I mean "A fool is easily parted with his money". The seller is dead wrong but at the same time I find it hard to have any sympathy for a buyer who
1. Cleary haven't done any research, why would a seller let go of a 3.5k+ shoe for $800?
2. Knows the shoes are fake and doesn't care.

Man there's no way that yellowing was intentional. If that was the case why not just make it yellow from the jump since the rest of the sneaker already had the deconstructed design. I think Virgil bull****ting with that explanation of the yellowing. Probably just ran with that idea after the fact just to save face.

That's true. I mean look at what he did with the OW5. Made the bottoms yellow from the start since it was eventually gonna get like that. I do think he somewhat corrected the bleeding issue on the AJ1 though since the UNC didn't have that issue. Or maybe just because it was blue? Either way, I like my stuff icy. Don't care for the foam presto tongue when it's yellowed. Same as the upper toe box and the other areas that become yellow on the AJ1. That's just me though

the material on OW Chi AJ1 and OW UNC AJ1 are different, hence why you don't see the same type of yellowing/fraying as the chi pair

A lot of people in here not understanding what oxygen does to materials over time. Just like your clear soles yellow over time.... So does exposed foam, just a lot faster because of what it is.
It was by design. No conspiracies. Don't overthink it.

Will keeping them in the plastic wrap speed up the yellowing process on the upper?
