    Depends on what size you're looking for!

    What outlet is this? I'm surprised the Horweens made it, but then again everything does.

    $60 for CCFs? Were they seconds, or any noticeable flaws?

    I imagine they will be towards the end of the summer or early autumn. Check the usual sources over the next couple months.

    Kind of an unrelated question, but are they made in China? I remember they used to be made in Italy.

    They look nice, but I have a feeling they're not Made in UK 1500s, cause I thought the UK version used ENCAP midsoles. I could be (hopefully) mistaken.  EDIT: I think the Re-Engineered 1500s use Revlite?

    Those herringbone textiles are something else. This pack is   I'm definitely gonna need to pick up all 4 pairs, but the 997/8 are top priority...

    Thanks for the info, repped! I guess the best thing to do would be to try on a pair of each, but I think it's a pretty safe bet that a 12 would suit just fine. I appreciate the help!

    Okay, I know everyone is sick of sizing questions, but I have one: how do Made in UK 577s fit compared to Asian-made 577s? I have a pair of the Burn Rubber 577s in a size 13, and they fit enormously on me. I could very easily wear a size 12 in them. Does anyone have a direct comparison?  My...

    Have any other pics? They look pretty good from the side, but different angles never hurt.

    In my experience, all 9XX models fit me the same, with very subtle variation. I go TTS (a 13), for a comfortable fit, a 12 would work but it would be on the tighter side. If you're comfortable wearing an 11 in 997/8s, get an 11 in 990s and 996s.

    Probably spot on! But that'd what I meant about the UK CT300s, currently I'm looking at the 4 collabs and the blue Flying the Flag pack for between $110 and $120, not bad at all in my book. I'm also trying to find the grey and green grs that came out a few months ago in a 13. Honestly I don't...

    I agree! I think they'd look good with a flannel shirt and some tan pants, or some raw denim. And the fact that CT300s can usually be had for $100 on sale is always a plus too!  I agree with you there. I love the look of the Solebox Toothpaste pack, and the Nazar Eyes, a lot of the "classic"...
