I’m just as picky. That’s why I no longer buy 1300’s, 1400’s and 998’s.
The OM576 build has the corrected toebox. No padding or bulge similar to the updated 1500’s.

I don't think the average person has quite the lineup stashed in their closet, lol. Definantly feeling the sentiments. What I wanna know is why on Gods green earth do they need to put the plastic piece there for?

To each his own. As someone who was a huge fan of the duckboots when LL Bean was the sh$& back in the 80’s, the laces make me smile.

I don't know what model you're looking at but i can't complain with recent 1500's releases and others made in flimby.

I think 8 out of 10 pairs of recent 1500s are horrible tbh. That damn toe cap. But like I said, I’m fussy and lots of people don’t notice it or even care

Color Spectrum.
Just curious but did you end up paying resell for these? if so, was was it good/bad? Been looking for these but most are asking in the $400+ price range.

I don't think there is that plastic piece in toe anymore or at least it's not noticeable on 1500 like BGG, GBG, Color prism pack, coastal pack ...
But your money, your choice

How do you feel the MiUSA 574 fit compared to like 998s? Do you order regular width or wider?

I actually think that by and large NB's doing a much better job with the nasty toe boxes. Still not nearly as sharp as when they first started retroing the 997 (those were the golden years, fellas- we took it for granted). But, still, recent 997 and 998s have been much better overall. They've also been doing a great job with the miUK line (at least the pairs I've owned)... I recently broke out the M576VT (veg tans) and the shape is flawless.

Speaking of toe boxes, what do we think of these? These look sharp. Digging the color ways too. If only they were miUSA (I'm presuming they're not).

Not mad at the new model. Have the feeling nb got something cookin’ to seduce us to join the v5 movement.when i saw the kawhi pic, it looked like a v4 to me
SR4 was my first v4. i didn't care for the v4 initially and now i have a ton of them. honestly, v5 doesn't look that different to me. It isn't as big a change as the v1 to v2 or v2 to v3, design-wise.
also, NB1 V4 option is a no brainer for NB.

Hella dopeOM576OGG today. The two from this pack might be my favorite grabs of 2018.
