For those who got their NB1, did you get shipping confirmation? My order doesn't even show up on my orders page.

My order didn't show up until this morning... like an hour before I received them, lol.

Loving that seafoam color. 

Colour corrected

And that's hilarious @Turnon

On foot look. Not my picture btw

 

[ohwussup]

that volcano custom is hilarious.. what color are the 3m hits? and is the two pieces of 3m in the back two different colors?

What's a good price on a DS pair of 1500CHF? I see so few pairs I'm not sure what's really considered fair

Totally ******* forgot I put the "VOLCANO ...KINDA" as a joke before ordering >.>

thanks, so the front one is ember, and the back is dragon fly?

2/2 NB screwed up those back 3m hits, on the editor it is one color and on the actual product it seems like they putting whatever color they want

 

[thecheef]

Thanks for the pictures. Dark ember looks great

 

[hippohead]

NB ids. Lawdddd. Definitely gonna end up getting like 3-4 pairs

Looks Fantastic!  Is that Nimbus or Oyster on the tongue and heel?

Noticed that too. That's almost a deal breaker. They could potentially ruin your design by messing around like that.

those custom 998s look great~
how about the shape without shoetree?

yea this is concerning to me as I have a pair on order, the back 3m hit is 2 different colors. looks pretty good on this pair actually but sure hope mine dont come like that.

[jwolfe]

Ive seen people take out the stitching on id's before and it actually does a good job. I would just color match the stitching with some paint and call it a day. 

 

[z997]

Thanks mate,
really nice shape~
its time to order a pair from my wishlist
cheers

 

[jorddiem]

I was one click away from doing a similar thing with the ID text lmao

Holy **** this made my day 

 roll with it man, I love how sarcastic it is! 

If all NB 998 customs look like this, there's gonna be a problem if NB doesn't offer size 13 again...I'm gonna need 4-5 pairs. I actually wolf whistled at these.

CRYING at the Volcano ...Kinda

 

[remy]

Woah those Kinda Volcanos are amazing looking! 

Saw the teal/white pair on IG earlier and thought they look amazing as well.

The shape looks fantastic on both pairs too.

Going to pull the trigger soon.

Might go with an all teal 998

Yeah, what's up with this? Seems pretty risky considering they don't accept returns. I can understand color shades not matching up exactly with what's on the computer, but swapping the colors completely is pretty bad. 

 

[Chimera]

Wow those came out really well.

 

[alp]

The "volcanos" are dope

 

[bahljs]

It's so nice to see those in the light. Thanks for posting those. I might have to go with that teal and pink color as those are some nice colors in the flesh.
