Please re-read what you quoted, “In the photo I saw on the SNKRS app”. Also look above to see the one photo I’m referring to.
Photo implies one single photo.
So you were blind to every photo but the SNKRS one.
Man if you could only see all of
therealest1
IG posts then you coudda saved yourself some trouble.

They are clearly yellowed lol you need a color blind test lol
picasso swerve
These do not look as yellow compared to the actual product. It’s not about being “blind” like you are implying.

I'm not sure I like the yellowing. Over time that'll happen on its own. The rest of them looks brand new so why would they add the yellowing.

I’ll take the color blind test as long as you take a reading comprehensive test.

Don’t like the yellowed midsole. Looks worse in real life than on the internet. Maybe my taste is different since I’m old and the “aged” look is more appealing to the current youth I had the OG true blues in high school and most of the subsequent white cement retros since 1994. White cements are supposed to look clean. Just my opinion. This is Niketalk

Y’all sound like the guitar community now.
Long story short - old guitars are usually really popular and held to the highest of regards, and most old guitars age as people play them and use them in various capacities.
A while ago (like 8 years ago or so), guitar manufacturers started making new guitars that looked old / beat up. (Similar to what’s happening with the shoe game now)
It ranges from “light relic” to “heavy relic”.
Light relic
Heavy relic
Both guitars above are actually brand new from the custom shop. Hand made to look old and beat up.
I’d say what we’re seeing with these and the L&F’s is an example of a very “light relic”.. and now I’m wondering if shoe brands will really someday try for a “heavy relic” fad.
I do know that the argument currently being had with the yellowing and whether some like it or not, or “it’ll happen over time”, is EXACTLY the same argument people have over these faux aged guitars.

so wait because it's making no sense.Send them back like I did. I can’t get jiggy with the pre-yellowed midsole while the laces and whole upper look white and new.
Leather looks like it’s made from wrinkly ballsack
you sent them back because you didn't care for the yellowing which was part of the marketing for this pair and didn't realize it based off of one picture with odd lighting? This thread is almost 260 pages deep and pics /youtube review videos of real and fugazi early pairs that all showed the yellowing have been all over this thread but you still had an issue? the entire gimmick behind this shoe is aged.
That's like saying you'd send back L&F 1's because the collar leather was more "cracked" than what you thought.
and my 2012 jordan 4 cements I pulled outta storage have yellowed netting and white leather and laces so i don't see the corralation of the uppers looking new. did you want them to come scuffed?
