If adidas and Kanye are breaking up, I'm glad I got my Turtle Doves and Pirate Blacks before prices skyrocket.

Perhaps Ye is finally considering his OWN brand? Dropped Nike cause he didn't get the control he wanted.. Went to Adidas and promised everyone would eat.. TRIES to stand by his word, but discovers that Adidas won't give him the control/freedom he wants, says 'fugggg that,' does a test run via yeezy.supply (success), decides to bail on Adidas (like he did Nike), but this time to take the reins on his own, planning to release the madness with larger production and a more realistic 'everyone can eat' price point? Realistically speaking, you know how many 'investors' would want a piece of yeezy's new startup? I mean, splitting off, sure he could pull more ends, but at the same time, doing releases through well-established brands such as Nike and Adidas does help with the hype/exclusivity/distribution. Not to mention, you can only drop prices so much.. ya' still want quality garments. Quality-wise, I would hate to see Ye try and market to an H&M crowd; it's nice being an adult and paying 'a little extra' on garments/sneakers that are reliable and have high-quality materials and tech involved. /end rambling, lol

As far as shoes go I don't think Kanye can afford to do it with out the backing of a major brand. All of Kanyes shoes have major Nike/Adidas components to them that are crucial to the shoes design/function. On his own he would have to come up with something proprietary to set his shoes apart to push the volumes he would need to make it financially worth it. All things he doesn't have to worry about by collabing with a huge sneaker company. Hype will get him far, but Kanye won't be able to make it on his own
 
Uncle bought $200 worth of tickets on raffleJsfordays and they sent him a sz 9.5 yeezy low grey... They didn't come in half sizes!!!!! smh.

So much resale talk guys are posting pics of shoes bought on resal market that have nothing to do with yeezy. Resale thread or nah
 
"The Next Release
However, according to several retailers (who would like to remain unnamed), the next drop of Yeezys will be much less limited.

Each buyer was able to order 120 pairs of the sneaker (as opposed to 12 from the past releases), which means adidas has seriously widened the window

— maybe everyone who wants a pair will actually get a pair this time. Not only that, but as reported, Kanye has been spotted wearing two new colorways — a beige and white. No surprise here, but these are the next two colorways on the roster. Named “Beluga” and “Silver,” the two are supposedly dropping in October — which means you’ll have to make a choice as to which pair you’d like to cop. But that’s not your only choice – retailers’ order sheets also included the winter boot (aptly named the Yeezy Boost 950). This will be the first time the boot is hitting the market, however we don’t know in which colorway yet. With winter just around the corner, this seems like a perfectly timed release by adidas."

It's always been a resale thread.  Just like 80% of NT threads, if the shoe has no resale potential then the thread will have nobody posting in it on release day.
 
this shoe is starting to piss me off..
just as i accept the fact i want to pay 600-650, almost all ebay sellers are turning that offer down..
its kind of funny because there are a lot of BIN at 750, which the seller would receive 675 after fees.
you really care about $25 and won't accept my offer of 650??

Give them another week or two for reality to set in.

what size? 
 
People need someone to hold their hand to buy the shoe and now they need someone to hold their hand to sell the shoe. This ain't right. Please take this where can you sell and how much can you sell your pair for somewhere else. :smh:

would 2 pairs of chicago 1s for a pair of PB yeezys worth it?
Click to expand...
Sounds pretty fair for now. But historically all Yeezys have eventually gone upwards of $2500.. 

I don't know where the 350s will end up tho.. especially with the talk of making it a lot less limited.
