Having grown up in massachussetts,my style is a lil different from most. I remember wearing Docksiders,Eastlands,and New Balance as a youngin. Lets just say i my style was heavily influenced by the suburbs. One of my favorite shoes though were New Balance's,i loved the 996's,1300's,576's,and the 574's. One a recent trip to Japan i kind od'd. One day ill show you all some of my sneaker collection,but for now ill show you these. New Balance has been coming with some ill kicks for a while now. The new school sneaker head really isnt up on them,which makes it better for the rest of us. As for new b's,as my man Ralphie used to call em,ive been a fan since day one. I actually used to hustle them in college. If you dont believe me ask Clark Kent and Biz Mark.
