I could go down .5 from a 10 to a 9.5 in the 998, but were a 10 in the 998 and 997. It all really depends on which 998. Leather lined 998 fit hella big, so I'd def recommend sizing down if it is.

Well, these came in today. These are the free pair I got with my NB1 points. I have been wanting to make these for a while now and was lucky enough to get them free.
The JamesandSTL x New Balance 998 “DV”
The tongue seems super long, even my girlfriend noticed.
Anyway, inspired by the greatest character/scene in film history. Lol

Thanks for all of your input. I am an 11 in 998, and I have a 997 in 11, but I found a pair of 997s I want that's only in 10.5, so I was just wondering if I would be able to fit into those. The worst case is I order them and return them because they're too small. Thanks again y'all.

Those 1400 give clear Luxury Goods vibes but they could have at least used a clean pair for the product shots

Sometimes NB throws you a random long tongue pair. Happened on a few pairs for me. Sucks

Thanks mate. I couldn't find any 997GYs on ebay with the code yesterday, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye out in the future. My preferred models are 996/997/998/1300/1400.574 mi Asia are less comfy and fit tighter than mi USA. I would go for mi Asia only for a unique cw like SNS.
Grey NBs are a must, you could try in different shades the 1500FA or 997GY. 576OGG are on sale in many shops.
And as said before there is 990KBM2 with the same cw.
Today, 997GY

Really regret passing on the grey 990 V2 bring backs guys when I had the chance to get them...Now I can’t track them down in my size...
Anybody heard anything about the bouncing frogs hitting stateside? I’m on the Mita site daily drooling over those...

Nice! That shade of red kind of reminds me of the old CT x Solebox 1500 F&F pair...

When I first started making them I was thinking they were going to come out looking a little bit “Red Devil” like, so I had to come up with a few extra details to separate the two

Unless it reaches my knees, I’m a fan of the long tongue.

There’s a promo for 20% +$10 additional off for members that dropped this morning. Not sure if that played a role. Or someone in DMV area scooped them all up. Or NB redistributed to other shops, who knows.

Hi guys, wanna ask about the BeFrugal stuff. So I saw the promo code for ebay and click "Get Coupon", go to my cart and as the seller already sent me an invoice, one click leads to payment. So I can no chance to enter the promo code but the payment is completed. Damn! Do I still get the cash back in this case?

If it doesn’t show up, you should be able to file a “Request for Cash Back” or something along those lines. They want you to wait at least 7 days after the purchase though, just in case. Sometimes it takes a while for sellers or whatever for it to post it or send info to BeFrugal.
They missed one on a purchase from NB and I sent a request and they do their investigation and gave me the cash back. Unfortunately, last time I bought something they didn’t post, so I emailed them and I lost the request because I think I used an outside code or something.
Any other info I’d be glad to help

Thank you mate for your very detailed explanation. At least getting 1.25% cash back is better than losing out entirely than $20 coupon. And I get the shoes I want in the process lol

I grabbed em a couple wks ago from Sneaker Charleston, but they’re sold out now. Not sure how it was Sneaker had them that early, though...
