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

[perks]

 
Also, does anyone mind sharing some articles regarding New Balance, any collection interviews, or anything like that? Does anyone have some light reading I can do today at work? I'm looking all over Google and can't really find anything. Anyone got some bookmarks they'd share?

Here's a couple vids I posted in here a while back

 
Here's a look at some of his collection from a few years back, I'm sure it's been posted before but it's still a good watch, especially for the new guys.

http://mywifeandkicks.blogspot.com/ has some good interviews and nice writeups! And http://thosenbs.com/ has decent interviews with shops, although the quality of their writing is severely lacking. Also, Top 5/10/15/20 collab lists are always fun to read!

What are you smoking? lol they're nice I agree, but not that nice

*shrug* I like em, they appeal to me much more than the West NYCs, upcoming RFs, and pretty much everything else that's coming soon.

   Ordered my pair sunday off ebay for $170.  Every time i saw pics, it just made me want them more haha.

 

[caballoloco]

Just bit the bullet and copped the 997PR's from End, couldn't resist it with the coupon and lack of taxes.  Anyone have any coupons for Sports Zone Elite?

damn that was a really good read. Repped!

 

[panaricanretro]

Just tried on the horweens they're pretty sick in person and feel great. Almost felt a tad more snug than other 998s. Don't know if I would necessarily stray from my usual .5 sz down cause that leather will definitely break in and stretch. Not paying $400 though

Cncpts. They had my size and like 1 or 2 other sizes left but my man said they were selling pretty well at that price point. So much for these hitting sales racks. Consumers have spoken. NB please fall in line with Nike and proceed to pumping us with no lube.
