Ive owned a pair for about 5 years and Ive only worn them like twice. They look just like these: same color

I have a lot of grey shirts that would match, and of course you could rock a black shirt as well

    New Balance is some Baltimore ? ? wear every color here. But you cant rock them ugly ? that you posted they gotta be 498's, 993's, or 992's! Even the 587's are cool.

    Yeah I remember i was in Miami in 09' and a DC chick came up to me and asked if i was from Baltimore or DC and i asked her how did she know and she said cuz those two cities always wear NB.

    Idk when DC started wearing them but ? been rocking them up here since the gray 992's dropped. I think it started from the jails foreal cuz every ? over the jail used to want a pair of the Gray 992's.

    Most likely the ? started at the sametime, DC only 20-30 min down 95.

    Those are for running and working out type ? .

    The casual type NB's are dope, I put em up there with low top shell toes and more comfortable.

    Yo, am I the only one that feels like shoes like New Balances and Air Maxxes should only be worn while running/playing sports?

    574's and 1400's are the only decent looking ones.

    yeah because they only company that consistently makes shoes in my width...4e-6e so Its the only athletic shoe I wear..they got a casual line under the dunham name im bout to start rocking..the shoes looks just as good as any other brand and to me its more about comfort than whats hot.

    I agree with the bolded, I think I'm one of the minority who think Foams and The Jordan Cool Greys are ugly. Still wouldn't wear New Balances outside a gym though

    I've worn 991/2/3's since the mid-90s and probably always will. Most comfortable shoes around. 580s are cool too.

    Not a big fan of 574's but I like the marketing approach NB is taking here -- http://t.co/SzCLrmc. Plus, most cats would buy the 574 since it's one of the cheaper models. Customize it and go knowing nobody else has those joints.
