It’s kinda crazy to see skaters like Reynolds on NB, & Gino on Asics, but I’m glad they’re still out here getting new deals and sponsors regardless! 🔥

[@ieatplanets7086]

Pro-colorway, according to the local shop by me he is still working on his pro model. May be another year or two before it gets released.

[@adrianmilton_]

This review was sick, Reynolds is doing big things over at the Numeric division of New Balance. Love to see it.

[@DavidBluetile]

Thanks! Yes I think he’s going to knock it out of the park when his pro shoe finally drops

[@adrianmilton_]

Should be a sick pair of shoes.

[@tonysmith5878]

YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!! THESE ARE GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!

[@burgerboss8903]

This dude such a vibe, major props to u dawg

[@DavidBluetile]

dude. thank you. haha thats super nice.

[@dizzle1119]

Nice kicks. I've taken a hiatus from sneakers for the past 3-4 months (was using my extra funds to build a ridiculous home audio system)...but I'm ready to start pilin' up the shoes again. I might start with these....

[@joelybgood]

You couldn't have matched your shirt with these shoes better if you tried. Spot on. Of course this shoe is pretty stellar and I love the laces too. Pretty sick indeed. I was surprised to see Andrew go to NB but I'm glad he did. Great review as always! All the best! Gabby from DC❤️

[@tonysmith5878]

YOU KNOW NEW BALANCE CAN DO A WHOLE LOTTA DAMAGE WITH THAT SHOE!!!! THEY COULD TAKE THAT LINE AND GO THE NIKE SB ROUTE WITH LOTS AND LOTS OF COLORWAYS AND MATERIALS....I SEE GOOD THANGS COMING INTO THAT PARTICULAR SHOE.

[@juan355]

the brown is so fire shoes fit for The Boss

[@TheAdaptiveMaritimer]

That looks like Andrew's Emerica Reynolds, bringing back some classic style from the past

[@JToDoap]

These are so harrd the color way bouts hit for the fall

[@franciscoramirez9867]

The color doesn't blow me away but I'll probably get em since Reynolds is one of my favs. I like that it says Reynolds on the tongue too

[@2saddads]

I miss the Emerica Baker days so much but im glad the boss is still making shoes even if its just colorways

[@DavidBluetile]

I think evolving is key

[@bucky89price85]

Just ordered a pair last night from Bluetile. Thank you guys!

[@Itsbobbbby]

what a gorgeous pair of kicks

[@DavidBluetile]

Amen

[@ZaBUSSAKILLEM]

Just bought me a pair of the 480 in the orange color way, im gonna say I prefer sKting these then sbs. More board feel in my opinion and tbh they look clean and feel so comfortable, also I had the Emerifa reynolds and they have the same feel but more room for me I’m an 8-8.5

[@juan355]

yeah, just got the 480 as well and they are excellent dunk alternatives

[@johnautry2711]

🔥🔥🔥

[@MageeKicks]

I copped these after watching this video and shredz shop review

[@DavidBluetile]

Dope. Let us know what you think of them when you get them in hand

[@MageeKicks]

@@DavidBluetile they are awesome looking but I haven’t skated them. New Balance restocked on there website so I was able to get a pair but now I’m scared to wreck them right away if it turns out they are super limited.

[@ErwinPrerajr-sk6pn]

Did you ever get a pair of the new Muskas?

[@MarshallLundberg]

Such a sick colorway

[@420KMK]

Yassss.WHERE THE MUSKAS

[@Mr.paint123]

NB are good and grippy but the down side to the shoe is where the calcaneus part of the foot and shoe meet and how quickly it wears down (NB needs to add better protection there)

[@ByTheGrave]

Best colourway for sure

[@LonnieHutchinson90]

So sick my favorite this year

[@ulukalakar]

It is a shame that he still hasn't got a proper pro-shoe. Same thing when he was on Vans. I think he has much more to offer then just a brown color.

[@DavidBluetile]

It just takes time. Vans was never going to give him a shoe because they had too many guys on the team in line for shoes. 2025 …. Reynolds shoe. 🤞

[@jeff5777]

i was waiting for you to review these cause i really want to cop

[@crownedinterror9]

If y'all don't pick it up, it's mine 😂. Love it.

[@damienlahoz]

These shot up in price quick, $300+ in my size

[@GregMuniz7]

Beautiful shoe

[@apo911]

should I go .5 size up in these? I might have a little bit wider feet than normal, or just normal, but I definitely don't have narrow feet. I wear size 11 air force 1's if that's a useful comparison. I want to get the size with the least risk of having an uncomfy fit. logically going .5 size up would be better since at least it wont be tight, but im afraid that 11.5 will be too large. sorry this question / comment was all over the place im just tired and need some advice lol.

[@DavidBluetile]

I would say go up a half but definitely let me know how it works out.

[@apo911]

@@DavidBluetile thanks ill definitely consider that. ill get back to you when i buy a pair.

[@tom_edge]

love the colour. the insole looks trash though

[@freelives5159]

Looks awsome 👍👍

[@abbod_moe]

Those are fire ngl

[@BurntWifi]

woahhhh these have my eye and im a nike fiend

[@hou5eheadjason]

these look good and im not really big on nb skate shoes , but would like to see what other colorways they do .

[@sole__doubt]

Yeah I have some but I never wear em, I just cant wipe out the idea that my boomer dad wears NBs.

