It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I have a friend that works there, so take this with a grain of salt, but it's actually the opposite from what he says. New Balance doing very well for themselves. They do really well in the lifestyle space (not as much in the actual athletic shoes) and "retro" is really in right now so it lines up for them.
Good to hear. Back in my day wearing New Balance shoes to school meant all the black kids in their nice Jordan's were gonna beat my ass
You're just not looking for it, but New Balance has had a resurgence in the last 15 years. And yes, they are popular with the younger generation which started with the older millennials.
New Balance is my shoe of choice. But I have wider feet than most. Nike and Reebok tend to run narrow and I've not been able to wear them in the last 40 years.
Most comfortable pair of sneakers I ever owned was a pair of reeboks back in the mid 1980s, it was like walking on a pillow. I think they still make the line, just have to do some research. But the NB ones I talked about are the 2nd most comfortable I’ve ever owned.
My current pair of walking sneakers are New Balance and they are the best pair I’ve ever had, my next pair will be New Balance.
Their head quarters on the Pike looks like a cruise ship.
