Yeah, they're customs from a year ago. That midsole option is no longer available, and a different color wheel of color options.

What is the “H” on those 997s supposed to mean? “Hybrid” or something?
The classic grey color way is kinda cool, but doubt I would ever buy. That idea is a lot better than releasing a literal NB1 as a store “exclusive”. I don’t know why that bothers me as much as it does. It’s just lazy.

Mine were just delivered from Notre on Wednesday ($536 total w/ shoes). I chose the khaki b/c I figured I could match more of my black or navy shoes/clothes than I could if I got the navy. I still have the old mentality that black and navy don’t go together; brown and black also.
My only issue is that the hood is soooo long - it’s apparently made for a person w/ a really long neck! Looks a little awkward when the hood is on and the drawstrings are not pulled tight.

I personally went with my 998 size, but I also don’t size down for 998s. I’m an 11 usually, and tried a 10.5 in 998 and they are a tad too small. I get size 11 in the v4 and I have an 11.5 in the v4 and they feel a tad long. The FEG4 to me, fit snug. Now, I have only worn them once, so there might be a few guys in here that have a bit more experience with that particular colorway

Looks good though! Yeah I used to have that same mentality with colors but I think blue and black look good together. I’m going to try and wait it out for a further discount, just ordered another pair of vibergs I need to relax.Mine were just delivered from Notre on Wednesday ($536 total w/ shoes).

I can't for the life of me find one in a size 7.5 - 8 smdhJust received these today. Could say the M990GRYs are one of my grails. Very pleased with these.
Thanks for the recommendation. I think I will go with my 993 size. That was what I was leaning towards, and your experience makes me think that will be the right call.

Both those 1500 look very interesting to me, the mix of materials in the triple black make the shoe.

The more I look at the V5's, the more I like them. I'd definitely have to see them in person...

I kinda even dig the CDG pair, but I doubt I would buy them and I think they overlays on the toe would have been awesome in grey just for a more pop of color. I’m patiently waiting on the perf toes.
I think my favorite out of the 990 line is the v4. They just make my feet feel good lol.

How was the sizing on those? Typical, Asian made, slightly more snug than Mi? Referring to the gore Tex shoes....Man, that cruiser jacket is looking sicksenate25 I already copped the navy pair of the RC_1's, but now I'm tempted to grab the hemp pair too.
