Those red J. Crew 998s are illy! I really need to stop BSing and grab the Pebble Blues and Military's from there too. So damn pricey with tax and shipping though.

Coming soon. J.Crew x New Balance 998.

These are really nice. Other pair is cool too but I'd pass on those if it's one or the other which I'd likely do.

Herschel supply co. X NB fall 2013. The burgundy pair is looking pretty nice.

I love my 2012 red 710's but I'm surprised NB is doing another collab with Herschel. I thought their collab wasn't financially successful. The 2012 NB x Herschel is still available for retail online and some of them are even on sale. Resellers are having trouble flipping it on eBay and there are FSR for retail too.

And Herschel is using the same NB model as last year (420 and 710). I personally like them a lot, but most NB heads and the general public doesn't seem to like those models.

I was wondering if anyone could help me understand why it's so difficult to find some of the higher end NB models like the 990 anniversary's and the 1300 under a size 10? It seems whenever I get word of pairs of Burgundy 990 on a site there are little to no sizes smaller than 10. I wear an 8 or 8.5 in most NB's btw.

alot of over seas cats wear NBs, they tend to have a smaller 8-9 sz foot and they like the OG / higher end more expensive models..thats the feel i get at least

NB collabs are finally starting to pick up again.

 

[vicenteedgardo]

loved last years herschel 710s, and the upcoming ones are even better!!

^ New Balance made their money off them, because the shops bought em up. As far as retail, they did alright- like you said, theres still some pairs out there. They aren't for me, but I think these will actually do better. The demand for NB has gone up even more (and the timing on the first ones sucked), especially being a collab- there will be more hype/publicity, and if anybody gets stuck with them again it will probably be resellers. They should've changed the models for sure though

That's true. It felt like a lot of online stores had the 2012 Herschel's, but most stores didn't sell out. I don't know if the same online stores would be willing to stock/sell the 2013 Herschel's, especially since it's the same model.

As for me, I wouldn't pay retail for any of the 3 colors. Maybe I'll buy a pair if they go on sale again : )

Not sure if srs.

 

[perks]

Not sure if srs.

lol I was confused when i saw that question too.  I had to double check to make sure they were still in stock, then shook my head and closed my browser.  Besides the fact that you told him exactly where to get them in your post that he quoted, the most basic google search could find pebble blues.

...j.....crew.....? 

 

[robin thicke]

in da words of k. steezy

ITS J.CREW BRO

 

[tfurumi]

LOL. Maybe he is a small footer and his size is back-ordered? But estimated shipping is October if you order it... I wonder if they will actually ship them out eventually. I had to talk to customer service to find a 8.5. He probably should've of phrased his question better if this was the case haha.

 

[jayem]

In need of opinion guys. All in sz 10.

999 concept DS & 580 hectic collab worn 1x

for

JB XI playoff + $100 DS

Seem like a fair deal?
Im trading the XI for the NBs.

 

[kip2mylou]

Ask Stunnaman, he's the one with the 580 fedish. 

 

[change the name Snyder]

Those 11s from 2012?

You seem to be winning in that trade.

 

[avengenator]

There are a LOT of mad hectic 580s, some are worth a ton while others are worth not a lot at all. Any pic of the one you'd be trading for?

 

[agentorange]

Anyone here know when the 1500KWG will be starting to show up in the states? I've only seen them for sale overseas

 

[stunnaman]

Sounds like that deal will be SEALs with some mad hectics
