unDSed the M1500GSBs "The Finals" to Vegas two weekends ago . in a sea full of recent J releases these definitely stood out . my boy who's not into kicks that i havent seen in a year said "whoa , i didnt know New Balance made cool sneakers"

Just curious ya'll, what's the most you've dropped on a pair of NB?

If you don't mind, how much and what was the shoe?

i dropped the most on the two 1500 pairs of the toothpaste pack . close seconds were the finals and providers -- in both cases one seller had both pairs and i struck a deal

not going to say the amount , but its higher than any other pair of sneakers ive ever bought , including Jordans and Nikes

I can only imagine, such amazing pairs there that I would be satisfied with, just those

Tannery Mints last year. 225 or whatever retail was on it from CNCPTS. I cringed every step of the way until I got them in and was like

, once and only... then I dropped 200 for the 997 GY's. The 997 NV's were discounted. Everything else GR has been discounted and collabs just retail.

400$ for grey pigeons in sz 8.5 last summer
Only worn once and looks new
Best decision I ever made. Never found them again in that sz

New Balance in the news!

"New Balance is waging a sneaker war against one of the most iconic names in high fashion ... claiming Karl Lagerfeld ripped off its trademark sneaker for his new shoes.

According to a new lawsuit -- obtained by TMZ -- New Balance claims Lagerfeld is using a block capital letter "K" on an otherwise identical shoe design. NB claims this creates confusion.

The sneaker company points out it's been using this design since the '70s, noting even fashion blogs have seen the similarity ... one with an article titled, "Wait did Karl Lagerfeld just knock off New Balance sneakers?"

New Balance wants to stop Karl in his tracks."

I dropped $280 on my Autobahn Nights. Fell in love right when I saw the pictures, I stalked Goodwillout for a month after I struck out on their release and begged them to release more but they turned me down. Finally found a guy in one of my facebook groups and struck a deal with him. These are one of the best collabs ever in my opinion and the materials used where crazy clean. Love them

 

[ironlion808]

Tts or .5 down in 1300s?

 

[jape]

Wait. So what should I expect from sport zone?

 

[mykoh]

Ordered a pair of 998ch from them and they were cancelled because the ran out of stock, but the next day they were still available to purchase on their website and purchased it again. Just waiting for the cancellation notice again. Sportszoneelite is weird..

[teivlite]

Cancelled my order at Sportszone Elite
Great communication though. Guy sent me these photos.
Guess why I cancelled. Damn man.


 

Its like a shade between the original DB's and LL's. Sweet if you're looking for a tweener tone to complete the tri-fecta.

I'm wondering that too, especially since they're made using the SL-2 last. 1400 seems TTS for me, can't find whether those are SL-1 or 2 though.

How hard will those 577ANG 25th anniversarys be to get? These will be my first pair of NBs so I am not sure how the releases go. Was thinking about just pulling the trigger on the endclothing pre-order.

My all time grail 576 FRA. Got em for a good price by today's standards. Good thing the homie looked out. I mostly strike deals I get lucky from time to time

been looking at picking those up, those some white laces in them and iron out that toebox! damn

Do it man you won't be disappointed they also come with white laces. I don't do that ironing crap. I'm not bout to risk f*ckin up my shoe to have a pointy toe

Great pics! Have any on foot shots of these. Searched instagram with no luck. I got a text from my local saying I could get these for $80 if I wanted. Wont be able to make it by there for another week or so to try them on though. Thanks
