I just saw these available on Zappos but I don't think I knew they were coming. Apologies if they were covered already somewhere.

Nice. Any one know of a reputable company to use to get stuff from The US? i.e. a company that takes delivery of your shoes then forwards them to you. It's so easy for Americans to buy from The UK with places offering free shipping ffs. Try to buy something from The US and it's a f*****g nightmare.

just had a bit of a search for you mate and all the us places that i know of that have stock only seem to have the bigger sizes left. will keep an eye out for you though.

also has anyone got any leads on the 996db's that are out in japan at the minute? http://www.mita-sneakers.co.jp/items/M996-DB.html

ordering from japan would cost a bloody fortune... us12 needed.

davidz have the 998 in the size you want but they only ship within the us. i guess you could try emailing them or alternatively you will need a hook up or use a buying proxy

My brother was in NY when these dropped but failed to pick me up a pair, he said they're very nice in the flesh though!

I've got the og myself and I'm a big fan, prefer them to the db I think.

Wish I had got my a**e into gear earlier on 998's, some of the releases from 2 or 3 years ago are really nice as well.
