For those that bought and received their 998 GTs....did you get extra laces? I didn't get any extra, but I thought Deon said it was going to come with 2 extra laces.

Damn was hoping to pick up the Hilltop blues on sale and waited too long and my size 7.5 sold out.
Haven't been able to find anyone selling that since.. :/
Another regret from 2015.

Thanks guys, I guess I'll email them. Not a big deal as I would have most likely stuck with the tan ones anyway but would have been nice to have the option.

It's a such a great CW. Kind of reminds me of the Asics Rivingtons which I love but will not pony up for. Try the bay, they got to come up sometime surely.

Yeah I'm currently stuck between grey 3M and the stock laces. I'm just such a sucker for 3M lol.

What's the going rate for the Luxury Goods 997 in a sz 11? $300ish?
Any help is appreciated--don't want to overpay if I don't have to.

Pretty excited to start off the new year with these bad boys. Just picked them up and thought I'd take a quick cell phone shot of them. Never thought I'd find them. Although they're a half size big, the price I got them for makes up for it!

If you have a New Balance retail store near you they will be able to order a pair for you, prob even give you a coupon to use towards it. There's still a bunch left at the Lawrence/Ontario factory just sitting on closeout.

Your def not gonna see the 997DSLR in any outlets lol unless they have 1000+ pairs of 2nds sitting around in St. Louis which I doubt since they would have sent those out to the factory stores before the holidays to sale, they're pretty much all but gone from the major warehouses/factories only a few sizes remained like time I checked.

Swapped to red laces on my GTs. Apparently doing that left some red stains around the lace holes. No biggie but I guess it's an indication of how easily this colorway will get dirty unless cared for properly
What do you guys usually use to clean suede shoes? Suede eraser + brush? Jason Markk?

I got rid of my Grey 999s from the wanted pack so I plan on replacing them with these
Has anyone seen these in person? I know the suede probably wont be as nice, but they remind me of the 998GNR.

Happy new year to all!
Looking to cop my first pair of m998s. Specifically, the grey bring back made in USA model. Appreciate if someone can advise me on picking the correct size. For reference, I wear a 9.5 in all Nikes. The only pair of new balance I own is a MT580 and I wear a size 9 in that. I heard those fit big compared to other new balances so I wasn't sure if i should get the same size.
Thanks!
