New Balance 993

I've been blogging a fair bit of New Balance lately which is probably directly related to wearing a lot of new Balance lately. I recently endured a bad sprain on my ankle and having foot problems due to a couple clashes on the soccer pitch and I have had a hard time walking around in some of my leather soled footwear. Fortunately I recently picked up a fresh pair of grey suede 993s and they've been my saving grace. I personally really like the look with fatigue pants, cords or chinos, so I've had no problem wearing them every day for the last week. They are definitely some of the comfiest trainers for walking around town or watching soccer from the sideline.

This model is the quintessential sneaker for the Japanese/Free & Easy set. Daiki wears them!

I respect NB, just don't personally wear them. I have a pair of made in usa team 33's I forget the exact model now but they're boxed up and if I could get a decent amount on ebay they'd already be sold. The shape looks nice from the side, but every other angle for me is a bit off.

Any pictures of the japanese set wearing em'?

The 998 is leaps and bounds much better than this model...........

I treat myself to wearing a comfortable pair of shoes as often as needed. Aesthetically and orthpedically fresh!

I prefer the 574s in navy, but New Balance makes a good sneaker no matter what they look like. http://www.nbwebexpress.com/newbalanceM574NWS.htm

not really a fan of them. If Daiki hadn't started wearing them they wouldn't be on this blog

The 999s are the ultimate (a sneaker collectors grail), then the 998s. The 993 are too tech looking.
