The way to get Yeezy slides is to buy adidas stuff. The adidas account points often lead to more dubs - I’m an icon (top level) and I think I’ve hit 3 slides - two in one go on the most recent drop. Enter for more Yeezys and buy more adidas stuff on your account / buy stuff for people who want adidas stuff (I buy for my friends so I get the points)
It’s not a guarantee, just increases your chances… although you may be a high level think about how many people are (the resellers that buy Yeezys all the time so their points are Sky high, the adidas fans who’ve been there since day one)… although there are no higher levels I think the more points the better odds although that’s all it is ODDS, it doesn’t guarantee. It’s also easier for me in Europe. Although Europe’s population is double America’s I’d say the shoe market is a lot smaller so it’s easier to hit for me
Yooo, TJ! Digging the way you broke it down. Not gonna lie, I wasn’t even going to watch the whole video. Glad I did though. I see what you did there. 😉 I like it and it definitely makes sense. Some won’t agree with you, but yes it does make sense. Great content. 🔥👊🏼
I definitely paid resale on release day for the Soot colorway after catching numerous L’s because I absolutely loved the color and wanted to give my beloved Resin pair a rest. I’ve paid $200+ for other items/services so it’s not a stretch for me especially if I’m wearing them more than any sneaker I own. 🤷🏾♀️
Naajah I think you're the very perspective I tried to understand and I'm glad I did. If someone works from home they're definitely wearing these too more than shoes.
I’ve gone from working at home to a more active job plus ai have a toddler so they’re still a necessity for me to wear during downtime. Honestly my cap to pay for the slides was $175 (before taxes and shipping) because it was release day and I only wear a Men’s size 6/7.
Completely agree on value vs raw cost. This is why I have been saving for the Olivia Kim 4’s while letting a lot of other pairs wait. All black 4’s can be worn a lot more than something that has colors that need to be coordinated with.
I’m willing to pay resale for sneakers especially yeezy but I can’t do it for this slides…..I want a pair snd I’ve tried to get them every time for retail but it’s always an L for me….if someone has a size 7 for me for a responsible price…I’d be grateful!
I respect that, let me ask this, why isn't the $200 worth it resale but $200 is retail for a shoe you may not wear more than 5x a year or even at all in the next year?
@@TalksWithTJ I definitely understand your question and it makes sense….I guess I feel that I can wear the sneaker all the time for many reasons, activities, and etc but paying that price for a rubber slide that I can’t and won’t wear in the winter or bad weather just doesn’t work for me. Also I think it’s a mental thing knowing the shoe retails for $60 and paying 200-300 for basically a sandal doesn’t work for me. Again this is just my opinion and way of thinking and it’s nothing wrong with the people who do pay these prices for them. I guess I just don’t want it that bad. Yet I’ve spent 2000-5000 on Louis Vuitton purses. Again it’s a matter of priority, quality of materials, and just how bad you want it.🤷🏾♀️
@@TalksWithTJ I’m a size 7 in yeezy 350 they don’t run right on me I still have some room to wiggle around. What would you recommend on the slides…should I do 7 or 8?
This is a very good point. I wear slides everyday. This makes me think differently. I would pay $400 for a shoe that I would wear only a few times but the thought of paying $200 for a slide that i would wear everyday used to turn me off.
I’m sorry but I can’t pay $200+ for something that cost $60 retail, I would rather walk Barefoot on broken glass than to continue to reward the same people who got the game corrupted buying up all the sneakers with bots,snatching up everything from the real people who’s actually wearing them but to each it’s own
Been wanting a pair of slides for a while , but never hit on any raffles. I refuse to pay resale for these, since the only reason I would wear is just for home use. Pass, on to the next release.
There are comfortable slides you can wear every day for much cheaper. Just because you can wear these every day, that doesn't justify $200 for foam slides. Think about what you're buying, not how much you'll use it. People try to convince themselves its worth it just because of the name Yeezy associated with it..
No one said they weren't other options and if was explicitly stated this wasn't to justify a purchase, it was to understand value. Take the Yeezy out of it, the focus was on daily function/value.
@@TalksWithTJ you gotta add price into the function/value tho lolll. If youre spending $200+ on foam, you gotta rethink your financial intelligence haha

That's some insight I didn't know and hopefully helps some people out!
I have a good amount of point and still never hit on a drop….some people have less then I do and hit so idk…I just don’t have good luck with raffles…
I’m elite 4 on adidas and I had entered for all 3 slides and didn’t win 😢🥺 I think for yeezy products it doesn’t count 😩

