"grown folk shoes"

I'm not sure bout everything else but when it comes to shoes, NT is home of the old man argument.

Don't like what I like? You're just not old enough

[delajsr]

those are the zx 8000 x tubular tho

 

[airdhazzal]

No, the leather loafers I wear are groan folk shoes. Yeezys are high school, early college type shoes you wear to parties or to kick it with friends.

 

[abdulai]

i know, just point the similarity..

 

[delajsr]

oh alright, first picture didn't load at first 

 

[jape]

there's nothing grown up about these, they look just as causal as the other yeezys

thats def not true

 

[jape]

 
as "grown *** man though, wouldnt you want to wear real (dress) shoes to bar, lounge, nice restaurant?

agreed but there are a lot of places where casual sneakers are appropriate for the occasion...and its no damn fun wearing dress shoes all the time. i like to switch it up. 

casual sneakers, boots, dress shoes, chukkas etc.  

i like these but no way im copping.  350 is too much for any sneaker imo.  

 

[mehoneydee]

^^True, but tha'ts not the argument being made

...or should I say, "discussion" or the point

 

[kanyeezy411]

Imagine Kanye will wear the solar red ones tomorrow during the Grammys and Nike restocks the Red October during the show 

Kanye will start ranting immediately 

 

[addtocartfailed]

They look alright on feet, which is what I want to do with em. I like that it's dramatically plain.

 

[mantis toboggan]

wheres that new album and movie tho 

 

[ismashyellabone]

I like them. i would buy them the first chance  I have.

 

[thegatorviking]

People are like, finally a high end sneaker I can wear out to a club.



Like there isn't 50 other high end sneaker brands out there, you could already buy but you dont. LOL

 

[hiphopisdead]

Best way to promote the new Yeezy would be to have Kim K. strip down butt naked like she did in Paper mag but this time wearing nothing but these shoes

nike isn't that petty.  they have a prestige to uphold and nike has moved on a long time ago from the whole kanye fiasco.  yall just haven't.  hypebeasts 

 

[tay1]

People still use the word hypebeast?

 

[candh23]

They still out there

Btw: http://hypebeast.com/2015/2/adidas-...oints-for-the-yeezy-yzy-boost-yeezy-750-boost 

So the gray might be 250, and another model is 350 ?

lol this is beyond true

its people trying to create hype for a good resell


trying to convince themselves that its a justifiable purchase


look are the shoes bland

yes very


is the design very lackluster

yes very


get over it

its not the end of the world here lol

plenty of other shoes to cop and for far less money

if this didnt have kanye name attached to it 99% of ya wouldnt care or even cop anyway


so just keep that EXACT mentality

if this was a standard regular adidas original drop

people most would be like mehh and some would cop

just like other stuff


and as stated there are a TON of higher end sneakers out there to wear to a club already on the market and have been for a long *** time already


granted i feel if your going to a club that allows sneakers its not exactly the most high end place though

but im sure some of ya think the strip club is an actual club lol

 

[dvdxtreme]

 
I like them. Will i be able to get a pair? not-likely.

You don't have to worry about getting a pair, a reseller near you will get them for you and gladly tax you for it.   

 

[QU!K]

Going back in time...Something tells me these are one of the 3.

nike isn't that petty.  they have a prestige to uphold and nike has moved on a long time ago from the whole kanye fiasco.  

nike is petty as hell, they don't have prestige, legacy or any of that, they are a big *** company that wants money or did you entirely miss 2014 and 2013 making all red models and solar color way models of nearly every shoe?

They sued some higher employees that went to adidas.

they literally claim rights to their retail employees ideas up until like a year after they start working there because they think they are that innovative an envirorment.

dont defend nike lol.

 

[thegatorviking]

I will be one of the first to admit, I am buying them cause of the Artist and name behind them. Period.


Otherwise, I wouldn't be as into these shoes.


I just see people lying to themselves on posts. Lets all be real, we want em cause Kanye made em. Period.


They are not the greatest shoe ever made. Sorry Steve Jobs. lol

 

[airedweezy]

Can't wait for these dope sneaker kanye did it again

 

[mart da god]

thats def not true

high top
thick cross strap
Jordan 3-esque toe box

only reason yall saying they're "grown man ish" is because they are all grey

it's another iteration on the Yeezy 1 silhouette, they just don't have an accent color. which is not a bad thing
