    Ive been using my rich paul 550s almost everyday for the past year or so (whenever they dropped). And they’ve aged beautifully. The leather has more of a wrinkle type aging process as opposed to my vast grey dunks that i used for a wedding 2 weeks ago and warped like crazy💀

    Knew it was better leather, but surprised it wasn't by much. I think it's cause the construction of the sneaker is just so top-tier, it was hard to believe otherwise. Great review though. Hope one day NB decides to make a Made in US version of the 550 so we could compare GR, collabs and MADE versions of the sneaker.

      Hey @RoseAnvil i know that you have A LOT of requests on what shoes/boots you should review next but i really recommend to review some portuguese shoe brands. Portugal shoe quality is on the same level of italian and spanish dress shoes, we use very high quality leather and our shoes are all handmade and well crafted. As a portuguese it really frustrates me how underrated our shoes are compared to our european neighbours, when we have really high quality with mostly fair prices.

    Preston you know that the real reason that people pay these prices and more for ALD is because of the exclusivity in the name, and bragging rights.

The originals of both were nice shoes with soft leather. The modern variants are horrid. The leather was as cheap looking and feeling as could be and the shoes were so stiff I can't imagine how uncomfortable they would be.

    from the drawing it doesnt look like tucking the upper a little under the board actually does anything at all, as the upper is not stitched to anything inside other than to the outsole. in fact, with strobel the construction seems more appropriate as it provides both flexibility and additional stitching inside (to the "sock") ?

    Thank you for this. New Balance is not only shit in quality/material, it is also shit in terms of design, etc. That is one brand I would stay away from beside Skechers.

    For the 550s you mentioned that the tongue was flimsily stitched down with a single stitch. Is it the same story for 650?

    Should cut apart some of NB’s performance lines, especially the More v4s

    I love the ALD 650s. Can you compare the 650 ALDs to the GR 650s that New Balance are putting out?

    You should maybe analyze the BB550WEA cause there is no coating, on the leather.

    Really liked the 550, but tried it on, dissapointing, the puma slipstreams were more comfortable.

    Do it for the regular 650…I also think it’s arbitrary. I’ve had expensive shoes last me the same exact time frame as cheaper material shoes. You’re gonna get 2-3 years out of a pair of shoes even the 200 dollar Jordan’s regardless of the leather. It’s when you go to crap brands at Walmart that you start to see a quality difference. They do have good work boots though.
