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

wont happen unless theres a loop hole like how Staple got a 577 only by being a 3rd party with Size? and even so NB US was pissed that Staple went that route..doubt we'll see another Staple joint anytime soon from what ive heard 
But the breakdown from my understanding goes like this:

USA Stores/Brands options: US made (waiting list) or Asia made models
UK/Europe/Australia Stores/Brands options: UK made or Asia made models
Asia/Everywhere Else Stores/Brands: Asia made models with a possible chance of UK models based on their relationship with NB

Why did ronnie Fieg choose the worst NB models then?

waiting list for a USA made joint is long i think its like a year. idk how he pulled off getting 1300s when he did

but the usually its easier to go with whatever model theyre pushing for the season
 
Don't anyone cop the 997s this weekend, let's just let them sit till we get a fat black Friday discount.

NB pretty much told him take it or leave.

I DON'T GET IT.

Lets take (arguably) the best NB model (997) and then select a colour. Then we will make the entire shoe that colour.

Amazing 'Concept". Then everybody will buy them for 300$.

Where is the creativity?

The GR 998/997 are much better then the last two concept collabs (IMO).

Too each their own.

Easy pass.

The Rosés were actually nice and they weren't $300... they were $235. Weren't the grey re-issue/retro a GR and they retailed for $200. $35 more for a collab with different materials doesn't seem too bad. The rosé had 3M and that croc print as well as a leather lining. I won't be grabbing the orange ones though.

yea the Rose is a slightly nicer shoe.  aside from the bright shade of pink, the hits of gray toned it down.   but that all orange 997... too much for me.  def passing on those. 
 
Idk about all of you guys, but it feels great sitting back patiently waiting for the 997BTS and 997CCF pairs to release. It's great being more selective with purchases all around. It's also great knowing I'll more than likely be getting both on good discounts.

Sounds like a lot of ppl on here are passing, so hopefully it'll be a easy cop. btw. anyone know what time they're dropping in the nyc store?

Usually at lest half the people who say pass will end up copping so not sure how easy it'll be. I'm def looking to grab a pair tho
