Honestly name a better $40 backpack. Praying we get a grey or dark blue version.
I understand why some people wish it had a laptop sleeve but I think it's fine without - you should be keeping your laptop in its own bag imo.
Which sucks because the same thing happened to the knit rnr and now that it's been reevaluated as a misunderstood classic I bet yall wish we had all those crazy colors they made
I noticed that with all the stuff he stripped from the site, the remaining stuff is pretty true to size stuff, right?
Like I have a wb-01 in 2 and it is almost too small.
Did they get rid of all the oversized stuff?
I'm just glad I ordered the wj and wp and double layer t before they took them down.
Love these for quick trips to dunkin

JD Sports deal has me in my conspiracy brain - about a month or two ago we started seeing the boxes, I think that they've been stockpiling a large percentage of manufactured pairs. I think we stared seeing boxes then because they were finalizing the deal, adjusting prices to find the sweet spot for JD to sign.
I think they were looking for a retail partner this entire time, sold the SL-01s for $20 to collect market data, raised the price to show retailers that even at mark-up the demand doesn't slow down, and used all that + stockpile to finalize the contract with JD.
We were just market research this whole time, he was using us as bate to catch his whale. Would love to know the exact number of units JD bought of each.
Respectfully, I think it's genius. Happy to
Support. I love seeing slides sitting on shelves surrounded by other shoes that wouldn't exist if they hadn't done it first.
Just wanted to give me two cents on this shoe, a new favorite.
I think that average IQ sneaker heads rejected this model because 1, they have no break-in patience, and 2, this was released at one of the worst times to be a Kanye fan.
Anyways, yea, these are masterpieces. Learn to break your shoes in, gang- if you'd ever bought a decent boot or dress shoe you'd know that sometimes the comfiest shoes have a break in period. It doesn't mean they're "too small" or "size up." These are literally built like casts - they're meant to be tight to conform to your feet. If you size up they'll look oversized and dumb.
I can't believe people didn't like these on release. Definitely my new favorite Yeezys of all time.
Yzy pondscum rotten potato runners + Kirkland jeans
Got the knit runners finally. Sized up 1/2 a size. Wish I'd gone tts tbh!
These were my grails (though I kind of wanted them in sulfur but oh well.)
These have a reputation for being uncomfortable, is that just because they're snug? To me they feel like wrapping my feet in memory foam mattress material, and the bottoms are super squishy.
Anyways these seem to have aged well, people like them more now than when they dropped originally.
Finally found some knit rnrs in my size and I walked into the convenience store and everybody stopped and looked at me because these shits are louder than a smoke detector wtf
I'm guessing the tan and black boots will be $150-200, I understand the concept of having everything be sub-$100 but there's just no way. When you start getting into this kind of construction, adding laces, hardware, etc, prices go up. I'd pay $170 for the boots.
I'm guessing the runners will be $80-$100.
Now that we all realize that the AQ was fire here are my dream colors

HT-01, YZY GAP t shirt, WP-01, 500 boots
So there was a site doing Yeezy gap tees for $5 if you bought them in bulk, so I got full runs in both large and medium. I already had one in small, which fits like a normal, non-baggy shirt. (I got both because I was planning on giving whichever size I didn't pick away as a gift.)
Anyways, I tried on both the medium and the large and they seemed very similar, except the trim on the collar is a bit wider on the large.
Does anyone know why the large is barely any bigger than the medium?
I don't really feel like posting pics right now, but am I the first one to get it?
It's super nice, very solid. I feel pretty silly having 3 copies of the same coat, though.
As with every other item I've ordered from Yeezy.com, my opinion has shifted positive, and I actually really appreciate this piece a lot more now.
The boxy fit is 100% Yeezy, and the stitching is just under the arms and up the spine, making the look pretty unique despite how basic it is.
A few people on here complained about the fabric on the long sleeve portion of the shirt and the elastic cuffs, and I think these people are missing a pretty important piece which is that this shirt is meant to be convertible.
In other words the elastic bands are meant to go over your biceps when you want a short sleeve shirt.
This is where the brilliance of this shirt lies, because if the extension sleeves were any thicker this would not be comfortable, but because they're a linen-like weight and texture, they tuck into the short sleeves of the shirt quite nicely, and manage to disappear completely, which leads me to believe that this is an intentional feature. I initially complained that the elastics were too loose and couldn't understand why they weren't fitted to the wrists, but now it's obvious to me that they're actually meant to go over your bicep, so of course they're loose at the wrist.
It'd be cool if Yeezy would be more explicit about how you're meant to wear their clothes, but I think Ye really wants everything to be self-explanatory.
Anyways, yeah, amazing shirt. Hopefully they do more colors, I think a white shirt / grey sleeves colorway and a slate blue shirt / navy sleeves colorway would be nice.
