@Johnnyutah247 993 IMO - been eyeing a pair myself

[pechelman]

Any sizing advice for MIUSA 998's if size 10.5 MIUK 576's fit perfect? If it matters I have a narrow ish low volume foot and usually 10 in Nike/vans, 10.5 in adidas, and 9's in dress shoes, Mister Lou, and Nick's.

56kms in two days. Time for some R&R...

@Seul Outstanding!! How are you feeling today?

[Seul]

Bit peckish, perhaps.

@Seul how is the comfort on those fresh foams my little piggy?

[inosaris]

@Megatron1505 how do you find sizing for the v6 in comparison to the v3/993? Have read the v6 runs about a half size larger, has that been your experience?

[Megatron1505]

@inosaris , I’m in the minority with the v6 as I am not a huge fan of them. In terms of fit they feel really long, but not particularly wide.

I’m not a fan as the quality of the outsole rubber is terrible. I’ve had these and the first grey pair (which I sold for cheap), and bit of the rubber just randomly fall off on both pairs after not much wear.

I contacted NB in the UK and they thanked my for my email and would pass my comments on.

[Megatron1505]

Also, the 991v2 is just better looking and more comfortable.

[inosaris]

@Megatron1505 Appreciate the insight and sad to hear about the quality issues on the v6, rubber falling off is alarming. Sounds like that one will be a pass

[Seul]

They do a fantastisc job... They just eat up the miles...

Not a very sexy purchase but got a new pair of 860’s for walking. Super comfortable. @Matt aren’t you an 860 man?

[Matt]

Yup. I like a stability shoe as I need the hard support in the middle. Love the 860. Switched to Hoka for the forefoot rocker since I now have arthritis in my big toe but I’m not sure it’s worth it. Plan on switching back.

[SKT]

@Matt I had the v13 and now these v14’s and love em both. The v14 feels just a little tighter but not enough to size up. New Balance has upped their running shoe game

[Matt]

For sure. My last pair was wide and they felt great. That could solve your tight issue. I don’t usually go wide but when she measured my foot at the running store she said I was right over the edge. Nice that NB has lots of wide options.

I dipped these 998s in the indigo vat last weekend I think about five times. I did these on a whim and they actually turned out to be the prize of the whole weekend. I'm really happy with how these turned out. They were grey and pale yellow with some blue in a few spots. I love how indigo blue some of the areas turned, especially the upper heel area. Wow that blue is bright! What do you all think?

[pechelman]

those are pretty rad @Oaktavia
I think you also just saved yourself 600$ or whatever for the new ultra limited dip dyed indigo 1500's they're going to release soon
love how those shoe lace ends trapped the dye too

[GardenState]

@Oaktavia I love these!
