My Favorite Sneakers of 2013

New Balance 990 "Boston Marathon" 2013

New Balance 990 “Boston Marathon” 2013

I’ve become a big fan of the marathon specific releases over the past decade and this year’s New Balance 990 for the Boston Marathon is not only beautiful, but it also serves as a tribute to the tragic events surrounding this year’s race. To me, these are the epitome of Boston Strong.

    Definitely agree with you on the SNS dmx run. Still looking for a second pair.

    What’re your thoughts on frank the butchers 10|15 pair?

        Definitely I was geeked when I got my pair in the mail. The materials that have been used on the Reebok’s this year have been insane. And the cordura material I thought was a nice touch.

        Yes!!! Packer still has a few pairs left in my size and debating to pull the trigger. I have to get my kamikazes first though… That’s my 7th grade Jr high school memory pair lol. I damn near fell out of my seat when vashe posted that they were going back into production.
