I always regretted not grabbing these when they released. Now I need grey laces.

I think it will be too big, while the 991 is narrower, I don’t think going half up would be wise.
Now on the other hand, I’ve seen people go half down on the 992 and if that’s in your case, then the 991 (more TTS) you should be okay.
Just my two cents.

That's odd cause they sold out day of and remained that way for a while. People must of cancelled orders when they saw no resale potential?

I'm new to this group whats y'all thoughts on the 610v1. I copped a pair on the New Balance outlet site for 59.99. They looked fresh and different and for that price I decided to pull the trigger.
I think they look great but I can't see myself wearing them outside of hiking

Dang I was tryin to get Thunders but Grey 998's feel like more of a must. They're nowhere to be found in a sz 13.

Stoked about the 998 gray re-relese. I have 997.5 grays that I love but I don't think we'll see them again and I need another gray to rotate. Anyone know if the frank Lloyd 998s fit same as old pairs? I have also been out of the game for a while nb.com says they are a core release, what other sites should have them? I don't want to miss them.

Fit will be very similar to older pairs. The comfort will probably be much closer to your 997.5 assuming they don't change much, since the insole of the FLW feels a bit cushier.Stoked about the 998 gray re-relese.

Thanks for the input. Yeah size down in 992s, so i think a 10.5 in the 991 would be good. The pair is enroute so i'll post the pick up once they arrive. Thank you again yall

NB M997HL. I've had these for years, barely wore them because they were .5 too small. I stretched them last week in a cedar wood tree with a thick shock for a week. Made them a lot more comfy.