[@hou5eheadjason]

@@sole__doubt the only pair i bought was the nm 22 and those dont even look like nb because their is no N logo its more minimal but I couldnt even skate those because its way too much boardfeel for my liking , ive been eyeing the tiagos in the brown but gonna just get accel ogs instead

[@Noodlez82]

go for the 1010s. one of my favorite shoes ever@@hou5eheadjason

[@charlesdontcare]

your shoe collection must be huge man

[@DavidBluetile]

Well I skate so many of them… yeah I have way too many shoes. I’m skating a lot lately though so I’m kinda burning through shoes

[@sirwaltsworld]

These are clean

[@spencebjj]

David, do you know any details of the Albino and Preto SB drop?

[@williamwoff2745]

Chocolate Thunder! Hey, at least you’re wearing pants.

[@DavidBluetile]

hmmm haha wut

[@nerdbamarich2063]

I like those 😊

[@wydnoob5974]

i really thought he would have a pro shoe kinda disspointed for real. reynolds is a LEGEND he shouldve got a shoe immediately and im sure everyone would agree

[@AddverbMedia]

He's coming out with a pro shoe in a year or so on Numeric. He just got on the team, I'm sure his shoes will be fire and they don't wanna rush the process.

[@bucky89price85]

Do you know the lace size for the NB 480?

[@highaltitude02]

David, could you give me an idea on if this shoe is comparable to the 1010? As in fits a little long if you get normal size? I wear 10 in the 1010 but I wear 10.5 in the 440s. But the 1010 does come a little longer than most size 10 shoes, 10.5 is too big. Thanks.

[@DavidBluetile]

Man feet are so different. I’m an 11.5 in 440 and a 12 in the 1010 (except the roan ones). I could go either way on the 480 but the 11.5 feels a tad snug to skate in and my toes get a little sore after a while

[@dubwisefyah8153]

Where can I find those online?

[@DavidBluetile]

They’re sold out at this point but you can buy them after market

[@arbitraryass]

sweet

[@thechosenone9098]

Hey man do Yk if I should go true to size with these or go down?

[@DavidBluetile]

its a bit of a either or situation. I explain in the video. in the last 480 video I posted I was a sure TTS but after skating them I could go up a half size or not... new balance tend to do that for me. where they feel so comfy at first but then my toes start to feel cramped after skating in them... I might have explained it better in the video

[@gtotheferr]

Just me or do these Reynolds fit .5 smaller than the other 480# ?

[@DavidBluetile]

I didn’t feel that but I think I could go either a half size up or tough it out until they break in. I would love a size 11.75 haha

[@gtotheferr]

@@DavidBluetile haha ideal!

[@DRUGSAREFORSLUTS]

Be honest with me because I’m about to quit nb. I’m an 11.5 All of the tiagos I got 11.5 and my heel slips out when I walk. What size should I get of the Reynolds?

[@sdm74]

Tiago 1010 run half size big. I have 11.5 in the foys 306. Everything' else I tried 11's in the 1010, 425, 420 and 408.

[@DRUGSAREFORSLUTS]

@@sdm74 see I would say all tiagos are run small

[@Desertrockmtn]

My tiagos hurt my toes! Had to ditch em after only a week. Need wider toe box and yeah my heel slipped out of them too. Poor design but they look sweet

[@DRUGSAREFORSLUTS]

@@Desertrockmtn I got a pair of emerica og1. I love them so much I bought 3 pairs.

[@galvanizedgnome]

Where's the gold and brown. This isn't bling bling enough.

[@Jeremya74]

You say that you need to go up a half a size ALOT in your vids..did you ever think maybe your a size 12?..along with your ears and nose,your feet never stop growing..they slow way down but dont stop growing

[@connorgrossman7157]

Limited is disheartening to hear 😅

[@letsgotomarsman]

Just wear thicker socks, like work boot sucks

[@DavidBluetile]

True. But hot dang I already be sweating. Haha

[@Damoforce]

It's only a colourway though.. shame

[@DavidBluetile]

you cant put a solid pro shoe together in 8 months. hes working on it.

[@smallfaucet]

I think it's lame that riders get seduced by these huge brands......wish Airwalk, Vision Street Wear etc would come back......I've been wearing Es for the last 20 years and would never give my money to Nike, NB or any other brand trying to scab on the sk8brdg industry. That's just me though....I'm old lol.

[@DavidBluetile]

I think if core brands didn’t start selling to mall chains like pac sun and journeys to try to reach a larger non skate audience by adding in “food court pro-models” the doors would have been held tighter closed for big brands. I remember when journeys entire store front display was circa… our circa sales died over night. Fast forward to now and the eS consumer is trained to wait for sales and almost never pay full price for shoes…. Shops can’t sustain a brand as just being a wholesale middle man so the brands that sell at full price rise to the top.

[@smallfaucet]

@@DavidBluetile Well you make great points. I also am looking at this through lenses of emotion rather than business sense. I never liked Circa anyway; sure they had good riders but the shoes were ugly....which is also highly subjective. Thanx for the reply \m/

[@DavidBluetile]

@@smallfaucet jaime had some pretty sick circa shoes for a while. several. a lot of them carried over to fallen. That same thing did happen with soletech brands though. Circa was just an exact moment I recalled. the biggest hurdle for core brands is the consumer just about refusing to pay full price. I once heard this saying that sticks with me. "your brand is the amount of money someone is willing to pay over the value of the product." basically its suggesting that you dont have a brand if people wont pay more than the materials are worth. I feel like the consumer has abandoned actually supporting skater owned brands and really just support their wallet while preaching "skater owned". I dont blame em. money is tight! but people will pay full price for nike product so theyre going to win in the market place.

[@Xcotic_Ghost5]

I wear a size 12 in alot of shoes but new balance is size 11 idk why

[@DavidBluetile]

I think the 272 runs big. Maybe the 213 as well. Oh and the 22 … everything else fits true-ish except the Tiagos are snug
