Official New Balance Thread *sizing info for different models on first page*

Yeah hopefully the 1300's drop before my Vegas/Comic Con trip. The other stuff is nice but will probably wait it out. Man NB GR game is crazy! There are still dope colorway's "sitting". Too much dope stuff for really reasonable prices. #GoodProblemToHave
 
 
I love 1300s, and I will def buy those, but for some weird reason size 10s (my size) always have super long laces and the shoe is awfully tight at the tongue.  Doesn't look as good as other sizes.
Do you leave them factory laced or relace them? I always relace mine with all the laces going down first rather than factory lacing where the first one come from the bottom. If that makes sense. And loosen them a bit, loses quite a bit of length then...

Need some help from some of the older heads on here about this pair:

1000


I got these around 2008 (can't remember from where) when I was getting heavier into NBs, and I thought they were the 20th anniversary pair. However, someone just pointed out to me that they should have come with a white box and bag. Mine came with the normal brown box the Flimby pairs usually come with.

My question is: does anyone know why? Did they make fakes or b-grades of this version? Was the shoe supposed to come with any other extras?

My box says "2007" on the bottom. I don't see any production years on the tongue tag. I don't remember a navy UK-made 996 coming out in 2007, but honestly can't remember that far back.

Anyways, any help will be appreciated.
 
need everyones opinions. if im gonna go for one which should it be, the 998 pool blues or the national parks? especially for them to match outfits with denim shorts. meow? feel like the pool blues wold be overkill with the blue but idk

Have these same ones and they aren't anniversary. I think I picked them up from Footlocker or something for cheap.

Brown box and no bag my friend.

Still have them DS, never really liked 574's :\

It depends on what color denim. Dark denim looks good with anything imo. The 998s are both national parks. LL light blue BT grey red blue. Either pair are nice. All about how you rock it
 
 
my dilemma is the teal 1300's or the pool blues?
Both are fire. 998s are more comfy and its my favorite model so i'm a bit biased. Those 1300s are a must have too. I see your dilemma. It comes down to your favorite model. Which pair is more comfy for you, and the colors in your closet. For a smoother subdued look pool blues. For a sharper attention grabber 1300nw
 
can i go my nike size on 997s or should i go a half size down? sportszoneelite has the gray 997s in 9 which is my nike size, but no size 8.5

hmmm after reading through this thread and online it seems like the consensus is to go down half a size so i guess ill have to pass.
