I opened the box of my 2016 Navy pair today and was surprised the sole hasn’t yelllowed. I don’t even do anything out of the ordinary, not even silica packs.
I've been wearing mine since around 2018 a few times a year at the gym and to ball in on indoor courts, they haven't yellowed one bit and I never ever cleaned them.

The only thing I don't like is that the 2016 run big compared to the OG's so they're not snug enough if you play competitive basketball...unless you wear some real thick socks.

There are a few minor cosmetic differences as well but overall it's close enough, very good shoe.

It has to be a different clear rubber. I have newer XI’s and VI’s that have turned yellow.
 
Have we done an all time ranking list on XVIs in any thread? Sorry if there already was this discussion but here’s mine what’s yours?
1) Cherrywood
2) Bred
3) Midnight Navy
4) CEO
5) Ginger
6) French Blue (Trophy Room)
7) Art Basel
8 White Varsity Red Low
9) Black Chrome Low
10) Why Not?

I'm agreement with the list except I'd put the trophy room higher than ginger. Never liked the gingers as they came out during a time when Lugz were popular and they remind me of those.
