i don't understand how my 2011 pair has already started to yellow but my dmp pair still has no signs of yellowing smdh

Yea, others have mentioned this as well previously in the thread...different quality materials is the reason most are attributing this to...

230 is an alright price for a VVNDS pair but why not go a little higher. DS pairs can be found for 250-300.

Decided not to rock mines at the Drake Club Paradise Tour cause I knew everybody and their momma would have theirs out. And to no surprise Concords and Playoffs XII's were everywhere. Mines is till DS just waiting for a good day to rock them joints..

The Concord craze will always be remembered as a major turning point in the sneaker game. For better or for worse.

Finally after 6 months, I was able to cop 2 pairs for a decent price... Paid $510 for 2 DS pairs of Concords.

They should do it online.

my gf is just un-dsing today

...she took them out the box & they were still icy

....talking about she thought she already wore them

 

[spoofy]

I just went to check on my DS pair and there is yellowing around the pods. Makes me sad but oh well, they are meant to be worn and will be soon.

 

[po2345]

Got a 3rd pair from a good friend today. Can't get enough Concords!

PO

No doubt about that.

Same way I felt before I wore mines bro.

Then I started wearing.

Minds well get the uses/wears out while they're still semi-new.

UNDS mine tuesday to go see Batman. It felt soo good!

Same.. there is a like a super thin rim around the concord part.

 

[Nike Still Sux]

The tinted soles seem to yellow faster, but in isolated spots around the pods. It's hard to explain.

 

[sunshineblotters]

Damn i hate seeing everyone in their concords and BCIIIs. My phone broke and I had to spend $300 for a new one. That caused me to miss both the BCIIIs and this.

I'm not going to try to be an expert but I remember I read somewhere that the blue tint in the soles helps by containing the yellowing in isolated spots rather than the whole sole.

 

[lastchance021]

Same here haven't wore my pair yet but you can already see yellowing, not surprised, time to wear them soon.

 

[Nike Still Sux]

Still debating on when I will retrobrite these.

 

[kennyisdead911]

Yup, as expected after reading all about the premature yellowing I just checked my pairs....YUP both of my DS pairs are yellowing. What can I do to slow/stop this? Or is it just another way JB is effin' us over...?

 

[Nike Still Sux]

As long as the yellow stays near the pods for the time being, I can deal with it.

I have 1 worn pair with minor yellowing and another DS pair with 0 yellowing. I took the paper out of the box and put the paper into a Ziploc then laid it at the bottom. Then I put 2 silica gel packs into the box.

 

[lastchance021]

No matter what you do (silica gel, ziploc etc.) The soles will turn yellow, there is nothing you can do to prevent it

 

[da r entertainment]

Months later and I'm still salty that I missed out on these |I

 

[parada45]

Lost all my hookups thanks to this release.

Got a pair tho.
