Is it just me, or are there too many of the same colors? They need that pop!

Not going to lie... I owned bunch of 574s when I was younger and I didn't realize why people bought NBs but I bought a pair of 997GY2 recently and I fell in love... the 1500 are so growing on me... the materials are so nice on the made in US/UK ones. Do 1500s usually go on sale? I was browsing through eBay and saw some decent ones I liked the multi color lettered ones look nice.

Everything NB goes on sale. Stick with this thread, everyone regularly posts sales.

One of the best 990 CWs. They made these look so sleek and smooth, not something usually associated with a 990.

Anyone know the sizing of the 1500 compared to the 997? I wear 8.5 in 997 which is half size small.

Same size.
Those Bodega’s got too much going on imo. Like most of their recent stuff.

I'm surprised to say that i actually like the bodegas a lot, even moreso than the Kith collabs. For some reason they sort of feel like an unofficial sequel to the hyprcats which were an awesome color way and concept on a horribly puffy toe shaped shoe.

Stompin’ Snakes on St Patties day, baby. These made in Cumbria’s go hard with a suit and tie.

This looks like a regular 997 or 997H, definitely more into this than than Bodega one (which is pretty nice)

997 has historically had some amazing collabs (Concepts, J.Crew, Kith) but this one's kind of a "meh" for me. I like the packaging, though.
