Read the interview...
I'm curious which model they'll go with. It would be great to see a 997 or 998 but it could easily be a 580 or something, which I've found to be very hit or miss with collabs

997.5 go back a page for the picsI'm curious which model they'll go with. It would be great to see a 997 or 998 but it could easily be a 580 or something, which I've found to be very hit or miss with collabs
no, they didn't. besides the tongue what's wrong with it?Didn't a majority of people on here tell you to not buy those tannerys?
that's what i'm thinking. unless there are really good fakes out there
i want to say they are legit, but do agree the tongue looks off, could just be NB QC
thanks for those pics. your tongues look short like mine?Hope it helps.
They looked good to me just bad QC on the tongues. Mistakes happen.

How much were you able to grab them for?
LPU 998BB - so happy to finally find these.
Some comparisons with the equally good looking 998CSAM below.
Around $230 shipped. A little on the high side of what I was aiming for, but been on that hunt for too long lol
I'd say the bait. Typically kith overfilters every photo and ultimately you can tell bait's using natural lighting.FML can some1 tell me which pic is more accurate?
kith
bait
I live vicariously through some of your outlet pickups. Only a matter of time before they show up there too.
isnt that for the United Arrows collab? I wonder if NB has the final say on what models that they are allowed to use or if its a mutual agreement. So many collabs are supposed to feature the 997.5 it seems unlikely that every single one would choose that model.997.5 go back a page for the picsI'm curious which model they'll go with.

fair enough, thanks for the help fellas. reassuring i didn't waste my money on some bunk pears@ohwussup I took a second look at the pics on a comp and I was trippin regarding the comments. I ain't no expert, the way the tongue was cut/material were probably qc.
Random question but did you notice the slight shiit smell right out of the box? Not sure why maybe its the new Horween leather but the 2040's have this questionable manure smell to them brand new lol no joke. At first I just thought it was the one pair but after the 3rd and 4th which were even different colors it def gives off a certain "scent". I assume it wears off after wear but you should see a customers face when his $350 shoes finally arrive and they smell like someone just wiped their *** with them.Picked these up today. Deal was too good.
Haha yeah I noticed. Found them for $90 and decided I could deal at that price.

@Nermindee
never trust the kith filter.
On the other hand Bait's stock photos are pretty much one of the worst (honest?) representations of shoes you can find (JCrew comes close), so if you're okay with the Bait photo it'll very likely be better in hand.
I'd be interested in them for $90. Where'd you get em?Haha yeah I noticed. Found them for $90 and decided I could deal at that price.
