Thank god no 10.5 or it would have been an impulse cop.

Was just thinking this same thing.

New Balance is trying too hard to feed the beast and capitalize on this Sneakerhead trend. I understand they want to maximize profit, but too many releases with high price tags is sending a lot of crap to the outlets.

100% TRUTH

NB price points are way too high

THat's why you find so many on sneaker sites in the sale section nowadays

I'm trying to put an old made in usa 999 upper I happened into on 998 or 997 sole somehow...

Don't mean to knock your efforts, but how is the 999 sole unit still in usable condition???

I think you misunderstand, that's actually my problem. The upper is near flawless, but the sole has some awful cracks and I want them wearable

No way I could fall off with all this stability from the rollbar

If you're talking about an old made in USA upper... You should throw that on a new 999 midsole and rock em as a 999... Shoe is super cool when the shape isn't doo doo

They're made in USA, I never realised how cool the model is until now. My gripe is that I'm not a fan of the 999 midsole. Honestly I'm not sure where to begin though, this kind of restoration is out of my league and I'm not sure who is comfortable enough with nbs to want to help haha

Completely agree, the 999 has a really cool silhouette. Which sucks cause it feels like I'm sliding forward when I wear my pair due to the really high heel toe drop

Urban Outfitters with the sick sale http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urba...p?id=34809822&category=SALE_M_SHOES&color=016

 

[shoop10]

is that nimbus on the saddle and tongue? I wish Aruba was still around I waited too long and now coral/aruba are both gone . I think the perf toe is the way to go on these it gives them a classy look and I bet it will age better than the mesh, aside from creases of course. 

Yes. That is nimbus.

Just saw those too! I need the dark green ones but not necessarily for $215 + ship. Love that colorway, though.
