^^^They’re hoping to be back into full production stateside by Q3 (Fall). NB 1 will be delayed for the foreseeable future. Maybe 2021.

DAMN. It looks like my funds will mostly go to NIKE. I finally ended my non-Nike streak last week with six NBY AM90 designs. Those funds would've gone to NB1 first if it was up.

Kith 992 Steel Blues or WTaps 992s?? Which ya taking?

Neutral color all day. So WTAPS gets my vote.

 

[joedafloe]

Those 327s looking too clean

 

[joedafloe]

Had to take a double look. Feels like ive never seen you in anything but a 998 for years of being on NT lol

Kith 992 Steel Blues or WTaps 992s?? Which ya taking?

Wtaps for me. Im a sucker for olive or army green

 

[LyteMyFire]

WTAPS in my opinion. That’s an interesting apparel collection.

 

[LyteMyFire]

I’ve found sizing to be variable by model more so with NB than most brands. Do folks who go half down for 997s also go half down for 998s typically? I tried doing so and found the SuperFabric Tan 998s to be a little tighter than I’d like in an 11.5 as opposed to 12. Not impossible to work with, but not ideal.

Word giving me UB cream vibes but with a yummy gummy sole

Figured I’d ask here too... anyone own the Fuel Cell TCs? Do they fit TTS, or would I go down a 1/2 size like miUSA models? I’m considering the women’s sized version since the men’s version sold out.

Kith 992 Steel Blues or WTaps 992s?? Which ya taking?

Wtaps definitely dope but I'm a sucker for blue hues. Give me the steel blues.

WTAPS all the way

Kith 992 Steel Blues or WTaps 992s?? Which ya taking?

The Kith’s are beautiful imo. If it wasn’t for the asinine price I’d try to cop. The WTaps are cool, but look too plain for the price. If they were both GR I think the Kith would sell better, but majority would buy both lol.

[vidiviciun]

joedafloe hahaha I got those for free from the NB Rewards program... Speaking of that... I think my 12,000 points expired.... I wish i would've just grabbed those 9,000 points (Free pair of $200 sneakers) redeem back in January... F Covid-19!!!​

 

[Unbalanced]

Nailed it.

Must be heaven right now...

Kith 992 Steel Blues or WTaps 992s?? Which ya taking?

They're both cool, but if it's resale prices, then neither. $800+ for a NB is a big no from me.

That being said, WTAPS are definitely nicer looking, but I think the Kith are more wearable day to day.

^^^Reach out to CS, they might be able to extend it due to Covid. Doesn’t hurt to try.

 

[peteypablo555]

man I’m gonna be forced to use my rewards on BS coupons for things I don’t want on NB.com or risk losing them forever...hopefully they have good holiday rewards..
