This is what I thought I remembered, but it seemed like a consensus that they were neon so I didn't say anything

Yep, they used to be as white as the highlights over the airbags on the midsoles are. I think what yellowed on them was the interior plastic lining of the airbag itself, which you cant even see once the outer lining starts to cloud over with rot from the polyurethane breaking down. I can see how people would mistake age yellowing for aged volt if they never had or saw the originals tho.
These are some of my old wdywtd pics that show the bubbles up close:
Sadly, these arent wearable anymore and now sit on the shelf. This retro is dropping just in time imo.
