I don't mind it maybe a couple of weeks before a release. I hate teaser shots, I hate all this little hints and all that. Design the shoe first, take pics of the whole shoe not the toe of the bloody thing, stick them on the internet and sell them after a week when people have had a decent amount of time to decide if they like the shoe or not. That will do me.

A lot of people get paid monthly, therefore might need longer that 2 weeks notice?

"A decent amount of time" That might need to be clarified as it's interpretation can vary widely from person to person. There are times when I know instantly if I like a pair, but more and more I find models take time to grow on me. Unfortunately, most of the 'growers' have gone.

I've no teaser shots and don't know of any, so can't comment on that.

I've no idea of dates or anything, but the twitter does say "AW10".

A decent amount of time is 2 weeks from photo release to release of the shoe. It is pointless this whole we have a new shoe coming but we are not showing you it but we will tell you about it so you can get all worked up by it and hype the thing up so it is the next must have shoe. If the shoe is not ready to show to the general public just keep it to yourself until it is ready and you are going to show me the bloody thing.

^It's the angle of the camera, toebox is spot on!

I really don't think 2weeks is enough notice for people to get money together to buy. Well, unless payday happens to fall within those 2 weeks. 2 months is a more realistic notice period for most people.

The should just put them in the store the day they get them and not put any official pics up anywhere.
That would be ultimate!

It's an exclusive colab with Ford. You get to choose the wheel design from the Dagenham archives:-

In fact projected RRP for these shoes will be £198,000. CT will be hooking up with the Halifax to provide variable rate shoe mortgages.

As long as there are decent updates and proper pictures instead of the usual close-up/blurred rubbish which is what's usually delivered with collabs then I think people on here will be happy. So far there isn't anything, just confirmation of a collab with no other information.
It would be nice if there were more than about 50 of them made as well. As for the forum there's a thread about that in the General section.

“Im an addict for sneakers, twenties of buddha ...”
^^ Why do you think that is J? I mean, NB Asia has remade the 997 a couple of times with this last batch using the chunkier "new" 998 midsole. Do you think it's an issue of the midsole materials/engineering not being available any longer?

I don't think they can be bothered/can afford to retool for the 997 midsole. Up until the whole Kanye episode 99% of 'heads' had never heard of the 997, his input made a cack hybrid which no one would have normally given a toss about 'desirable'.
I personally don't think we'll ever see a UK made 997, USA is a possibility but only if they do m1300jp style big budget release. I think if the right people made enquiries we could see the Asians doing some (on the account of NB Asia being quite accommodating) but we all know that recent Asian retros have a terrible shape compared to the ones from the 90's.

The return of nice suede 576 made in England makes me want to see CT back on their first love !

Nowadays, i just don't understand the policy of NB.
They are trendy so they make a huge amount of collaboration
some are really really horrible like some 580 or some 1500 made in Asia (i must admit i love the made in USA ones).

I don't know but i hope CT will go on basics models like a 576 or others made in UK models we haven't seen for a long time
