Nope and never are. Look like they're taken in a old middle school hallway with the fluorescents about to go out.

Yeah I nearly ordered that Patta AM1 cw when the color wheel changed but I'd like to see how the orange looks in hand first.
That Shady pair is sick bro. Red white and blue is always a winner but there are always so many nice GRs and Collabs with those colors that I never pull the trigger on customs. I might plagiarise that design from you though lol.

Yeah, I think one version of the 998DBOA may have a brown heel.
The 998CSAM had one version with a gum heel, two places online that I know of had it - NB.com and Kith, and the super weird part is that nb.com updated their photos with the all black outsole (but one photo still has the gum). Makes me think they had a limited number of gum heel soles and just for the hell of it they decided to use them.
AND Kith has the brown heel for the 998DBOA...

This is true. NB.com has both versions of the CSAM.
Indoor pics = black sole, outdoor pics = gum

Exactly i noticed the Kith CSAM was different than the rest. Its odd. I wonder how/why that is? Were they samples they made a small production run of and didnt want to throw out. I doubt they would intentionally design 2 pairs like that.

The Kith DBOA is also $250. It's $220 at Rise, $225 on Pys. Not sure which price is the actual MSRP. Will have to wait until it drops on NB.com.

Shoejocky selling the navy 997 Bespoke Horween for $2,999. Probably an extra 9 in that price.

A few pairs of 997s and 998s left at Haven Shop. Use code TAKE15 for 15% off sale items.
Pretty decent prices with the code.

Is it a normal occurrence for the luxury goods color to bleed?

Tried applying a little rubbing alcohol using a cotton bud?
If that doesn't work try using acetone.
And If that doesn't work then you'll have to paint over it. lol
