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

Damn I only have Hanes socks, Tommy Hilfiger socks, Nike socks, & Pumas. I used to be big into crazy socks but haven’t felt the urge to get em but that might change now
 
I’ve been trying to convert my entire sock collection to Darn Tough.

Same here. Picked up my first pair a couple of years ago, and now I'm up to 15-20. They're pricey as hell, but damn near bulletproof. And if they do somehow become damaged, DT's lifetime warranty will cover a replacement. The merino content means my socks don't get soaked with sweat regardless of the temperature. The designs don't blow me away but they do have plenty of nice ones. The only real fault I can find with DT is that they don't make any true no-shows; the style they refer as "no-show" don't quite fit that description.

Man I’ve been rearranging my room out of boredom. I have a 4 drawer IKEA bed, here are 75% of my new socks from under my bed. I didn’t feel like going through the last drawer.

That's a spectacular deadstock sock collection. Or perhaps I should call it a "deadsock" collection?
 
Those are nice, but I think the Concepts Tyrian are still way better and probably the best V2.
TBF, you're stacking up a collab against (technically) a pair of in-line cws.

And honestly, I’ve never really been a fan of most of Concepts’ tonal NBs.
 
Hey everyone! My cousin is looking to get a pair of NB 990. Her first pair of NB actually. She can either wear women's or youth size.

Question - is there a difference in quality, materials, cushioning of any other technical aspects of the 990 between women's and youth?

For example, with brands such as Nike and Jordan you can tell there's a difference in materials and quality when comparing a GS version with an adult version of the same shoe.

Thanks for your help!

I have bought women and kids 990v4. The kids version are made in China while women version was made in US. Not sure for the youth version though.

kids 990s are totally different shape, construction, and build as the USA made adult versions
cushioning and support are different.
while they have similar features (encap midsole, plastic arch support), these features are made with cheaper materials
 
Not sure if this was a glitch, but these M990NA5's just dropped on holabird sports, and I when added to cart, they came out to 155 no tax and free shipping, even though there's no site wide discount. Thought I should let y'all know!

Keith filter those pink 997 sports and they will sell out instantly.

I like these pink joints but just can't get down with the S models.
