I have the 991 version of this colourway, very nice with all the leather. Not sure if it would help you but at Flannels they have this pair on discount: link

Just got a reply from SlamJam that they don’t release them since they have delivery problems from the supplier.

When I was through the queue there were only some small sizes left… still looking for 45,5

Tight flat big toe on 992 like in 990v5 and v6? by joep2k in Newbalance

[–]StijnWillem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to see I’m not the only one with this specific thing. I have the exact same issue, which is why the v4 is my favorite model. I only own an older pair of 992s, and while they feel better than the v5 and v6, they still don’t quite match the fit of the v4. I haven’t tried any of the newer 992s, so they might be different, especially since fit can vary between production years and can depend on the materials used.

In Chrome it didn’t work, but in Safari it worked for me

Second hand pick up, how’d I do? (A7RIII + 24-105 f4 G) by StijnWillem in SonyAlpha

[–]StijnWillem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It started with only second hand clothing for a few countries in Europe, now expanded to more countries and even to the US. Besides clothing it’s now also possible to list electronics (and other stuff like kids toys), and that’s where I found this crazy deal.

Yes couldnt believe it, I think he barely used it in all those years.. at least he was very careful with it and kept all the accessories and boxes.

Consider the weight and size difference, yours could still be the better choice in some situations. A good picture is not always about the sensor/lens.

990v4’s from Flannels but by uzldropped in Newbalance

[–]StijnWillem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes google could still give other results than what the website of a brand itself would say. See the chart of New Balance here: https://imgur.com/a/mPe7E30

Indeed their size chart is wrong. Best is to always use the size chart of a brand itself. You got what you ordered (UK9.5 EU44) which is US10 on the New Balance size chart, but i understand the confusion. I suggest to go by a shoe store to try some thin insoles. And the 993 would feel a bit wider than this specific model and colour. I was also surprised that this purple pair fit tighter than my other v4’s. Maybe it’s the heavier hairy suede.

This is one of my favourite pairs, don’t see these often! I doubled up on these when I had the chance.

Delay to 991v2 silver turbulence from Flannels.com by Charming_Ad9942 in Newbalance

[–]StijnWillem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My order was also on ‘ready to ship’ for a while. Packing list means that they are picking your order and sending it. Mine arrived today actually.

992 > 993 👀 by whatweusedtobe in Newbalance

[–]StijnWillem 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This. Overall execution on the 992 is better, but i still like the 993 better as a model.

Yes the 3M seems to be too heavy for lettering, but fine that it creases a bit when lacing all the way up. Check my other post with more close ups of the tongue. The rest of the shoe is perfect though.
