i dont hate them, the colourway is wild. But from practical standpoint i can't see me wearing them. If you are older than 25 it just looks weird if you wear these orange-blue shoes.
I think they kinda fit a trail shoe vibe - like they would look good with the kind of outfit Seth has on in the video, washed out green, khaki-type pants, tans and greens and slate colors.
I think that shade of blue is beautiful. Kinda wish they did the whole monochrome color blocking in that navy blue suede. Or Color the sole navy or grey and keep those other grey accents with blue paneling. 🔥🔥🔥
glad you reviewed these before they dropped. Still gonna try and get them because I know no one who wears yeezys in my area. And I really like the 500s. I hope I get them..come on adidas app don't fail me.
If you think about it a flame doesn't have a consistent color either so they did a subtle job on the soles to represent that just my opinion I could be wrong.
I think that was the concept a 🔥 but IMO the execution isn’t it, a flame should blend I would say the sole orange is right blending upwards to a reddish yellow hue would have been better. All colours used are nice on their own, otherwise maybe use two but this is too much. Someone went crazy with 🖍
They look like lava pouring into the ocean. So... fire! First yz 500 I really want for myself. It’s a shame I can’t buy them officially in my region and resale+fees is just too high :/
Food suggestion: Buffalo wing with blue cheese drizzle? Not perfect but the orange sole and even the nubby shape brought Buffalo wings to mind. I watched the video when it premiered and re-watched today because I got a delayed W from retailer raffle.
It’s weird... my TTS is 9 also, & for Yeezys, I stay TTS... except the 500, 700 v3, & (*maybe) QNTM might be tight. I went TTS for the 500 utility black & they are SNUG. Thinking of trading for half size up
I went TTS and when they first arrive I thought I'd made a bad decision. After a few days wear they fit perfect for me. My other sneakers are going to get jealous because I've worn these since arrival. I often wear wild colors and/or shades of greens and greys. Very Earthy and these go well with them all. 5 Stars.
The midsole looks like it is 2 different materials. The softer material on top and more rubbery durable on bottom. Maybe thats why the color is different?
If the midsole is painted, I wonder how easy it would be to take the paint of, and if a white midsole would held it any But ye, trying to get my hands on them and see if I like them if i get them or not
As per usual, great stuff Seth. Also Seth: - 100s (or 1,000s?) of sneakers - 1 red flannel - 2 hoodies - 2 pairs of ugly pants with button snaps - 1 Yeezy team shirt - 2 hats
