I recently learned that Mike Tyson wears the classic New Balance dad shoes.  He swears by them and says they are super comfortable, nothing else like them.

I gotta say, I'm New Balance curious. I'm not going to wear them though and look like that. Is there anything else out there that feels good for a whole day but doesn't look like that?

I like a clean plain pair of white sneakers. It feels like summer here already in California. I wore my white Air Force 1s this weekend, both days, and my feet are hurting and I'm thinking about looking for alternatives.

I won't wear white shoes, get anything on them and they are dirty forever.  I don't have the energy to try to keep shoes immaculate.

Isn't NB just a cheaper running shoe that looks like running shoes look?

That being said, I wear New Balance 574s, because I'm not old enough to sport the above New Balances yet. They are very comfortable. Need to get a new pair for the spring.

If you have a wide foot you wear New Balance or you don't wear athletic shoes.

Big hole in the market others don't see.

If the guy on the grill ain’t wearing a pair of NBs then find the guy who is and give him grill duty.

I wear New Balance because they have widths and the same size fits, sight unseen, across the entire brand... they make some quality tennis shoes that are made in USA, but they aren't cheap..

I live on New Balance. Know what size I wear, so they all fit right.

Didn't know they were un-cool.

They got ridiculed as “old white guy shoes” for coming out in support of Trump’s domestic manufacturing policies.

His latest statements about life, youthful stupidity, and what matters in life are surprisingly rational, sane, not from someone you'd associate with professionally getting punched in the head.  I think he got woke.

I've been wearing new balance shoes for years. Super comfortable for sneakers. They last about 3-6months before the insoles go to shit.

LOL...and the 574 is one of my all time favorite shoes.  I have a pair on now.

574s are still wildly popular among young folks.  I've been wearing them since HS.  I hate when 574s get lumped into the White NB wearer category.

I like a pair of white shoes, these are simple and clean, don't look cheap and don't scream anything ridiculous. A young lady at AutoZone complimented me on them today.

I’m 45 and have never nor will ever even try on a pair. I wear Vans (first pair I was 10) Under Armour, and Nike for casual. Business casual, I have 8 pairs of Clarks, I wear Reef flip flops around town, and Keen Sandals when summer hiking.

New Balance shoes are embarrassing so are white calf tube socks....

They are.  Same guys that are over weight, tuck in their solid colored T-shirt, glasses, side part, high wasted mom jeans and you guessed it, New Balance shoes.
