I’ve only had the 997S Fusions thus far and find them incredibly comfortable. Can’t speak on the normal model.

Nodega 997s- testing out laces. Shoes are uncomfortable. To those that own 997s, Is there some break-in period?
Yes yes these will be had...need a discount on them though, then im copping and throwing in my extra Bodega laces for the pop

One of the best!!London Bridge 991.5 on feet today. These are much better than prices for them suggest. The colorway similarity to Esplanade seems like they should be part of the same pack.

Do your Bodegas feel stiff? Feels like I’m standing on plaster. Maybe these 997s made of diff material. Added gel insole gonna wall round in em’ a few days see if it improves.Yes yes these will be had...need a discount on them though, then im copping and throwing in my extra Bodega laces for the popNodega 997s- testing out laces.

I'm not sure the product code on that particular pair but in my experience with this model... The "made in the US" colorways are night and day better quality and comfort compared to the "imported" colorways.
The baiteds, kiths, and pinks are all made in the US and fit me perfectly and to me are super comfort right out of the box.
But my M997JHZ's which are imported feel alot stiffer and are way more narrow than my other pairs.
That's just my experience like I said I'm not sure the product code on the ones you have pictured. But to me the "made in the US" are the only way to go in this model. I'll keep my JHZ's but they'll rarely get worn whenever I do get around to wearing them.

They arent the most comfy, but they arent terrible IMO....the 997S model definitely isnt as comfortable as most other NBs

After about a month and a half of shipping delays, my M991GBT from SneakerDistrict finally came in. These things are incredible, but one of the shoes arrived with a black scuff/mark on the toebox. Any ideas on how to get it out?

Do we have an official care/cleaning kit preferred on this thread or do we just do that for baggies?

Does the MiUK 770 (specifically the Norse Store collab) fits the same as MiUK 991 or 1500?
