    What a flex! 6 pair of 550🤑. I’m super happy to own one pair: the grey ALD’s. The best of the bunch imo. I did buy them in a size 10, quite snug but after breaking in it feels way better luckily! Keep it going my guy! Great video as always. Peace ✌🏽

    Love this model and have two GRs of them (Shifted Red and Multicolor). I also recently copped on Clearance the Adidas Torsion Edbergs and they give me a huge 550 vibe without spending much (yellowed soles included)!

    Does a regular GR 550 have good leather or is it just collabs? 🤣 I have to tape all of my shoe boxes too, its because we have them stacked on top of each other.

    • @guynkicks

    What would you suggest for someone who just can’t decide what new balance he should start with?

    • @guynkicks
      @guynkicks  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can grab a 550 but you won’t experience great comfort and quality. Not to bash the 550, it’s just that it’s not the most comfortable NB. Go with a 990 v2, V3, V4, or v5. 991 or 992. This would be a great start.

    So I’m a tts 11M … I bought 3 550’s in 10.5… all alds… sprite fit tight but broke in really well after a couple of wears… the ald grey and the ald navy fit super tight around the toe box… I haven’t worn them yet because I have 650’a(navy and blue 😂) coming tts 11. Also just purchased the gr “Chicago” in A tts 11…

    • @guynkicks
      @guynkicks  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah the fit on 550s is weird. Safest bet is TTS. I went TTS on the 650s hopefully that should work and with the high top the heel slippage should go away.
