you're really in the yeezy thread surprised a lot of people are going after one of the best yeezys ever made huhLooks like a lot of people trying for the Wave runners here.... insane.
If all your looking for is hype shoes that puts you in a certain box. I’ve been in that box with Nike when I was buying a lot of adidas stuff and vice versa. If me liking adidas for more than just Yeezys is working to my advantage, I’ll take that. People are under a certain misconception that these brands care more than they do. SNKRS app, and Footsite apps are super trash yet they remain unchanged. Jordans, yeezy’s and most collabs sell themselves. As a company I’d fight more for non hyped items to sell and selling to loyal customers gets you a definite sales. It’s as if people don’t remember getting cool with every worker at sneaker stores to/and get hooked up. It’s not only about getting new customers it’s also about retaining the ones you already have.
Given the amount of times they have released coupled with the retail price and how waverunners transitioned from a resellers dream to a buyers best friend I could ask that question also. I bought my pair back when YS still did 3am releases and they are still pretty much flawlessyou're really in the yeezy thread surprised a lot of people are going after one of the best yeezys ever made huh
If this is the case why isn't Adidas developing and releasing widely available products that everyone was excited about like they did in 2015-2017? They have driven Boost, NMDs (especially R1s) and somehow even 4D into the ground. Adidas started to rest on their laurels and flood the market with trash meanwhile Yeezy actually is pushing boundaries with design (i.e. Foamrunners, 450, boots, etc. etc.) like Adidas was doing just a few years ago.If all your looking for is hype shoes that puts you in a certain box.

It's just funny to read that LITERALLY EVERYTHING besides Yeezy's that Adidas sells is "a bunch of trash"
This idea of "How can I get to ICON status if they don't let me win all the hype releases, which are the only thing I go after" is kind of funny too
Like you can't get mad at Adidas for holding down the people who really love their brand and hold them down year round, as opposed to those who show up once a month, exclusively for hype drops. Those drops sell themselves... Now socks on the other hand...
Poor marketing. Dunks were sitting until Travis got them popular again. 700s are my favorite boost of all time but you aint going to convince me that adidas forums aren't better than 90% of the stuff yeezy drops. All it takes is somoene like Jerry or someone like Kanye to wear them to start the hype train. Those shoes you mentioned started selling when Kanye wore the first UB, because they were sitting as well. That's how stuff sells the majority of the time.If this is the case why isn't Adidas developing and releasing widely available products that everyone was excited about like they did in 2015-2017?

It seems like, outside of Yeezy, Adidas is pretty much dead in terms of creativity and the brand simply doesn't have the back catalogue of classics they can slap on different cws to and people will eat up like Nike and Jordan Brand does (for the record, Nike/JB are also trash at developing new models but are really good at reworking old ideas for older models).
If Adidas brought back the excitement and brand innovation they had in 2015-2017, I guarantee you people would be more excited about their other, non-Yeezy products.
Lol Kanye never wore NMD R1s, they were a great design and Adidas ran them into the ground. I remember at one point even Inikis were reselling lmaoPoor marketing.

What I meant that the boost hype started once Kanye wore UBs(yeah he wore previous boosts but the hypetrain started when he wore 1.0s) . If it weren't for that then UBs would still be sitting and EQT boosts and NMD would not receive the same attention they did when they released. I agree with the same boost variants but the new NMD looks promising. The biggest issue with adidas is their poor marketing and bad collabs Nike destroys adidas in those departments.Lol Kanye never wore NMD R1s, they were a great design and Adidas ran them into the ground.
I agree on Waves, they’re a fantastic design but it’s been almost 10 years since the Ultraboost dropped and Adidas doesn’t seem interested in pushing the boundaries that it was previously doing. Instead we get trash collabs (all that LEGO trash, for example) and dumb boost variants nobody wants. Yeezy, on the flipside, is actually still pushing design in a way that Adidas and even Nike/JB are both not doing so.
Cause they know ppl will buy em. It’s a great feeling to be wearing a sneaker that your favorite player wore.Why nike paid billions to lebron, jordan to endorse sneakers.
Ye might be the only one daring to push things people aren’t seeing normally but not all of that is a hit ,nor does it appeal to the mainstream. 350s are sort of mainstream but even ye said they were a reinvention of something he saw working (roshe’s) and we can’t act like 350 V2s haven’t been beaten into the ground. All those big weird boots look better on women with the exception of prob desert boots(which are just 500’s in boot form). Preference for what you like is cool but in my opinion 450s ain’t it, slides are simple and comfortable so they get a pass, 350s need a redesign, foam runners are interesting , 500 lows don’t do it for me. 700 V1s are dope, 700 V2s aren’t my cup of tea after owning them, 700 V3s are cool but need boost for comfort. Don’t get me started on Minivans. QNTMs are fire but have virtually no hype and redundant colorways. 500 highs are dope but people don’t like a basketballesqe style shoe today and the 1 shoe we need (750s)they won’t bring back or redesign because y’all keep dying them trash a** 350s. Most Yeezys won’t end up on the same level as a Jordan 1,3,4,5,6,or11, Nike dunk, Air Force 1, Stan Smith, Chuck Taylor, gel lite 3s, Adidas forums or even adidas sambaI agree on Waves, they’re a fantastic design but it’s been almost 10 years since the Ultraboost dropped and Adidas doesn’t seem interested in pushing the boundaries that it was previously doing.

YEEZY BOOST 700 "Wave Runner" 2021 Restock Revealed
The YEEZY BOOST 700 OG "Wave Runner" will be restocking soon.yeezymafia.com
nobody told me these shoes have Boost technology inside.
i though these were right up Plastic bottoms and soles...Done.
IMHO, they ruined the 350 legacy with these trash Monos and the clear stripes. 350's are literally my fav yeezy and I don't think I will ever stop liking them, but they gotta stop making the ones mentioned above.along with all the classic 350 colorways everyone loved so much before they started doing all the variations like MX, clear stripe, mono, etc.
Don't think I've seen that photo, but it sounds cool.For me, I was buying every single pair of 350 up until the Cream or Sesame. I have a picture somewhere in this thread with every adidas yeezy up until that point.
DANGit’s a very old photo. Not pictured are 950 boots, blush 500’s, mauve 700’s, and sesame and butter 350. After that, I skipped on a bunch of releases. I still have every pair in this photo except the frozen yellows.

That Kanye will continue to spend his energy on a random a** white guy rather than fixing YS, releasing and scaling the GAP collab, and giving us shoes we actually want (more foams and slides, knit/insulated/dino boots, 700 v2s, turtle dove retro etc).
