NB has traditionally been the frumpy brand which caters to old coots. Nothing wrong with that, and maybe they've youthend their image in recent years. :)

Well, "Stuff White People Like" is a satirical blog that makes fun of liberal, urban hipster yuppies, run by a guy who is admittedly a liberal, urban hipster yuppie himself, and the list is hysterically spot-on in most cases, so there ya go.

To quote Johnny Carson...”I did not know that”.
I’ll be picking me up a pair tomorrow.
Thanks for the info.

Merrell’s gear is definitely good stuff.

All of my clothes from them have held up well.

I started a couple years back since they are (mostly) made in American. Still wearing my first pair. And will continue to buy.

No. a STUPID marketing move. Ideology has NO BUSINESS in the boardroom.

I’ve been buying directly from NB for years because they carry my (slightly smaller) size. I’m about ready for some winter garb!

I’ve been buying New Balance for years. Good quality and they have the extra wide widths I need.

I’ve bought only New Balance for more years than I can remember.

They hold up really well.

The pair I was in flood waters in last October are in good shape still.

13’s in the shops aren’t easy to come by. On-line is my way of shoe shopping.

I don’t know how New Balance stays in business. Their shoes last for years.

Looks like I’d better hurry and order mine or they’ll be out of stock!

Been buying New Balance for years. They are the only reasonably priced shoe I can find that comes in 4E.

I’m a loyal customer and had just bought 2 pair this week even before the Left had a hissy fit.
