Official New Balance Thread *sizing info for different models on first page*

This makes me feel much better about ordering a Large. I've never owned an NB tee and the inability to try before I buy pushed me to order up one size (in case of slim fit or shrinkage).
I wish I got a large for the slightly looser fit, but nonetheless will still wear it since it does fit me
 
End came in a day early:

So after seeing that the only other person to hit in a size 12 on NT got Kakkerlaks I thought there was no chance that I would get a pair too... I even reached out to see if he would possibly trade or sell his if I hit on a different pair but luckily it worked out:

Amazing mail day for me:

Dope man. Glad you got what you wanted!
 
Fedex delivery came in a day ahead of schedule

Peeked inside the bag to see the colour I was secretly hoping for

These things are sick

First impression of my first NB is the attention to detail, overall high quality of materials and top notch construction

While I would've been happy with any of the colours, the muted tones of these fill a nice void in my modest, but mostly loud collection.

Damn comfy too

Just a bummer that we've got rain here for the rest of the week so won't be pounding the pavements with them for a few days

Sorry for the barrage of photos, but I'm stoked on these and excited to finally have a NB in the mix :nthat::nthat:
 
Since no one cares about these anymore, where are they even for sale at? Been kinda keeping my eye open for a pair of 1500s in my sz. I don’t see anything on stockx or goat apps... not much on eBay either. Maybe I’m just searching for the wrong keywords?

Join the asics, saucony, new balance group on fb. Seen a lot of people selling them.

If you are 9.5...lmk under retail shipped. Have 1500 & 1530
 
^it was the yellow. @vidiviciun sets the bar high for NB1s but after doing two pairs, one of which I sold, less is def more. I thought more about what color(s) were lacking from the rest of my rotation rather than trying to use everything I had in front of me on the color wheels. I'd recommend figuring out colorblocking first then picking colors. I feel like the 990, both v3 and v5, lacked a lot of the freedom that make it worth it compared to 997/998.
