flagship store in wisma only lasted a year. They even had the Jordan 6 black varsity red which really is a GR.

The only ID they had were for their t-shirts.

Hi ah hui, will these be released in local NB stores?

 

[silentears]

my pair came with a brown box.

so blue box means the design is from US but made elsewhere? correct?



do some googling on colour matching.

it also boils down to the colour of your top as well.

black is a safe colour as jeans are usually dark.

white is safe but like you mentioned it gets dirty easily, but I still own 1 or 2 white shoes for matching purpose.

grey, dark brown or brown in general is also easy to match.

blue is quite safe, those dark blue

red depends on the shade of it

imo, stay away from yellow, neon, orange, silver base shoes. small details or secondary tones in those colours are still ok. unless you can pull them off

Jia liat sia, I only got 1 pair of this light brown Chuck Taylor with black lacing.

I realize abit ugly man..

Any better brands to introduce? Not to too altas one, i using for school nia.

that kind of light brown quite often seen on red wing shoes, so it depends how you match, most probably with a light shade of blue. Black or dark blue jeans will be hard to match with it, a darker shade of brown will be better.

Yeah, quality isn't comparable to a brand like N&F, but you do get what you pay for and I personally think their jeans aren't that bad

You have to check the euro sizing to see whether it's de same..

i cross-referenced with US men and korean size. so i picked women US 9.5 to match my men size.

is this even an appropriate measure?

i bought this pair of shoes.

Amazon.com: New Balance Women's WL574 Rugby Fashion Sneaker,Red,9.5 B US: Shoes

so i bought its 9.5 women

usually i buy US 8 man or Korean 254 or 257

do you think my feet would fit in?

all the sudden hype and craze for NB and Asics lol

The hype for NB and ASICS were always there since like 1980s. These are all runners from the olden days..

It's just that Singaporeans are slower of the hype cos the account for asics are not here currently and nb shoes are just too normal and common here.. and not everybody willing to pay at least $200sgd for a pair of runners excluding shipping cost.

The same thing happens when redwings and nudies were so hype last year when I own them like awhile back ardy...

The truth hurts. So let me just say, many people in Singapore or even asking abt nb shoes in this thread are new to the game and asking for those older collections of nb 574 are just the stepping stones to bigger interest in those what we called hype and heat..

Real reason why not popular in Singapore: Association of these 2 brands with our dear SAF.

That said, I wish they still print the "Property of SAF" for the ASICS shoes. Can sell overseas as special military collaboration edition.
