120 for these a good deal or could it go lower?

I am pretty sure the consensus is that $120 shipped is a go. A lot of members on here including myself were happy to shell that out for them from Packers. Like I said , for me the price was definitely reasonable.

good price for an excellent pair...i mean...50% off so you cant get much better than that.

General rule of thumb for all Made In U.S.A. (i.e. 997, 998, etc.) and Made in England (i.e. 577, 1500, 1600, etc.) models is half size down from your Nike sizing- sizing is consistent across U.S./UK shoes. It gets tricky with Asian-made NB's, unfortunately but you are generally safe going a half size down as well (and in rare cases a full size down from your Nike sizing). 

I wear a 12 in Nike/Jordan and I am an 11.5 in all of my U.S. made New Balances with the exception of a few Asian-made 577's that I ended up selling because they were too big (Burn Rubber Joe Louis joints, Bodega Hyprcats). Hope that helps.

that's been my experience as well.

think about it this way, if you have a lot of shoes,  whats the point in keeping (or buying) a pair you don't really like that much?

Are the Colette 580's made in USA, England, or somewhere else?

Thank you! So that means they fit a half size bigger than USA or England-made NB's?

Weird collab but I guess?

I remember, was looking for them all over a few outlets but came up empty. Btw bro, I know ur a fellow outlet hunter...25% ur total purchase is going on right now..which means all shoes on the hash/bin come out around $60 based on the average $89.99 for lifestyle bin shoes the outlets sell. I will be in Woodbury and possibly tannersville doing some runs

any chance you come across some size 13 gems.. I'm your man and in South Jersey so shipping shouldn't be much

remember there being a lot of interest in them when they dropped people were snatching them up on disco. personally not a fan of the canvas toeboxes they do on the distinct series but it is a beatiful shoe

 

[zk1mpls]

Hi guys, was just wondering how New Balance's gum rubber outsole wears over time under casual use? Considering picking up a pair of 574s with some soon. Thanks.

 

[92Loprostar]

Just got these in..fastest shipping ever...it also helps I am in Jersey too..lol

 

[dragon671]

So I guess none of you guys order from these websites like joesnewbalanceoutlet.com ?  Sorry I can't post url's yet.

I thought so too at first, then I realized its just for NB1. They've always had "Influencers" advertise for the NB1s, so its not really a true collab in my eyes.

 

[zags]

Thank you! So that means they fit a half size bigger than USA or England-made NB's?

maybe not, I still went ahead and got normal 997/8 size, 1/2 down, and length wise it is fine, a little more narrow/tight but I think they will loosen up with wear/time.

Last couple wears. Red 997 is 997DTAG, an upcoming release.
