AS FOR NOT RESPECTING SOMEONE THATS ONLY IN YEEZY THREADS..IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME WHEN THIS ENTIRE SITE WAS CREATED TO DISCUSS SHOES YOU LIKE AND THATS WHAT HE SEEMS TO DO. IT ISNT HIS PRIORITY TO PARTICIPATE IN OTHER THREADS. AND TO ADD TO THAT... THERE ARE PPL WHO GO INTO A THREAD OUT OF PURE INTEREST AND SEE A NEW MODEL (EX. NEXT LEBRON SHOE) AND WILL SAY "THESE ARE UGLY"... AND GUESS WHAT SOME PPL DO....... THEIR REPLY IS "SO THEN DONT POST HERE" LMAO... SO I DONT SEE A DAMN THING WRONG WITH HIM ONLY POSTING IN A YEEZY THREAD BUT THATS JUST MY OPINION

i have no issues with people being in one thread vs the other. follow what interests you. i do have an issue with people not contributing anything to the community. So many people decided to go from being a lurker to a lurker with an account with the sole purpose of being able to get PMs and ask for oops. Not saying that guy hasnt contributed but low post count and activity in one thread probably means he isnt contributing much to the other areas of Niketalk.
 
Rose Run = Adidas Pure Boost (cost $120)

Yeezy 350 Boost = Adidas Ultra Boost (cost $180) + (Kanye West & different materials) = (cost $200)

$20 additional bucks isn't bad guys; I'm just saying.......

i think people get their jimmies rustled when the yeezys are compared to such a "gr" sneaker model.

I'm a huge kanye stan. I love the 350 boosts, but listen y'all they're comparable to a roshe. 

granted they are on a better set of wheels and the exterior may be more "lush" with prime knit.

dont kid yourselves, the two shoes are comparable.

but i would pay that $130 mark up for the "tech" and the signature

Your opinion obviously, but doesn't make much sense... too many conflicting points.

If you want to compare a Roshe, compare it to the Pure Bosts... closer in price.
 
It's pretty odd to hear people shaming folks who are into rare shoes on NT. Nike has been capitalizing of hype and rarity for the last few years, before Nike ran with it the community always placed emphasis on hard to find shoes, even if back then they were rare for a different reason. I'm not an Adidas aficionado, I buy more Y3 than mainline Adidas stuff but I do have 750s and 350s. I think certain pairs, models and colors should remain exclusive but the 350s should be available everywhere to anyone just like Roshes.

i dont think its a matter of price point though. all of those shoes essentially equate to the same exact look aesthetically. especially the boosts and the roshes. as far as aesthetics go theyre inter changeable. again if you want to go into materials and and tech thats a different story. but 99% of people arent buying them because of that.

I hated all the yeezys up until the 350, and i hated them too at first. Then I saw em on foot.. I still cant get jiggy with the 750 and 950's that look like moon boots to me but to each their own. I say wear whatever makes you happy. If you feel roshes are better comfort or price wise, go with them. If you wanna shell out an extra few duckets to get kanye's name and some boost do that. I agree to some extent to the point that some don't want the shoe to be a GR, and I see the other side of that arguement because I still cant get one pair for my feet :lol: but let's not outcast folks based off post count or join date simply for those numbers.. If they contribute, they doing their part

For people who keep saying never ever to compare Roshe's with 350's, c'mon

Not saying they are the same, the 350's definitely come out on top IMO because of the boost tech, but there is definitely a reason why people are comparing them.

I'm not a nike fanboy, I love the 350's and own a lot of other adidas shoes too. I just have good eyesight and think that it's not impossible for Kanye to have been inspired by the Roshe when he designed the 350's. Oh well, Kanye stans gonna' stan.

It comes down to details. If the details don't catch you, then you (general) should buy the roshes. But, they're very obviously different. I don't think anyone would ever look at some ones Roshes and be like, "Does he have the Yeezys on?"

I definitely will buy the Yeezy's because they look good and because of the boost sole. They are different in certain aspects but there are similarities in appearance. True, people won't confuse roshe's as yeezy's but there are people who will say "Them yeezy's kinda look like roshe's".

Anyway, my point is not that Roshe's are better than Yeezy's. It's that there is a reason why people compare the two.

Roses have so much mindshare that people compare them to everything. People think my Qasas are Roshes all the time, though they don't look anything alike.
 
Yall are arguing over the same conclusion - they're comparable on an aesthetic level, but technology wise they're on different levels.
