Need to return these but it's going to be hard. First 6s since 2012 Olympics and the shape and overall build is so much better than it was then. Remastered program is good in my book.

What other colors are the VI's coming out in besides the Gatorade?

The other Gatorade and the CNY (boo) are the only ones I know of.

That's how they made the soles, even the Gatorade GRs have an off white sole. It doesn't bother me since, the sole is made to get dirty
To each their own. 2nd pair arrived today and what do you know icy blue. These are not made with the same sole as the Gatorades.

Would be pissed if I got sent a pre yellowed pair like that
Absolutely sucks. I’m gonna hit up soleheaven but idk what they’re gonna do for me from overseas.

No shade. But what do you expect them to do about it? There’s really nothing wrong with the shoe.

They get dirty yes, but the soles color doesn't change unless you beat them down

It changes color from oxidation whether you wear them or not. You can leave the other pair with the icy sole DS and eventually it too will begin to yellow. It’s inevitable. You can reverse it with sea glow or other de-oxidation methods...
Sucks though...

Yellowed sole = really nothing wrong with the shoe?

Maybe some of you of guys are too picky. There’s nothing wrong with the shoe in my opinion, especially when the sole will turn that color after the 3rd wear. I just don’t think contacting soleheaven would get him anywhere.

He could definitely contact Nike and get a discount code.

I ordered a few days ago and haven't received a shipping notification yet. I'm starting to think those are up in error or they do not actually have them in stock.

Did you contact them? SNS does good business. They won’t ignore you.

both sides make a good point. on 1 hand, if you paying that much for a pair of sneakers, you deserve to get em without the soles lookin like theyre on the 3rd+ wear. thats not unreasonable to expect. you copped new shoes, you want them to look new.
on the other hand, the soles gonna look like that after 3 or more wears anyways. its not like these type of soles hold up super well and dont discolor until a looooooong time. those joints discolor just from being stored in less than stellar environments. you aint even gotta wear em. so going through all that and dealing with the overseas aspect probably not worth it for this particular issue.
imo, me personally, ive never ever complained about slight discoloration issues with soles. only time i would is if they r PISS yellow,non-ds and dirty from obviously being worn or separation or something major like that. im only worried about the upper part of the sneakers because im careful with my kicks so i keep the upper looking new. but the sole is gonna look like crap regardless, unless i pull a GamerG and put a condom on em. that or wear kicks inside only on carpet and never go outside where its dirty, which makes 0 sense.

I usually cop stuff like this in store
I would’ve looked at mine at the counter and denied them right then and there
I have the 2014 reds and none of them are yellowed even after wear
defective wouldn’t be the right word tho but I get it