That’s interesting because I’ve only won 2 yeezys ever and that was like 2-3 years ago when I used to buy from adidas very often
Sock game is on point. Also very important when it comes to the slides. 👍🏾
No but the light gray ✨ Waffle i will pay resell big time but the slides do look good TJ big time 👌 💯💥
Are the blue socks from the taupe/steel blue pack or the purple/dark blue pack?
Taupe/steel
@@TalksWithTJ Thanks! Love the look
You literally just convinced me to go ahead an buy the soot.. my size after tax an all literally comes to $200.16 so 55 cents a day it's def worth it.
Thanks for watching Tyre and enjoy your new slides!
Howthey look black and not dark brown??
They're brown
Opened up a whole new way of thinking about wearing shoes.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Thank you and I definitely got a lot of pushback for the video but if people take the slide out of it the focus was value/comfort.
if i’m a size 6-6.5 in yeezy 350s, will a size 8 in the slides be too big even with socks on?
I would get a 7, I'm the same in Yeezys and have a 7

Facts I spend hundreds for sneakers that I wear every once in a while, I don’t mind paying for these that I’ll wear daily
I really love your channel ,glad I found it

I see them subscribers up… haven’t checked in in a minute…. Congrats!
Appreciate it

Stay the course and can't wait till you pick them up for your collection
Hello I need help I am a size 7w what size do I get in these???
Hmmm a 6 would just fit, 7 would ensure probably easier wear with socks
So outside the box with this one! Dropping needed knowledge 🙌🏾. I'd subscribe twice if i could lol
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 I appreciate you

@@CassandraReneeXOXO I feel the same exact way there’s no way I’m paying that much for a one piece of foam
And you get it!!!!!! It doesn't make sense for you for all the reasons listed but does to someone else for their reasons and you respect it
@@TalksWithTJ exactly…..I definitely respect it!
Cost per wear. That's always been the guidance I've followed since the days of 'What Not To Wear'. It was one of their mantras, but it stuck with me!
I miss them so much!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭
@@TalksWithTJ Right?! Where is Clinton Kelly these days?! He was my fave!!
Are you also a size 7 in the 350 v2?
Nope 6.5

I think I mentioned this in a previous video but John Elliott has great neutral socks, you might not like the price for a pair but to me it’s quality.
John Elliott has great quality indeed

Another banger video from tj...
👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
Where did u bought that mamba chains?
Stef Jewels
Great video!!! You got a point there 👍🏼
🙏🏽🙏🏽
I’m sorry but I can’t pay $200+ for something that cost $60 retail, I would rather walk Barefoot on broken glass than to continue to reward the same people who got the game corrupted buying up all the sneakers with bots,snatching up everything from the real people who’s actually wearing them but to each it’s own
Respect it. 👊🏽 Make sure you have an updated tetanus shot if you walk on that glass.
@@TalksWithTJ lmaooooo 😂🤣🤣🤣
I never pay resell for Yeezys but I am seriously considering picking up this pair at resell. I have the Pure and I am a fan!
Do whatever works best for you

Respect it all the way
Didn’t think about cost per wear … great vid as always !!
Thanks Lex
I still have 5 pairs of 350s I haven’t wore yet. I gotta step my game up. 🤦🏽♂️😂
Wear them, sell them for a pair you will wear. Lots of options
@@TalksWithTJ I want to wear them but my shoe purchase to shoe wear ratio is way off because of my work schedule.
Makes sense
Those look like Nike acg boots, they look 🔥 though I’ll wear those for sure
👊🏽
For sure I will pay resale for these, ty TJ
You're welcome Jackie
You broke that down. 😂
I tried, some will like it and some won't
For $200, I would rather get the FOG slides. More comfortable and better materials. I would cop the spot Yeezy Slides for $150
The California's are great and more versatile, yes. Big fan, still have to get a pair myself.
Any female that wears yezzy slides is my crush 😻
8:14 on foot😻
Hey I’m digging your nails nice.
🙏🏽
Honestly i see this slide still selling witout yeezy name on it😂😂...and obvs for much cheaper
It does, ASOS or someone already has a look alike
It's a sucker born everyday that's why they can resale them for $200 🤦🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
👍🏽

Not really but your opinion, you're entitled to it.
I paid resale for two pairs😭
But you're comfy aren't you?
@@TalksWithTJ I dunno yet😭, still waiting for them from stockx, got the glow green and the pure
Nice pickups
