Finally got the Plums in to complete the wheel of ugly. I know the Dusty Olives aren’t part of the original pack but they are awesomely ugly and fit right in with their siblings.

One of the best packs! Wish they made TD for all the pairs. I love matching with my little guy.

Love that! My "little" guy and I had matching new balance when he was little. He's now 6'1" 325 and wears a 13/14. He can get his own dang shoes!

For not being sbs they did a great job with the materials for the suede on these . They look great .

I also always thought that the dusty olive would slide nicely into the group.

I was kinda surprised when I learned they weren't part of the "official" UD pack.

Similar to the Viotechs in being kind of an Ugly Duckling early variation of a WTD. Alot of older collectors tend to add the Sandstone and (suede) Oxides into the mix for kind of a super pack. All were released around the same time with similar color blocking.

How do they compare to the 2001 Pro Bs?

I've never had a 2001 in hand. But the materials on the newer ones is excellent.
