ADIDAS X YEEZY COLLAB OFFICIAL THREAD *NO LC's PLEASE*

[big atz]

Naw this a straw man argument/flawed logic - the reason those sit is bc they are fake Yeezy slides. ppl don't want them bc they are fake not bc they aren't scarce.

Yeah I'm definitely passing on those bootleg joints because they are exactly that.

shout out to the brilliance of Kanye....

however, i'm always more impressed by the artist/designers that turn his vision into something tangible. the sketch artist, etc

That man might be the "genius" with the most help and assistance ever

 

[jopx]

There is genius in hiring the right help and knowing how to delegate as well.

I've hit off YS exactly three times (Slate 500 Highs that didnt fit , black friday black statics, and first bone slides) and Confirmed exactly once (700v3 Azareth).

 

[nuclear1990]

The real, 100% original, 70$ foam slides nobody ever thought about doing before the genius that kanye west is

No one said it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. But you know damn well those UO are knockoffs of the Yeezy slides.

I can buy Birkenstocks for $150. I can hit up Walmart for some Fakenstocks for $15. It ain't the same.

I've hit off YS exactly twice (Slate 500 Highs that didnt fit and first bone slides) and Confirmed exactly once (700v3 Azareth).

Those bones are highly sought after... the HIGH HIGH HIGH.

What I was saying is those slides ARE the knockoff to Nike slides/Crocs and so on.
I'm sure they're patented and everything but nothing about them is original except for ****** lining up (online) to buy them.
kanye really applied that Steve Jobs formula by turning a basic product into a "revolutionary" one through heavy marketing and communication

i'd have to do some research. but i'm not sure if Kanye is the first person to come out with 1 piece foam slides. so he may have been sold a certain mold and added to it (the rigged bottom)

Kanye ain't the first one for anything, ask ray j nem

 

[mkj]

Cmon son, people dont want these cause they dont have the finest leather and suede the Yeezy slides have.

leather/suede slides would run you about 300 usd.

bro MacBooks and iPhones were/are 100% revolutionary as products - they didn't need marketing to be great.

YS is useless.

I miss the old site

 

[Raji Lowenthal]

Karma and my Yeezy slander have come home to roost I can't hit jack on adidas or YS It's only mattered to me recently...

Computers and smartphone existed before iMacs and iPhones, the marketing and ability of apple to make these super coveted items is what's revolutionary.

I'd say it's a blessing in disguise

foam runners

the design of the foam runner is unique. however, the whole concept is based off of Crocs

 

[vinotwofour]

can't hit a pair of toddler slides for the life of me. Been trying for toddler ones for the last 4-5 releases. By the time I'll actually win a pair of toddler size, my daughter gonna wear adult sizes

 

[skala]

Need these onyx slides

 

[rbk93]

If all Confirmed raffles are like this, don't think I'll ever enter another one again.

A W will make a world of a difference again, but man...

 

[jopx]

This feels like sitting outside the principal's office and I don't know if he's gonna call Ma Dukes or not... purgatory.

I'm pretty sure he didn't. I'm man enough to say that I'm buying because it's tied to his name.

Now we're talking.
A vast majority of people buying his products do it because it's HIS s h i t but wanna act like it's all about the products.
No.
It's about being kanyesexual in some (a lot) instances or about being seen, validated etc

 

[SoleSzn]

While waiting on my L from this trashass confirmed app, SNS just hit me with the W on the Pures.

 

[utahman130]

Why does it take confirmed 3+ hours to tell you the results? Nike does it in like five minutes.
