NB Fits

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

NB is launching the NBFits website with Excercise T.V.  NBFits is touted as the ultimate fitness information tracking system that both motivates and inspires.  Fits tracks and compares your results, promotes teamwork and competition and helps you achieve your individual fitness goals.

I like the ease of use and set it up, it doesn’t take much time or effort to get started.  It is also very nice to have a chart that will track whatever I want it to with out much work from me.  I also like the daily calender where I can impute information and set goals, this make me more accountable.  I won’t ever use the “team” function but I think some people may find it useful.  I did enjoy a few of the short videos, they gave me some tips I would like to incorporate into my routines.  All and all a very usefull site that I would recomend checking out.

New Colors of Some Favorites

Friday, February 29th, 2008

NB will release a few new colors of some of there performance models.  These shoes release on the 1st of April, no fooling, and may be available a couple weeks early.  So if you are looking to purchase one of these styles, you may want to wait for the new colors.

First up:  the 768 with new colors for both men and women.  The women’s color up is a pink ribbon shoe.  Some of the earlier pictures of the shoe had it with a white midsole instead of the gray.

3/14:  Update - the 768’s are hitting the stores already.  The men’s color looks as good as the picture with the lime green staying subtle and not overpowering.  The women’s version is a little lighter color with a white midsole.
