ON THE 2011 CONCORD RETRO 11 THEY DID. I MEAN THEY DIDN'T CHANGE IT COMPLETELY BUT THEY MINIMIZED THE YELLOWING OF THE SOLES OVER TIME BY REPLACING THE NEW ICY SOLES WITH A BLUISH MATERIAL RATHER THAN THEN 100% TRANSPARENT ICE ON SOLES.

YELLOW IS JUST PART OF THE GAME AS TIME PASSES. THERE IS NO WAY TO COMPLETELY PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING ON ICY SOLES.
