This is the GR right? Not an NB1?
Shape is solid right outta tha box. Craftsmanship on this pair is very good imo.

I wish we could see actual pictures of the colors and materials when designing. The finished products people are receiving are much more appealing.

Def fun to play around with, trying to not cop anything lately but that hasn’t ever stopped me before.

perf toe now available for NB1 997 along with light shale suede...hmmm. weird that Light Shale isn't available on the non premium option.
Not sure $10 difference is worth it just for perf only on the toe box.

Perf toe “Salmon Toe” 997? Interesting......
Are discount codes still not allowed?
Still interesting how they have done perf suede on the 998/997, but won’t do it for the V3.

I used the code "SWEET" to bring the price down to $170 that was the day 997 got added to NB1. Just checked and its expired and doesn't look like there's a working code right now.

Was going for these:
Don’t know if we’ll ever see a leather option on NB1 again (for panels not just accents) but fingers crossed.

These? If so, I’m assuming sea smoke?

That looks like the sea smoke. I think it is more “teal-ish” than normal blue. These pics by @nonheinous are of the “light cobalt”These? If so, I’m assuming sea smoke?

Those mine! That's sea smoke on the tongue top, heel, and base logo. Navy on the toe. I'd call the sea smoke a dark teal in person

Laced up and ready to go. Anybody else notice at the bottom of the tongue theres two small holes in the mesh? Seems like a QC issue as it was on both pairs. Don't wanna return since I got early release but still a bit miffed. A dab of shoe goo will probably prevent it from getting bigger and its already out of plain sight (covered by suede lace keepers) so I'm not losing sleep over it.
