Yea I was really on the fence because it's nothing like breaking in that horween but I said screw it. Concepts do have them on sale already for 240 shipped...so cop from concepts if you want them.

Nah. I actually went a .5 up since that's all they had. Thought I could make it work w the classic thick sock trick but they just look huge on feet

im not a huge 990 fan, but depending on what they look like, I might venture out there.

Bought these on eBay last week. They're too small for me (US9.5) so thought I'd offer them up on here first before I re-sell them. They're a sample of the recently released M1500NBW. PM me if you're interested.

Anyone pick up any 247 from the classics pack? Kinda curious why these cost less ($80) than the sport pack ($90).

Classic pack 247 are general release and luxe pack/sport pack are limited...$80 is going to be the standard retail for GR 247s.

Mid/outsole very close to the 990v1 but with a little extra room on the length.
