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

Can we just get a new balance section? Jordan has its own section and then every individual shoe with a jump man gets its own thread. It would just be easier to click a 990 991 992 etc thread instead of this giant mess.

First pair of 991’s for me. Don’t love them but I don’t hate them either.

Those threads would “dead” though if it was individualized. This thread doesnt move that fast where you miss a whole lot if you dont pay attention for a bit. I get confused with the number naming and all the V1/2/3/4’s though lol.
 
Currently in japan on vacation and stopped by kith today. They had a bunch of leftover pairs of the 998 FLW Except bigger sizes (unfortunately what I needed). Both pairs looked great in person. Sadly wish I showed up one day earlier as I probably would’ve been able to scoop my size according the employee. Hoping the draw works in my favor.

Price is def steeper at 285, but wouldve been okay paying that to get the release over with.

How is Miyashi-ta Park, man?

I have a trip booked to Japan for a few weeks at the end of September. Last time I was there was in 2019 and it was still under renovation along with Parco Shibuya.

Not sure what ima do with this pair I purchased off eBay. Seller is in Japan & pics show unlaced DS pair.

They arrived today & already they are diff . The laces have been laced up, which to me means they could have been tried on to worn. Either way the pic in the auction is diff shoe.
Not sure if they are legit, seller included a JP NB receipt, but can’t be sure without doing DD.

Look at the midsole compared to the ALD pair?! What is this?

I’m a Japanese and the invoice had awkward Japanese sentence. One the bottom left, 値引きについてご注意 is supposed to be 値引きについてのご注意。”の” is missing. You can look up authentic ones by Google image searching “ニューバランス 納品書” (meaning new balance invoice). This seller is probably not a Japanese… sorry this happened to you but hope this helps to get back what you paid

It’s nice! Very crowded, of course with all the shops around. Nice stopping point after walking around for a quick sitting break.

Once doors for tourism opened, lots of people have been booking to come left and right. It’s very clustered. But enjoying a lot of it so far, minus the tiny hotels haha.
 
i was there last week as well
miya****a park was a nice pit stop for clean bathrooms and trash cans while walking around tokyo
(hard to find trash cans in tokyo these days)
cafe kitsune was a nice pitstop as well
the kith store was very similar in layout to the miami location. it looks bigger in pictures compared to in real life. saw ronnie wearing his 998s at a party there, they were nice in person but not enough for me to want them or anything. gotta say its an original colorway, at least.

Yeah, everything about the shoes is wrong so tbeyre completely fake. The receipt wouldn’t even be able to help even if it was real LOL.
Thanks for that piece of Intel just incase my case doesn’t end in my favor.
I’m sure it’ll be ok but just kinda annoying lol. I’ll prolly just give up on trying to acquire these.
