The other rep said that it is dark violet glow but wouldn’t specify which (lighter/darker) purple. The creator looks nothing like either.

TLDR, does anyone know the colors used in the promo picture?

Based on vidi’s 998s, I bet the dark purp is light shale (only avaialable as mesh) and the light purp is dark cashmere. The yellow example on their site has perf toe, so something is definitely not synced up correctly. Violet glow is used on the stray rats v3 if you need reference.

I’m wondering if the two purples aren’t even on the current color wheel since like you said they show pref toe even though not an option yet. How sure are you that they’re light shale and dark cashmere? I tried asking the rep that but he’s colorblind or something

This is the same color wheel as used on the 998s. Colors are all the same and light shale is still missing as a suede option. Vidi made a couple with that color and it looks the same to me.

@vidiviciun has made so many NB1 that I now use them as color swatch examples

unfortunately i never paid attention at all to the last 998. guess i gotta research harder
 
Just bought a pair of the gore Tex nanamica collab. Khaki color. Love the shoe. I needed a water proof sneaker and this one would be great, it it weren’t a little tight. I got my normal 998/997/1500/576/574 size but the lining is making them too small. Anyone need em? I got an 11.5. Got em for 95 bucks.

Side note.....got the coat too. Sizing is spot on imo. It’s always crazy to me what a thin piece of gore Tex can cost.....
 
Messing around with the options
