Those Navy 1500s that come out in January look really nice.

Couldn't even grab my size of the Anniversary 990's this morning argh.. someone bought 3/4 of them

 

[grip4218]

What store let someone buy 3/4 of the 990's??????  That is so NOT COOL

  They ought to be rreported to New Balance for that BS!

 

[jellyfishin]

^ so uncool.  can't believe a store would do that.

 

[sharpiepoint]

I had to settle for an 8.5. Sizes 7-13, there was only an 8 and a 7.5 left I believe. One man army I guess...

 

[canvaslover2533]

West only got 6 pairs apparently. My dude was #16 in line 

 

[sharpiepoint]

Yeah that sounds about right Canvas. Most stores got 7-13, one per size.

 

[757shoefanatic]

I'm pretty sure you can iD that exact colorway.

Probably so, I haven't checked. More than likely going to pass. Hoping for those B&B customs that drop sometime this month.

 

[diakonos]

Why is it that most international stores don't stock size 13?

Cause everyone int'l is small

Broke out my nice kicks today...prly my favorite 1500s I own.

 

[higuy]

sharpie what store?
Lol wondering if that was my homie. Dont worry he's not a reseller. He actually picked up pairs for a bunch of people(all guys that have been buying runners for years), including me. He called a few weeks ago and confirmed they had no limit and took all our money in advance and tried his best to be 1st in line to get all of our sizes. Unfortunately two guys didnt get their size. So technically he couldve bought up two more pairs, but he wasnt about to get wrong sizes just to resell. Heard it was snowing too. He's a great guy. I owe him one.

 

[polo sport]

got mine this morning. when i left they still had really small & big sizes left.

 

[ez money]

Just ordered my size 13 in the 990's 

 

[jellyfishin]

OS Life is dropping them at 8EST for $229-235.

 

[ez money]

Got my pair for $180.00, cant wait till they are shipped.

 

[ez money]

Shout out to the NT'er for that site

 

[higuy]

No problem, waiting actually worked out so I could get that coupon code to you. Whyd you change your sn though? I was confused till i saw your sig.

 

[ez money]

damn, i never got the coupon. I was locked out my pm's and account terminated for poor judgment. Never meant to disrespect the NT rules or anything. Glad to have gotten the 990's in a size 13, now i wish i couldve seen my PM's to have gotten that code lol. I called that place as well, very nice people working. When I take a trip out to Cali I will check them out for sure.

 

[childsplay]

just received my 1300s from nordys yesterday and love them 

 should i expect them to stretch a generous a mount after a few wears? im just concerned they may be somewhat small...

 

[stunnaman]

went into West earlier 990s looked great, but passed on em

 

[remedy444]

For those of y'all that dont speak Japanese here ya go. Atmos 996 (pretty much what retail+ship will be if/when they come to the US)...

Did anyone wind up placing an order through this site? I put mine in but I guess they are just middle men? After you place your order they try to locate the stock for you and if they do, then they charge your card I guess? I haven't heard anything since I ordered a pair, there was no charge on my card or anything. 

Or is it actually a pre-order? It says something about releasing at end of december but its all in broken english.

Anyone else try this place?

Rakuten is legit, as long as the store you're purchasing from is legit. It's like a Japanese Amazon. Plenty of successful purchases from Rakuten from the Roshe community, although no purchases personally.

struggling to find an 8.5 or 9 in the 990s.
