    I didn't like these at the start, but that is almost the reason I like them because the more I look at them the more I like them. I now really want them and I love the different materials used.

      If you compare to Asics and Saucony, most Jordans, Nikes and Adidas are overpriced. There are some outliers like the Adidas Iniki and Nike Skylon II which pricepoints are acceptable. The Jordan 1 Shadows are not too bad... They were 160-180?

    • @rayrock23

    Honestly the black ones are nice to rock every day. My favorite have to be the super moon yellow and the reason that they don’t have multiple colors is because the shoe was made for a monochromatic look, style. Also adiprene plus was a Adidas top-of-the-line cushioning before boost so if adiprene is 9 and boost is 10 and I don’t have to pay an extra $100 for boost like the 700 that drop today I’ll take adiprene all day..

  • @anti-parasocial
    @anti-parasocial 6 лет назад +8

    I have the blush and I love them. I think a lot of the hate around this shoe is centered around the fact that it doesn't have boost. It's still comfortable, they can get hot and stuffy and start feeling like pillows.
    But these things are premium. The materials feel so good.

      @@w.h.johnson404 I haven't tried the 700's yet but if the laces aren't tight there will be alot of foot room , but when the laces are tight it's a perfect fit, the tongue is somewhat connected to the shoe, but it's a easy shoe to put on, and for padding the heel is like a pillow, and the shoe overall has like a medium padding upper, which I think is perfect for this shoe, overall I would give this shoe an 8 for comfort and style and materials

    They are already retro style sneakers. They will get better and better with time. Just like the 700. Watch how much the OG colorway of the waverunner will be when they permanently stop producing them and move onto the v2 700 and beyond. These are the beginning of an era and will be worth a fortune in years to come

    I just bought these exact same yeezys on Stock X. I almost bought the Blush but decided on Yellow moon because it’s so different. Do you like the yellow moon or Blush better? Seemed to me like the Blush was too boring. I also liked the moon yellow because it looks super old like how shoes yellow after a while. I thought that was super smart for Kanye to think of that. Also you turned me on Jordan’s. I got sick of having the same Jordan’s but different color ways.

      They were sitting on YS for a couple of days after even, if I recall correctly. I remember being surprised they were still up and passing anyway. Happy with my Blushes.

      The more people see them the more people want them. Stock images look wack but on feet people really like them. I know at least 3 people I wore them around who copped after seeing my pairs
