How's the flying the flag 1500 in person. That price is tempting but I don't know how much I'd wear a bright red sneaker.
I own them and they're great. I do agree with you about the colour though. They're not the kind of shoe that you can wear with anything, like the 997GY.
So I'm checking out those 1500 flying the flag. Do you guys go half a size down from your true size for Made in England 1500s? My true size would be 8.5 (997/99 as measured by the Braddock scale. I can fit a 9 in 997/998, but there is like 1-2 cm of extra room. My 8.5 998s were a lil snug at first, but felt perfect after 2-4 wears. For reference I'm a 9 in Asics GLIII/GLV and wear 9.5 in Nike SB/Dunk/AF1/AM90s.
I got my usual NB size (US 9.5) and they fit well. I'm a 10 in AM90s/AF1s.
