Maybe NB just doesn't really like ronron.
Cereal Bar> Sneaker Collabs
NB does have a skate team.

Asian made models take a lot less time to go from idea to production. USA NBs take a lot longer. I was at St. Alfred last summer and they said it takes forever (apparently they have one in the works). So that could be why they go with Asian-made models.

Thats why they give him the not so great models to work on.
Who collabs on an 850?

I feel like skating in 998s would mean lots of broken/rolled ankles though.
Oh, well on the fake pair that I had compared to the legit pair it was obvious how the different elements of the sole were put together, just crappy glue job if you looked close enough. I got legit pairs of both the rose and luxury with concepts boxes and it is was so apparent the differences, but if you do not have a reference it is easy to overlook some stuff. I will say I think the fake rose pair was sent in a real box though, I couldn't see any differences at all BUT the luxury box was all wrong across the board in size and marking/labeling. Also another thing both fake pairs (by two different sellers) had plain grey laces with no 3M stitching.
Thanks for the help guys.
@zavir So the top should be flatter, the "ENCAP" and "997" should meet up, but what am I looking for on the bottom there?
I'm gonna guess it's something with black and gold, considering the pictures they've released so far.
Wondering what the premier collab will look like.
US 998 not a bad place to start though.
Also how did premier get a US made 998 collab before Ronnie?
Thanks for the help. I appreciate it.

Some other points to look at for both pairs is the sockliner is very cheap and thin, barely was stitched on both pairs. And the insoles were off on both BUT especially on the luxury pair it was very noticeable now that I know the difference. AND overall feel is off, very stiff and that includes the outsole too, just felt off.
But yea your pair there looks good to me bro!
I do remember a while back someone explaining the collab processing (Stunnaman I think?). They said that there is like a 1.5-2 year waiting list for US made collabs where as asian made collabs have a very short waiting list if any at all. I just find it interesting that Premier has managed to score a us made collab before Ronnie who has worked with NB numerous times.

Yeah im thinking black and gold as well. Excited to see some pics of them.

I bet Ronnie got the go ahead to start on one before them, but he does so many collabs that his 998 is pushed way down the line for his releases, whereas Premier can probably design it, and then finalize it's production, not having to wait for a Puma, Asics, etc. collab to release before.
Repped! Even with the oowee shipping, that was a steal. Scooped with the quickness. Thanks!
anyone who wears an 11.5 great deal on the M1500GMN 40 gbp.

How much did you pay? Just picked up the CCF's for $80 last week, trying to scoop the CRG's for around $100.
