New Balance Overtakes Sneaker Culture (& Steals The Market from Nike and Adidas)
While many OG sneakerheads will always stick to Nike and Air Jordan we are seeing a definite switch in sneaker preference amongst sneakerheads of the younger generation. We are welcoming new subcultures to our community who have a strong preference for Adidas & New Balance.
While Adidas and Nike are killing their own hype, New Balance is carefully establishing in sneaker culture. With original collaborations with Aime Leon Dore, Salehe Bembury and Stone Island, in combination with good quality sneakers and fresh designs the brand is becoming more and more popular and respected!
Thank you for being part of our road to 10k subs!

I only wore adidas PrimeKnit/Boost shoes for almost 10 years. I tried on a pair of 2002Rs and am now on the NB train. Most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn

I hear this more often about the 2002r, i personally dont own a pair but maybe i should add one

Maybe they got tired of the Nike and Adidas choices that doesn't make them unique to their contemporaries.

Yeah that’s a good one! ☝🏼 Especially Nike is the same for years

Great NB report! If I have to correct you on only one thing: the original NB 990 from 1982 was actually the first sneaker to sell for $100- not the 992 (The 992 came out in 2006, a year b4 the iPhone)

I had a really nice 574 about 18 years ago and got into some new balance trainers after tearing my ankle and foot tendons in Shox. I haven’t really worn New Balance since I had that 574 and really like traditional Converse all stars in wide width and Jordan 1 highs and traditional Timberlands. Two of those are Nikes, which were always my favourite before my injury. Basically I think I like wearing models that have been around for 40 plus years and haven’t changed much

Im not sure why but if you analyze what we all wearing its almost only silhouettes that are existing for decades. Would it be because we are just used to it?

Skechers is Number 3 in sales after nike and adidas. I wonder why?

What about the new balance 577 kakkerlak?

I always looked at New Balance were like Dodge Ball shoes. There were a couple of stinky kids that wore them in jr. high PE class. I thought the leaning N looked lazy as far as a symbol goes.
