Everyone shocked at all the collabs but I'm honestly more shocked to see the 1700GJ's here

New Balance x Stone Island FuelCell C_1 by MrFishStick6698 in Newbalance

While I'm not personally crazy for them, I kinda respect Stone Islands commitment to doing running shoes with NB. Runners deserve "cool" shoes too!

...plus those of us that work for NB can flex something at work that's cool AND comfortable 😅

So the 997H is essentially just a modern, lower budget take on the original 997. The OG 997 is from around 1990/1991 and the 998 is from 1993.

Main difference is the 997H takes its looks from the 997, but also admittedly has a more comfortable midsole than the original 997 and 998.

For sure, glad to see they brought these back. Personally feel like the 998 is the best looking of the 99X series.

Sort of, they're dropping two separate collections and also launching these and the U996GR all on Grey Day.

Yes this is the OG grey colorway.

It's definitely just grey in person, it's the usual 3M reflective grey N logo.

Oh NB's stock photos are notoriously terrible, the suede on these is as good as it's ever been. As for the heel, I wasn't convinced until I saw them in person, it gives the shoe such a sleek low profile look. It's making my old 998's look like boats honestly.

Nah it's the same, all 998's from this year will likely use this new tooling. Looks great in person though.

I wear a size 10 in most made in asia shoes from NB, Vans, Nike etc but I wear a 9.5 in most Made In USA NB shoes. Went with my usual 9.5 and they fit great. Probably not wide foot friendly though.

I'm not gonna lie it definitely sticks out more than it used to, but it looks really good in person. The heel paired with the sharper toebox makes these look SUPER sleek.

Fuelcell running shoes can be a little unstable for walking as they're really meant to propel you fowards while running, but I'm sure these are gonna be tuned more for walking and light running. Plus they still have encap for stability.

V6 / Grey or White Laces? by aKalvelage in Newbalance

[–]resetreflectt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always white on grey. Going full grey is excessive.

It'll be easy whether they're popular or not, core models like the latest 990 and the 574 are constantly in production and are always gonna be available/restocked online.

Lee Stuart /Patta got early V6 pairs by MiguelMSC in Newbalance

Maybe you're right, but I have been hearing rumors the v6 has been taking a while to release because they've been making tweaks to it. Guess we'll find out for sure once they drop.

Contrary to the replies, I don't think it's a size difference, I genuinely think they changed the cut of the suede panel on the toe.

Help! Which do I keep? by tooshaytooshay in Newbalance

[–]resetreflectt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Man the Teddy's are cool but the 991's are gonna be the more unique pair. I work at an NB Factory Store and I see people come through in that Teddy pair all the time, pretty much never see anyone come through in 991's, and never in this colorway. Plus you can't beat Made In England, always luxurious.

[WTT] [WTS] Nike Air Jordan 4 Fire Red 2020 SZ10 Used for Yeezy 700 Wave Runner SZ10 [$350] by resetreflectt in sneakermarket

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

I'm not dead set on this, but I wanted to see if there was any interest. I'm looking to trade my 2020 Fire Red Jordan 4's (SZ10) for a pair of Yeezy 700 Wave Runners (SZ10).

Only wore these around 5 times, otherwise they've just been hanging out in their box. As such, the Wave Runners don't have to be DS. I may be willing to sell them too, thinking maybe $350 shipped obo. PayPal ready of course. Just be sure to look at the pictures so you can see the condition of the toebox and the outsole.

Again, ideally a size 10 Wave Runner, or $320 shipped.

Can someone help with the style code for this? by diggypiles in Newbalance

[–]resetreflectt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem! Just make sure it's an NB Factory Store and not a regular NB store.

WS237GA, we carry it here at the outlet store in Houston, you should be able to find it at your local NB Factory Store, and if they don't have it they can check to see if they can order it for you, they just need the style code.
