Official New Balance Thread *sizing info for different models on first page*

Great. I love almost every Concepts NB collab, so this one will probably sting worse when I inevitably fail.

Please be something other than 327, 827, or whatever monstrosity those Jaden were...

 

[Danslides]

This one is from last night. Wifey made a sushi bake, and I was like oooohhhhhh shhhhhhhht I know what that is!

 

[peteypablo555]

won’t care if it isn’t a MiUSA model... please no 992..

You mean you're starting to grow tired of the over hyped model being the subject of nearly every collab, selling out in literal seconds, then popping up for 5-10x retail on StockX 5 minutes later? I couldn't imagine why.

Deon Point just posted a pic of a cape cod cocktail. So it seems to be based off that since the instagram pic is a cranberry field.

They also tagged @NBclassics for what it's worth so maybe that signals MiUSA or at least not 327/Jaden/XRacer

yes.
I’m gonna try for these for sure, hope it’s a 996 or 999

It’s sad that we’ve collectively given up hope even before the release. I haven’t been able to score an NB collab since last spring lol.

There was a time not long ago that the idea of a Cranberry & Vodka sneaker collab (or OJ for that matter) would’ve been a must have, resell cost be damned for me.

You MIGHT get your wish! Its pretty disappointing that you get up for releases just to wait in a line or get cart jacked. Sadly thats how it is now.

I knew something was up after that kith 997 collection. All 6 went within a few mintues

Seriously how sad is it that I half heartedly shop around for bots just to be able to have a chance to buy ONE pair of shoes for me to wear for myself.

I've been tempted by this as well, just can't bring myself to pay that much for a shoe I'm 100% certain will be restocked in a month or 2. If bots hit all the restocks somehow when they happen and I can't get a pair for myself at least the resell price will be down significantly.

 

[illustrayt]

I want to see them do a FC TC!

Speaking of the TC:

Fuel Cell foam with Carbon Fiber goodness!

...now I’m thinking of getting some grey laces for my pair. this thread is dangerous!!!

A new pair of laces gonna break the bank?

You right you right, Space Hippies it is

Yes! If I was able to make my own at least the Ls will sting a little less. I know this cncpts collaboration is gonna be some heat, I feel the pain already

 

[LyteMyFire]

What is going on with 11.5 being seemingly impossible to find for these 327s? I didn’t try nor intend to buy that lime colorway, but it’s incredibly weird that 11.5 is like some sort of ultra-rare commodity suddenly with NB.

with how stupid the drops have been and how much hype NB has gained, i haven’t cared much about any of the drops the past couple months. honestly been banking off all the hype and flipped the stuff i was able to luckily cop or any older pairs and gonna hopefully be able to use those extra funds towards more NB1s once they go back up again

Nah, the problem is that they’re a couple years too late. I don’t drink anymore. My anxiety/stress relief comes in pharmaceutical form now. (Prescribed by a physician of course)
1300JP3’s passed authentication process this morning though in other news!

How long did the authentication take? (im assuming stockx)
I've had my M1300AR's stuck for almost a month (Purchased 7/3, still says "En Route to StockX")
