Only 500 ever made. Designed by Frank the Butcher. First time the two Boston-based brands collaborated.

This is all hype. NB people only spend $1000 on solebox collabs, if anything.

 

[newbalance365]

Not the first time NB and Cncpts collab'd...there were several collabs before the Kennedy

I get it a little more with this being said. I guess part of it has to do with me not being all that jazzed about the color way in general. To each their own and I hope everyone on here looking to get a pair is able to and for a more reasonable price than what's already been posted.

Thanks nb365. Relied on high snobiety’s research. Shame on me. https://www.highsnobiety.com/2017/10/31/new-balance-concepts-999-kennedy/

Lol a guy on ebay is asking 3k or best offer for the red heeled pair

Lol
The red pair will be released on nb.com 17/11

 

[newbalance365]

That's the problem with these blogs and news outlets. The people in these positions doing the writing and hyping weren't around then to know or aren't doing the proper research. It's a lot of misinformation across the board.

 

[suede n mesh]

If memory serves me right Concepts dropped a brown made in Asia 1500 and 875 boot way before the Kennedy.

 

[newbalance365]

that's right. that was the freedom trail pack. they also did a white/blue/yellow 576 in 2007.

 

[saalfish]

[humboldtdr]

Link?

No. But I looked at it 3 times. Lol.

Look up concepts or new balance and search their ‘story’. I saw it on that.

 

[newbalance365]

[vinylbeing]

Solid.

 

[vinylbeing]

[feelmeguilty]

It’s on the nb_lifestyle IG story. Reds are cool but I really only want the blue heel ones

*treed*

 

[jam3s121]

I would probably get the reds just because out my entire NB collection 4/6 are blue or have blue accents. I still don't know what size 999 I would need to buy though..

 

[nermindee]

Hyannis is ok but I still prefer the ML999GFR

 

[sleepybluedemon]

Was it on a FB group?! If it was the fool had $1000 at first and he got trolled for it!

Had to capture it when I saw it. Was pissed and amused at the same time.
