Yeezys have been discounted off and on since before the infamous hate speech. After that the flood gates pretty much opened and now 350s, 700s, etc have been on sale in store and online.

I said from Adidas. They've tried to stay away from that. The other retailers buy these Yeezys at 40 to 50% off the retail price. They can still make their money even with the discounts and they want to clear inventory. Then again who knows with Adidas. They thought Jonah Hill was the white savior that was going save their business. Not surprisingly it never happened.

Well FedEx failed to deliver my shoes and sent them back to adidas and I’m getting refund. And with that I’m done with FedEx and adidas and Yeezy. A fitting end I shouldn’t have brought them anyway. I’m done.

Got my resin slides in a few days from the restock. I went Tts, as I have with all the recent slides but I think I should’ve sized up on this particular pair

Nobody wanted QNTMs and 380s for retail though… Those things were bricking in 2020-2021 when literally EVERYTHING was selling out lol

I kinda agree with this. Nike/JB nor Adidas themselves have really come up with a suitable, fashionable replacement for Slides or Foams tbh. Seems like those two models in particular really resonated with ppl, esp at their respective pricepoints.
I think 350s and 700s did so as well but they pumped out so many cws of those during the partnership that I think a lot of ppl lost interest from a hype/resale standpoint (esp with 350s). 350s in particular were feeling the same effect Panda Dunks are now, where they used to be hyped up all over social media but that decline happened pretty sharply as more and more releases occurred.
350s and 700s (V1 & V2s) are also golden models in the hypebeast era of sneakers so there is definitely a lot of nostalgia for that 2015-2017/2018 run they had.

I think prices are gonna go up but not because of a collector’s premium. It’ll just be a dwindling pair availability premium that any shoe that released a year or more gets for the most part. You see it on pairs that aren’t even particularly popular the time and almost always only on DS pairs too.
The biggest thing holding many Yeezys back is the whole sock/moccasin/unibody shoe aesthetic is dated and aging and folks have moved on. Even for the 350 v2. Part of that has to do with the gap in releases that happened when the partnership ended. Yeezys were the only ones keeping that aesthetic alive. Some of their more timeless shoes like the 700 v1 and v2 will do better because they’ve got a more traditional timeless designs but later iterations like the v3 and mnvn won’t be that desired.

Be thankful it wasn't "stolen". Never deal was such trash before. Fedex blamed Adidas. Adidas blamed Fedex. Customer service was a joke. I didn't do a chargeback because Adidas was banning people that did. Maybe I should have though in hindsight. At least it's almost over. If you want to know what Nike did, they refunded me back in one hour after I called. Of course UPS played the same games as Fedex.

I think so.
Adidas will probably sell the stock to remaining retailers but most of the recent releases were manufactured after 2022, probably so Adidas could honor the manufacturing contacts they had in place in 2022 when things ended.
Honestly, it was a good run, in the 2000s-2020s, I can't think of any other company putting out new, non-retro models that resonated with sneaker culture as well as Yeezys did. Nike probably came the closest with the flyknit running shoe craze (and even roshes a little bit before that) but even that was relatively short-lived. Ironically, the Adidas Boost hype was up there as well but I'm sure a lot of that had to do with Ye wearing UBs and turning that model's hype from non-existent to extremely hyped, esp with Boost being used on the initial run of 350 V1s and 750s.

wouldn't care if it was 5 bucks. it's the principle of the thing. i imagine people who pay for something want the something they paid for. maybe they don't want to give free loans to billionaires.
