then I will oop it to a NT member for retail
people ALWAYS say this so they can get help or info for the release, then they're ghost on that oop. Keep it real fam.
But there seems to be half sizes this time around. Doesn't that question the availability compared to turtles?

On a side note, how funny would it be if Adidas did the same thing concept did and made the release a major gr and said there were no returns lmao. They'd make a ton off of this release alone. Resellers would be very salty as well.
That would be a smart move. Tons of profit for adidas + everybody could cop for retail and resellers would be salty because 0 profit

 the mere fact that you guys think there is a $0 profit on a pair of yeezys. Don't matter the GR numbers, there will always be a profit to a pair of yeezys. 
 
Szenario: If everyone ate and there is still more pairs sitting on the shelves and online how in hell you want to make a profit? This wont be the case with the black pair but might be the case with the next 2 colorways. Adidas would be pretty unsmart if not producing much more pairs than the turtledoves... the hype for this model is there now, they could sell 100 times more pairs if they wanted

they dont make a profit on these. its the truth. adidas wont make back what they paid kanye for his contract.

Just because there are half sizes that doesnt mean they made extra. the numbers are the same as the turtle release. there was demand for the half sizes and they made them. that is all

If its true what you say this would mean that there is only half as much per size compared to the turtledove release... I highly doubt that
 
Don't need the black pair, think the turtledoves are a much better colorway. I wouldn't mind scoring a pair at retail to help pay for a pair of 750s though.

this is true.

instead of stores getting 10 size 10's, they get 5 size 10 and 5 size 10.5 and so on. but they will still get the same amount as the turtles. 

i believe i was the first here to write there were half sizes. i eve wrote the style number here for you guys. 

my info is legit.
 
I believe the total number of pirate blacks will be higher... total number at house of hoops germany was 40 pairs for the turtledove release. I will see it this time. If its 40 pairs total again then u were correct sir.

footlocker works differently because they get thousands for the whole company and then they decide which of their stores get what. this is same for any store with 15 or more stores i believe.

smaller boutiques will get the same amounts as before.

that scenario won't happen with these, maybe with the 950's, but not with the 350's. It's a very wearable and profitable model. You act as if "everyone ate" will only get 1 pair. There will be plenty of hoarders for multiple pairs.

The dude was talking about resellers not making a profit I believe, not Adidas. Adidas isn't making up the money they are paying Kanye, thats true. Its not about selling more Ye's to make up his deal. Its about him brining a culture that wouldn't ever look at Adidas as an option. Same thing with them offering Harden $15M per. They know they won't come close to selling that much in merchandise per year. They just need athletes/rappers on the roster to drive hype.

What does Kanye make per year with Adidas? Always wondered
 
who came up with these nicknames? Pirate? Turtle Dove? I feel weird saying turtle dove
 
There were only 3 Footlocker house of hoops in germany which had the turtle 350 boosts in stock. Berlin, munich and stuttgart. Berlin got 50 pairs, the other 2 stores got 40. Total of 130 pairs for all Footlocker HoH germany.

I was referring to the next 2 colorways which arent as wearable as the turtle dove / pirate black and which will be a GR.
 
But turtle doves never came in half sizes...

and you know this because you saw the next 2 colorways? the cw only says silver... 

and I was referring to resellers profitting, not adidas.

I didnt see the next 2 colorways but cant imagine a color even more wearable like the black or the turtledove cw. Can combine these 2 colors with almost every outfit. And I referred to resellers aswell

whatever the colorway, the model is wearable. Again, I hate bringing in that roshe comparison but the silhouette is similar and look at the ton of colorways of roshes. Unless the next yeezy boost colorway is banana yellow primeknit with that print making it look like a rotten banana and a yellow sole, I don't see the next GR yeezys "sitting on shelves". 

btw that "referring to resellers" part was directed towards the member that was talking about adidas not profitting when I said yeezys will always be a profit. 
 
When I have pirates and turtles I dont need red or blue... but thats just me. Never seen pics though so I might change my mind if the new colors really should kick a** but I am in doubt about that. Others who didnt manage to cop one of the first 2 cw should be able to cop the GR colorways with ease.
 
Beluga Blue/Black

Silver/Silver

Those are the next two rumored colorways shown on a list/invoice of other YZYSZN items.   

I don't see how those 2 colorways won't be as wearable. 
 
i hope they are decent looking because i already know im going to see them everywhere i go in the dmv
 
does pacsun do raffles? this is going to be my frist crack at a pair of yeezys so excuse my ignorance
