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

[downyboy]

Info coming out tomorrow!

The shoe is classic New Balance to its core, utilizing staple materials like rich suede, mesh underlays, reflective silver 3M and grey pebble accents to give the 992 a fresh new look, while still maintaining some of the timeless familiarity NB is so well known for.

Available 11am EST Saturday, September 12th, only at PackerShoes.com ($240, size 5-13).

Those packers just aren’t doing it for me. Especially at 240.

I prefer greyer meat with my curry...

 

[syndicatepoogie]

Now I have to decide on going for these or the Casablanca pairs. Or both. Probably both.

NEW BALANCE FOR PACKER M992PK1

I feel like these literally could be made exactly in NB1.

Packer 992 are pretty much an ID right? The only non ID feature I see is the pebbled grey bits, but other than that everything looks like what could have been made on ID pre-Covid.

Packer bout to hit us with the "AND PEBBLED GREY IS ON IT"

When the JJJJounds released, they sold for $260 US on their main site release, but then sold for actual 992 retail for the wide release. I'm hoping that's the case for these.

NB realized how thirsty y’all were for the Petey Pablos and knew a 140% markup on an NB1 would work.

Close to NB1. Beyond the pebbled material, you couldn't color block the collar accent to be different from the toe box accent. That color definitely looks like Workwear from the NB1 options + Angora Cream.

These are definitely clean, but honestly, the Curry 991 is better IMO.

I'm with you there. The blue hit makes a difference too for me. Damn. A lot of critical cop decisions to make this week. Thankfully one off the list.

Packer 992s are nice, but I like the color pop on the recent 991 “curry” more.

Wait, are NB1 Customize not a thing in the US anymore? I can't find them on the site?

Got shut down due to COVID

... just came through on the 992 Ashley Grahams. I'm good with 992s now. Like the purps, but don't see myself wearing them much.

 

[raffihxxx]

Awesome another 992 I wont be able to get for retail. Personally these are my favorite out of all the 992s that have released and top contender for sneaker of the year. Oh well...

FACT.

$160 (from last weeks sale) 991 > $240 Packer 992

If they were the same price I’d still take the 991. They’re definitely dope though, especially for the fall.
