I think the beef and broccoli jcrew 998 may be limited. I asked the lady how many size 11's they will have and she said less than a hundred in size 11 at the warehouse.  Im not taking any chances with these. Soon as they hit the warehouse preorders are shipped immediately

I'm really tempted to preorder now, I'm a size 13, that has to be even more limited...
 
Those beef and broccoli joints look terrible

Ya'll remember when I was about to scoop VNDS C-Notes for $260 from an eBay seller?

Well I decided to let the auction play out. Was able to snag for $212. Can't wait

Congrats. I was watching those for days. Couldn't bring myself to bid on them with those jean stains. I'm just too picky and don't buy used anyway lol
Good purchase though.

Yeah those jean stains are killer but its nothing a suede eraser can't fix. I wanted a DS pair but I haven't found a DS pair in my size for weeks that weren't listed at a laughable price.

Other than the jean stains, joints look damn near flawless. If it didn't state "Pre-owned" I would've thought they were DS.

Its crazy that the auction ended so low as well. I think the seller messed up by putting "cnotes" instead of "c note". Really had to dig for those joints.

Oh I absolutely agree with you. Other than the stains they looked flawless, practically new. I just couldn't bring myself to try for them. If I buy used it has to be a too good to be true deal, or like you want them so bad them being used isn't such a bad thing due to the long wait.

Congrats on the pair man, glad you got them. I hope a DS pair comes up soon, I won't pay more than $270, maybe up to $290..MAYBE lol

Yeah I just passed up on a pair for $315 that i probably could have talked him down a bit more.

My limit with these was $225. Anything past that I would have spent the extra dough to grab a DS pair. But even those are hard to come by.
 
i wear an 8 in 998s and 997s, should i get the same for the CT300s? I have normal width feet and prefer my shoes to fit snug. Not sure to size up or stay tts after a search. Thanks guys! :smile:

Edit: saw a post on SC and it says the recommendation to size up is due to the width. I hate a long toe box and don't mind a narrow fit, so i'm going with the 8. :smile:
