runs just about the same. although I copped mine 1/2 size smaller... They felt tight when I first put them on, but they broke in like a glove. Sizing is very similiar to the 996 or 999.
-For anyone w/' doubts on sizing. The best tip I can give you is just go with the series number of the shoe, since they all fit nearly the same.. I realize it may not be 100% way to do things, but it is a great way to use rule of thumb.. For example, the 577 and 574 are both 5 - series shoes, the sizing is going to be near identical. Same with 996 and 998 or 999.. So if you wear a 10.5 in the 996 and it's too big, then you can safely assume a size 10 in another 9 series shoe like the 999 or 998 will fit perfectly.
Another big thing, is finding out where the shoe is made, as it may affect sizing.. Ie. China\ UK\ US NB's. Best of luck!

the norse were 175 euros in europe, which is also pretty much...
so 200 dollar seems fair...only 149 euros at the moment ^^
but great pair of shoes...i dont regret paying that much!

Based on past releases, anytime an international brand or store collaborates with New Balance (or even Asics), when the sneaker is sold in the U.S., it's usually priced higher compared to other NB or Asics collaborations with a U.S. company. Just look at the Chosen Few 1500 and Brick and Mortar Asics as recent examples.

I'm cool with $200 for the Norse 1500, as long as other boutiques get it.
just hope they're not all in-store only, otherwise..

I feel like they should do the same for me. Glad they took care of you.

C-Notes came in and I tell you what fellas, it doesn't disappoint! The materials/suede, shape, comfort is absolutely stunning...The color placements to make the c-note is perfect. If you get a chance to get these for retail, by all means its worth every penny.

I have a question about the 998 sole. I've noticed that the sole unit of the 998 sold by RRS is much thinner in the front than the "regular" 998 sole unit (which seems much thicker in the front) and was wondering why NB USA doesn't use the RRS sole unit on the other 998s they produce.

Anyone give me some sizing info on the revlite 996's. I'm usually a US9 but I have a pair of 577 in a 8.5 that are snug but fit. I'm trying to track down a pair of tomorrowland 996 but can only find a 8.5!

I went TTS on the 998. Same goes for air max 1s and 574s for me. I could probly go down 0.5 but I prefer having a little space. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the sizing help guys. I think I'll stick with an 11. My HYPRCAT's fit a little snug in the toebox, but a little loose in the heels.
Speaking of the HYPRCAT's...Gonna go take some pics. Hopefully upload em tonight.

Just in case anybody was curious what they looked like with some other laces. I was just looking through my kicks and thought the purple laces from the Hanon Onitsuka's might look alright. Not a perfect match, but I think it looks alright. Might switch it up once in a while.
