New pictures of the DJ Mars x Walter's Holiday Pack.

I may cop these. I will actually be in Atlanta on that day.

Anyone else see these???  WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than the Walters holiday 574s IMHO.  All sold out though, except size 13 in the red/black/gold pair. Only 65 pairs of one and 75 pairs of the other.  Missed out on my size in both. >:   

Yeah, they were posted a few pages back. They're nice, but over-priced - you could basically make the same shoe on ID for a little cheaper

You can make the Concepts (minus the laces) and DJ Mars x Walter's 574's. You can easily see the US574 tag on the tongue.

Maybe they'll hit the shops around the same price as a pair of customs or a little cheaper like some past ones. Hopefully people are smart enough to not over pay/buy them off a reseller because if you want them and strike out, you can just make them. (It didn't seem to stop people from over paying for the KITH/Fieg ones though.)

Looks like im either going with the denim blue 998s or the red 996's, Decisions, decisions.

def the red 996!

Just copped the denim blue 996 from packer for $78 & black pigeons for $175 from a homie who copped and didnt like them. Today is a good day

Can somebody post a couple real life photos of the denim blue 996? I've had them on my Ebay watch list forever, but haven't seen an actual real life picture yet.

I'll post some pics when I get mine in if you want, but heres a pretty detailed vid i found (what sold me on them)...

Damn! I had eyes on Packer all Black Friday just in case they popped up a discount code online, but nothing showed up. I wanted to cop those Denim Blue 996 for a steal but I missed out! I guess they'll hit the Christmas hit list then...

Finally! My connect sent them in separate packages/shipments to avoid possible fees so I just have one of them at the moment with the second most likely arriving tomorrow or Wednesday. I wasn't sure on sizing as most of my Flimby models run small so I had him pick-up a 9.5 and 10. The 9.5 was the one that came-in today and it actually fits perfect. Don't think the 10 will be too far off so I'll probably keep those as well...

Bonus: Picked-up some new home & office keys as well...

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Thanks! Mine were stuck in customs for over a week due to Thanksgiving. Just waiting on the next shipment. As for socks, I always use no-show socks. I think the reason why I don't purchase 577s too often are due to how they look with shorts on. Once I switched to jeans, they looked incredible. I'm quite keen on solid colors and you really can't go wrong with a nice black runner. You'll definitely enjoy them...

I too picked up a 9.5 and a 10. I feel like my foot is a 9.75 so hopefully both pairs fit.... one snug and one with wiggle.

 

[superpine]

Someone sell me a pair of black pigeons lol

So i've bought two pairs of concept Seals. Bought a size 9 because I thought it'll fit fine, a little loose but I was wrong I had a lot of room.  So thinking that there was that much room in a size 9 I found a pair in size 8 and those ended up being a little snug since i have wide feet. 

  Been hoping to find a local looking to trade but no luck.  Searching for some near retail but still no luck.

If anyone is looking for a pair in 8 or 9 PM me. I need my size, sucks to have a pair of shoes in hand and not being able to wear it..

My size 8 SEALs are a bit snug too, but I still rock 'em. As long as I'm not on my feet all day, they're still comfortable. Bummer that things didn't work out for you, man.

Thinkin about pulling the trigger on these customs I put together, some VTech NB's. Have they always been on sale to customize for 97$?

I have a quick question on 999 sizing compared to mt580 sizing
I wear a size us 10.5 in the mt580, do I need to size up 1/2 size to us11 for the 999 ?

I'm a 10.5 in both mt580 and 999s, I think you should be fine, I felt the mt580s were slighty bigger but you will be happy with the sizing if you stick to 10.5 in the 999s
