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

I got rid of my Grey 999s from the wanted pack so I plan on replacing them with these

400


Has anyone seen these in person? I know the suede probably wont be as nice, but they remind me of the 998GNR.

I just sold mine 2 weeks ago, but here are pics from my listing. They are better than a lot of GR releases but of course the suede isn't premium at all, its not plush whatsoever, the toe box is pretty bad and stitching is sub-par. But depending the price point they are definitely a nice pair to cop.

Happy new year to all!

Looking to cop my first pair of m998s. Specifically, the grey bring back made in USA model. Appreciate if someone can advise me on picking the correct size. For reference, I wear a 9.5 in all Nikes. The only pair of new balance I own is a MT580 and I wear a size 9 in that. I heard those fit big compared to other new balances so I wasn't sure if i should get the same size.

Thanks!

Happy New Year Fam...i would go with a 9.5 since the 580s do run almost half size bigger. If 9.5 is your true size I would go with that for the 998. Best of luck!

Im hoping we get some 1300s this year too.

Also does anyone know how the IG dude heartxandxsole has such amazing toebox shape?

i wear 10 in all nike/jordans and i buy 9.5 in 998's. i also like a snug fit. i have tried on size 10 in 998's and had almost a thumb or index finger gap which is more than i prefer.
 
For those that bought and received their 998 GTs....did you get extra laces? I didn't get any extra, but I thought Deon said it was going to come with 2 extra laces.
Supposed to come with 3 extra sets.  Beige in the shoe, white, red and grey are the extra sets.
 
any of you guys own pair of these M530AAG? if so how is the sizing, same size as i wear in 998's?

Thanks fam. I like them snug but I need at least a thumb's width of room between the end of the longest toe and the front of the shoe. Would you say yours has that when you go down a half size from your nikes?

cheers

finally got my concepts gt today. am i alone in thinking the cf look alike looks like crap? just cheap painted on bad carbon fiber look. china knock off aj11's do a better job imitating cf. other than that they are decent.

Pretty sure concepts said somewhere it's not real carbon fiber.
