You get 2 pairs of the shoes though, depending on retail..roughly 220x2 plus a bottle....Not bad price for a night out in Boston

Yah seriously!  But plane tickets are expensive...if I lived in or near Boston....I'd be all over this.
 
Woah the 998's look incredible!

Why can't NB1 give me options so I can recreate similar blocking???

Think he meant 2 shoes. A 997 and a 998.

Proper punctuation is key.

Man...that would be sweet to attend....$700 a night though....

Where you gettin 700? Cheapest hotel is 411 for a night and the sneakers will cost minimum 450. Wouldn't really call it a deal but if if didn't have to just drop bills on roses, tannerys and my Jamaica trip I'd be all in. Edit also if you work for NB could you give some closure on how much retail will be?

On the actual W Hotel site.  My department doesn't really deal with pricing.  A lot of that is up in Boston.  We don't get a lot of info on the collabs.

I work for the E-Commerce hub in St. Louis.

Wait so 4 pairs?
A Boston 998/997 and then a NYC 998/997?

I'm confused.

I'm going to assume it's 2 different pairs of shoes, but the package says 4 pairs because you can split the room with friends and choose any combination of pairs between the 2 different styles. All 997, all 998, or anything in between. It kind of makes sense when you get 4 tickets to the invite only event.

Got it. Makes sense.
I was trying to read while in traffic and it wasn't working out

Am I in the minority that isn't feeling the orange on the 998? I do kind of like the 997s, but they are pretty loud. Mint brings back memories from my childhood of mint oreo blizzards.

if someone book this can you post pics of the shoes?
 
Honestly if I had someone to split it with I would. The 2 pair package isn't really that good of a deal. Kind of ticks me off that concepts won't answer questions about the package and the W has no idea what your talking about. I would like to know about mixing and matching sizes and what not. With that being said I'm just gonna cop online day of release.

most common problem when product shooting NB is that most of them will never lay flat
 
those 998's

curious is the sizing is gonna be loose and sloppy like the more recent nb's?
