Why does NB always insist on using those awful laces? Those would have been perfect with a solid grey or white pair. I know it's easy to swap them out, but it's still annoying.

Those 997's are beautiful.... will be patiently monitoring ebay for a better price lol

Wow those USA 997's came out of nowhere. 

Absolutely going to pick those up.

This. Sick of seeing those hideous laces on the majority of usa nb.

 I feel like I'm the only one who is a big fan of those laces. I think they're great and they add a little extra pop to the shoe.

any coupons for Rise so I could grab those 997s now? might have me bailing on a 998 custom

I was the other guy that reached out to them along with you. It was awesome to see them reply back directly and so quickly. 

My man.  Good job.  Ya, their response was shockingly quick - let's hope they carry through soon.

if anyone is interested I have a pair of the 998 cels in size 11 from urbans sale for what i paid and ship. Too Big for me.

NB ids. Lawdddd. Definitely gonna end up getting like 3-4 pairs

997CGR for $220 CAD + shipping -- not sure what shipping cost is but $200 USD at Rise vs. $220 CAD -- seems like a good deal:

The pic on site look much darker than the pics on the earlier link.

Oh man if that's the sea foam colour i'm not a fan...

And nice of NB to provide PNGs.

I hate that I just bought the 997GY and I want the 997GY2 more.  All for a white midsole.  Hoping to grab it on a deep discount by years end.

I am not a fan of those laces either.  Don't know why they keep doing that.

Yeah... womp womp, lmao. Oh well. 

Lesson learned... triple check your IDs, lmfao.

Dog 

 that's too funny. They look really great, though. 

 

[chrissale49]

The ID's are looking great guys! On a side note, this is a really odd question. For anyone who owns the 997DOL, have you noticed that they fit differently from other 997's? For me, they fit a lot bigger. To get them snug, I have to go to the last lace hole and tie them. For the CCF, I tuck the laces in and go second to last lace hole.

 

[spacedoodoo]

Loving that seafoam color. 

 

[jerkstore]

For those who got their NB1, did you get shipping confirmation? My order doesn't even show up on my orders page.
