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

@moshepark  I've seen pairs with a pretty good shape, so I'd return them and cop one instore?

Oh and guys with the 997JOL, do they fit TTS like regular-lined 997s? Or slightly bigger like the Concepts 997s or the JCrew Butterscotch?

 

[verse001]

Wore these today

Saw one of the 997s with the gradient midsole in person and I gotta admit, the pictures aren't doing them justice. Quality is what we've come to expect, but the color contrast is actually pretty damn appealing.

On another note, as much as I want to like the Tyrians, the model is too bulky for me. Wish Concepts would've used the color on a different model.

Price check please! Saw these at a garage sale.

Cortado's came in. The quality and construction is definitely on point, and the CW is fire IMO. Love these things

@max90  I concur.

I may try to do that! The hassle is a pain, though. I know that on feet they will look fine but they toe box is struggles compared to all my other 997s which are older GRs and Concepts collabs. They did a good job with it, just really took for granted the shape of the older pairs lol.

Last night at the Grizzlies game. Love simple 1400's.

was trying to look at the salmon 990v4 on newbalance.com....that thing is basically sold out?!?

for sizing, those 990v4 i'm assuming is similar to other MiUSA line? 990/990v2/991/997/998?

when I tried on in person the guy working at the story told me the closest thing they had to a 998 was the 990 and for should be about the same. To me personally it's not to far off

Saw some at the NB outlet in Orlando couple weeks ago. Was pretty bummed I didn't find anything in my size there.

 

[threegeees]

Got my discounted Jcrew 997 in. Not bad but not keepers

 

[moshepark]

If anybody needs the Cortados in an 11.5 for the discounted price shoot me a PM. Otherwise I'm going to go ahead and return them. Nice shoes but not for me. I'm going to try and cop a pair of Butterscotches instead

Would have to be outlet or online cause they stopped making them when the v3 went away. They originally retailed at like 120 or something which is kind of crazy since its half the 990 and no encap lol you can find them for a lot cheaper on the bay im sure. 

 

[mykoh]

Sorry to bring this up again but i think my question might've gotten lost;

NB fam with the 997JOLs, could you let me know if they fit slightly bigger than regular 997s?

Like Concepts 997s, or the JCrew Butterscotch, which for me fit half size bigger.

Thanks!

Even with the God awful shape, these are one of my favourite pairs that I own. They only go for like $150-200 on the bay though, from what I've seen.
