I've went .5 down on 574s since junior high/high school. I assume those were asian made as they were just what was leftover on clearance at Finishline or Footlocker. I recently tried on the BOX pair at Marshalls and they were definitely .5 down for me.
I think I could have gone down a half size, which would be my 998, 574, US size. UK models typically are 8.5 for me but these have some room, similar to the other 5XX models.
If anyones looking to give the new 574 a shot the 574OR is available for $77 + shipping.

NB comin' out hot in 2018. I'll be interested to see how many more of these 574/574S packs come out this year with the re-launch of the 574 and the success of the 574S last year.
I caught a lightly worn pair of grand tourers a half size big for a steal a while back. I have to wear the thickest socks I have to make them work. Even then, there's heel slippage and they're still mildly uncomfortable |l I've never tried the double insole or adding an insert, though, so that...
Anyone order from Hanon within the last week or so having shipping issues? My order was "exported from the UK" on 12/19 and there's been no tracking number activity since. I know the holidays must have something to do with it, but it's been 6-7 business days since it was exported.
These? If so, NB has completely changed my opinion of the 574. The 574S has become one of my favorite models and if these or a similar colorway get a wider release they’ll be worth doubling up.
Hypebeasts will hypebeast and brands are going to respond accordingly to make the most money. Colabs aren't as rare as they used to be and quality is suffering (ie. what you alluded to with your Moncler pairs). At this point the next, best, hottest release coming every weekend.
