Not that I care because I'm a firm believer of working hard and playing hard(er) but kanye is pulling the wool over our eyes with these. These are no different and less better looking the Nike Roshe or Kaishi. I had to son a fucc boi the other night who was wearing these. I was clowning them and he told me I was too broke to afford em that's why I had to make fun of em. The next day we're on an outing with friends and he has them on black 350 boost again and I'm wearing my solar 2's. Dude was on my jock so hard like the sneaker herb he is. Was overtly rude to him the whole night and I've never really spoken about sneakers with him like that. That's the second time my solars have sonned someone.

The moral of this story is, Adidas yeezy's are less creative than their Nike counterpart and are adding on to this snobbish elitist culture of sneaker buying. These shoes should have the same price point as a ****** roshe run. Kanye is losing it.

Idk what kaishi is but these are not roshes. i wasnt sold on all the primeknit, boost sole, etc praise myself but once I got em in hand and on foot, c'mon now. what were you clowning anyway? That they cost $200?
 
WE over pay for everything in the sneaker game these sneakers, jordans cost $15 to make in a sweat shop , everybody that pays for these products looks like a dummy to someone who not doing it.

The fact that people are hyping up this recycled design. Not a fan of the 750's either but I'll give it credit for being something fresh and new designs wise

Anyone who ordered on the email access that used overnight shipping actually ship yet?
 
What ever happened to meeting another person interested in this whole sneaker thing and dapping them up and making light conversation. Some of you dudes are permanently stuck in constant stunt mode and don't know how to turn that **** off.

You clowned another man for wearing the boosts. You were rude to him for an entire night. And to top it off you talk about "this snobbish elitist culture of sneaker buying" 

not to mention the whole ******* thing and "sonning" him with the solars. 

You give off the impression of an ******* who doesn't know he's an *******

Yeah come on lamekilla you don't have to live up to your name all the time.... $200 for a prime knit sneaker with full boost sole and Kanye collab isn't bad lol.... Paying resale that's a whole different story. No need to clown people on their shoes, it's not that serious.

Edit- you guys are right. I shouldn't have been such a jerk to the guy and shouldn't take people liking these to the extent of paying a grand so seriously. I just stated my opinion on the shoe that's all.

I was one of the first people to call out "Yoshe!!!" when I first saw the yeezy 350 boost. Discovered that's a horrible association... The Roshe is not even close, even flyknit equipped - which has not been flattering for that model imho...

When I compare the Roshe and 350 in-hand; its very easy to see the bargain-beach-shoe formula in the Roshe and the quasi-ruggedized high fashion formula in the 350.  Then there's the full length boost sole which allows the 350 to run away from the roshe in the technology and comfort design department.  It really is two different worlds.   

I then stumbled across a lunar flyknit chukka I picked up from a boutique in summer 2013 with a $170 MSRP. Everything clicked... Many traditional shoe stores display/sell moccasins and chukkas in the same style section. The 350 boost is priced just right - zero gouging.  The lunar chukka offers a much closer relation/purpose/class to the 350 vs. any Roshe including the natural motion stuff... See below and please do share your thoughts. 

Lunar Flyknit Chukka / Yeezy 350 Boost

MSRP: $170 Summer 2013 / $200 Summer 2015

Style: Chukka / Moccasin

Upper: Flyknit / Primeknit

Premium Materials: Leather, interior heel cup / Leather, medial side
