These are better than the clown shoes
What 4 pack?Still nice, but arguably the worst out of the 4-pack
I asked about this a while back because I got 2 pair of the KI1 and each had a different midsole and different upper shape. The conclusion was that they came from different factories indicated by the code on the tag. I think its interesting all the new FLW pairs have the same shape and not mixed like the KI1. Some people also said the midsole with the protruding heel is how the shape use to be. I don't like how the heel sticks out either but I do like the shape of the upper more on my pair that sticks out. its a lot slimmer and the toe shape is more aggressive. I also dug up this comparison pic APLUS posted when I originally asked about this. I'd like to know why NB uses 2 shapes seemingly randomly. Its disappointing NB seems to be going with this shape moving forward.i love the colorblocking on new kith 998, but the shape drives me nuts. is it a updated sole they are using? the heel portion sticks out too much and the shape of the uppers are weird. if i did not know better they seem like china made 998 for shape and miusa materials. i hit on both and now wish i did not even put in for the raffle.
those new teddy 998 look better imo, we will see once in hand.
It’s probably a wrap on the old sole shape unfortunately.i love the colorblocking on new kith 998, but the shape drives me nuts. is it a updated sole they are using? the heel portion sticks out too much and the shape of the uppers are weird. if i did not know better they seem like china made 998 for shape and miusa materials. i hit on both and now wish i did not even put in for the raffle.

These are FIYAH!Today
I noticed the same thing looking at different listings on eBay. I believe this was the last 998 to release before they went in hiatus so maybe they were trying the new mold? Been trying to track these down forever. I also noticed the sole is thinner in the forefoot in the pairs with the extended heel counter.I asked about this a while back because I got 2 pair of the KI1 and each had a different midsole and different upper shape.

I think it was the last release also. Maybe the powder blue kith 998s were after? I can't remember. the sole is def thinner in the forefoot and its noticeable on foot imo. Not the same feel as the other midsole. 998s don't have the most cushion but the thin midsole doesn't feel as comfortable.I noticed the same thing looking at different listings on eBay.
