lol nah. Dont watch em then.

I dont do things like every single other sneaker account on the gram. 

That's true. You follow and unfollow the same accounts over and over and over again, hoping that maybe they will finally notice you.

That's definitely pretty original.

I got my NB1s in and I was underwhelmed a bit. Quality is great, it's the misrepresentation of color I guess. Aside from that, I went with my normal size for 998s and they fit huge! Got these in a 12 and I could have easily went down to an 11.

Yeah, same..saw his & asked if he used Nimbus Cloud. Just didn't put ID/Name on back heel..NB kinda sketchy with the lettering

 

[cdntn]

Did NB ever say if they were going to add sz 13 back for 998 customs?

They said they were working on getting larger sizes (13 in particular) available for order. But no other updates after that tweet.

Hoping they get their soles in order.

I agree on the sizing. Feel a lot more spacious than any other 998s I have.

If I rep your custom , I'm stealing your idea

Are these a custom or a gr or what? I like those.

They're a general release colorway. The 997CGB.

 

[darren502]

Thanks. I'm kinda new to new balance shoes. There are so many styles and colors out there it's almost overwhelming.

I just wish there were more stores in my area that carried them. We have a local NB store but the selection sucks.

I'm into the 530,580,997 and I'm curious about the 998. It seems like sizing is all over the place in these shoes so I'm really hesitate to buy any without being able to try them on first.

you seem upset about something? Lol I'm just doing me. Do you.

Whew. Those are butter!!
You guys think the gy2 will be readily available? Hoping to cop on a discount.

 

[thecheef]

I understand this may not be allowed, but I am willing to help anyone that wears a size 12 in the 998s with a pair of Cnotes.  I bought (at resell) a pair and I thought they would fit, unfortunately they do not. PM me if interested/have any questions

Completely agree. It's the first colorway since the GY and NV that I might be willing to pay retail on.

 

[threegeees]

Never pay retail for NBs on principal alone for me. Their prices are just stupid. Just seen those new carbon blue 1400s today. Dope but 240 lol get out of here with that

 

[Aztro345]

Legit check on these gy
