just looked at mine. no yellowing and I live in humid ***** japan. The setup i have is shoes in a ziploc, paper folded at the bottom of the box, two silica packs, bubble wrapped the concord box, and double boxed. Mine smell so good and love the fact the sole is holding up nice.

Maybe. I just don't know that the 2012 "bred" will look as nice as the 2011 Concord. Plus,since Nike has pushed the online release dates up, it's kind of hard to cop online and in store at the same time. Sure you could try to use your cell phone, but if you did, you would not be as attentive in the stores. Plus, you'd run the risk of dropping your phone! Mine isn't that expensive, but I phones and Galaxies cost alot!

I don't think the Breds won't come close to how chaotic the Concord release was. I'm about to clean mine right now Bar Keepers Friend on deck.

^^^ There's really no one answer to prevent it from "yellowing", it comes with age, though in this case its not even a year later but that's not the discussion here.
I keep my DS pair in box with a silica pack and hide it in my closet. It's holding up pretty good. My worn pair I put them in the plastic container after every wear I clean them off with soap and warm water. Thus far that is also doing very well...

Just wear the shoes, if possible.
They all yellow eventually anyways.

I agree. I think that the Concord is just a better looking shoe as it pertains to the "masses". Breds are a good looking colorway, and there is bound to be confusion with its release, but the Concord took sneaker releases to a whole new level. Just think, Nike (and possibly other companies) have changed their release methods to involve twitter, 8am releases, etc... because of all of the confusion that occurrs, but what started with this sneaker. I know that the cool grey 11 release did have some "crazyness" at various stores around the country, but it doesn't compare to what happened last December. Plus, some of us are still trying to get a pair (Anyone know of any places that may get some Concord restocks?) We'll just have to see what happens.

I was lucky copping my pair under retail from someone who needed money...Try the closet collector. I seen him get some not too long ago. He promises 100% real.......

That started with the Galaxy Foams, not the Concords. To me, it's the Space Jams that really blew the whole sneaker campout up to the point where it became "mainstream." The Concord release was where the popularity of camping out has reached its peak. Then the Galaxy Foams pushed that over its limit when people started camping out a whole week before release and caused so much chaos that some stores had to cancel their release. Nike started the whole RSVP system like, 2 days after this shoe's release. It was hilarious because I remember the confusion when the White Cement IVs came out a week before the Foams, and people thought they were camping out for those, but nope... it was for the Foams...
You can blame that shoe for blowing up the Foams, as well.
