Could you check this out? Still legit or is this just bad quality control?

Tongue length different, tongue shape different (corners cut off), tongue embroidery different(big holes), one midsole yellowing one white. But the rest of the shoe looks good..

Edit: @professorqueens

Probably legit, just beat. It looks like it got bent out of shape by wear

The HTB's in hand are something else.  Great shoe, easily top 5 of all my NB.  

I mean, no difference in quality with GR 998s. The colorway is just dope

Bummed. NB1 took away the Horween option right when i was finalizing this design to buy.

I hope the perf suede option comes back.

 

[ohwussup]

they took it away already? that was quick

 

[drmomentum]

dang... was about to pull the trigger on another horween too.

New colors on NB1....looks like not enough colors though.

Love the 990 with the old tag. Classic.

Killer design brother!   Im in the same boat as you. Had a seaglass pair all but wrapped up.  Just had to sleep on it per say.

The 574's have new colors as well, but way more options than 998.  Lets hope they're still updating the 998 color wheel.

Indecision will get ya. Got me when the perf option was out. When the Horween became an option they said on IG it was a very limited run due to limited quantities of Horween. I was surprised the option lasted this long tbh. 

New colors on NB1....looks like not enough colors though.

At least they broght that cyclone suede back. I wanted to make a pair with the cyclone midsole but its hard to match. 

Does anyone have an unfiltered pic of the cyclone suede from NB1 they can post? TIA

@JordDiem check your IG brother

Yeah mane this pair was a beauty. I hope the perf toe option is coming back soon.

(Speed Laces were black)


@jorddiem I knew i should have pulled the trigger Friday night. The 220+ price tag with no promo applied got me. That and i kinda went crazy since friday and bought 5 pairs of 998 lol. These Horweens should be at my door step by friday tho

Toothpaste 998?

 

[Rambo93940]

Not feeling the new colors at all.  That orange is wicked though, would look nuts paired with ocean blue ala Florida Gators colors, but just not for me.  I'm probably in on cyclone/white/navy 998 pair or going with a 574 custom. 

Clean horween @VidiViciUn !

How do the USA made 574s run in terms of sizing?  Same as 998?

I have 2 pair and I believe they run a little small. I'm a 10.5 in the 998 so I got a 10.5 in the Made in the USA 574 and they just fit more snug than the 998. Still very wearable but I think I could have went 11 and been fine. Mine were not customs as a side note.

The new concepts collab took a model I would normally have zero interest in and put it on my radadr. Great job!

USA 574s fit me the same as 998s. I have to get 1/2 size up in Asian-made 574s.

 

[drmomentum]

Might go with these... any good coupons out there?
