Much respect to NB!! You gotta give them credit for superior craftmanship and top quality materials!That’s why they last for ages…Beats the crap out of $200 Nikes with crack paint and Jordans that fall apart after 6 months, made in sweatshops by 10-year old Vietnamese kids…don’t want to sound like a hater (I got 10x more Nikes than NBs) but you can honestly feel the difference just by touching the shoes!

Thank you Mr Roc; deliciously informative and a delight to see English craftsmen and women at their work. Tradition, talent and technique are evidently prized hallmarks of this brand. If only it were possible for all sneaker companies to lavish such care and common sense on their products (I hear a blizzard of rotten tomatoes being hurled at Jordan Brand and perhaps a exploding cumquat being ignobly thrust down the trousers of whoever decided to make the new Jordan I’s predominantly a mid-cut; also, grown-men do not wear polka-dots unless they work in children’s television or are itinerant clowns down on their luck). Now, New Balance would you be so kind as to retro the Pride 991 & 999, the ‘James Worthy’s’, that would receive a hearty three cheers.

G-Roc you the man…I haven’t watched the video yet (my fish is done) but I know I’m gonna enjoy this one. Can’t beat the Made in England joints…I saw another video elsewhere on how they were made; pretty impressive.

Wow, I didn’t know there was 27 pieces in a New Balance shoe. You’d never be able to guess by looking at them.

^Thank you Backroad. Not saying everyone that watched it will comment, but I’m glad you enjoyed it. I know some folks don’t rock NB, but this is the type of video you don’t see everyday.
