Official Nike Air Yeezy 2 AFTERMATH THREAD ----- NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING!

[the hater boxden]

Where's that guy that told me no way in hell kanye is a 12? Tried telling him samples run HUGE. Awesome pix nonetheless. With all the money you paid, at least you got a pair with no flaws 

.

I wouldnt say flawless lol, but I'm very glad they do fit like a 12. I don't have to buy another pair now.

 

[dimez81]

I went .5 size down on the Y2 because the Y1 ran big. I could barely strap them down....ended up selling them and bought my true size.

do they crease more with your true size?

 

[SlamShut]

do they crease more with your true size?

I haven't had a chance to break them out yet. I have tried them on and they are still snug, but I can strap them down easier. As you stated they may stretch out with multiple wears....1/2 size down just felt too tight to me.

 

[natrix916]

Still wana get rid of your sz 8 Dimez?

Can't find a legit sz 8 anywhere, and I might have to settle for an 8.5

 

[dj proto j]

my size 12 fits right, but i'd be hard pressed to strap them down...

luckily i don't think they look good strapped down, and never would anyways...

 

[SlamShut]

I want to at least have the option.

 

[dj proto j]

i have a wide foot, so even if i liked how they look strapped down, it wouldn't work for me...

i prolly shoulda went up to a size 13 if i want to comfortably wear wearable shoe trees...

they're so uncomfortable, i'm about to say screw it and let 'em crease...

does doubling up on socks really make that big a difference tho?

 

[natrix916]

Got my Solars, hopefully.....

Good thing I sold them plats, I'm sure I'll be happier with the Solars

I'm thinking about doing the same. Haven't worn my platinums yet. I'm worried my jeans will stain them

 

[sacking232]

I am looking for some help finding a large Yeezy Horus image/graphic for a project that I am working on.  So far, I have only been able to locate small images like the ones below.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank You.

Anyone? Help would be greatly appreciated!

 

[natrix916]

Anyone rock theirs with sneaker shields or wearable shoe trees?

Pros/cons?

Link to buy, pls?

Your killing your feet bro, let them crease.

I wear with wearable shoe trees. Pros: They fit in perfectly, and the shoes barely show any creasing after 5-6 wears. Cons: They're a little uncomfortable.
Make sure you TAKE OUT the insole before sliding in the shoe trees, then put the insole back. Otherwise they won't work and are more uncomfortable.

I need a legit solar size 8,,,,anyone out there get at me.  It will take me from now until dec to get 3 000 for them on FC. I'm saving now.  In the mean time I will rock some Chinese fakes.  First time ever getting fakes so I don't know how bad they'll look.  They are gonna be a size 7,  yeah I know all about how true sneakerheads don't rock fakes. I know all that. Been in the game for 16 years now.  32. For me wearing the fakes is a test for me to see if I really want them...yeah I do. But 3 large is a lotta money on a size 8 and I don't trust anywhere else.  Haven't wore my plats yet.

 

[natrix916]

Thanks Maddox...link to a place for em?
Got the sole savers coming, thanks proto.

And ziggybubbles...just bought my Solars last night, spent a good amount but well worth it to me. You gotta pay to play.
Thank god the casinos have been very good to me

No disrespect man. But if you're 32 spending 3,000 on some kicks that its gonna take you 8 months to get money for, then they're not worth it

 

[sosmoove]

^^^I agree. But the NT logic is "Don't worry about how a dude spends his money" blah blah blah. The idea of paying that for these is crazy. They're already starting to discolor at the bottom; which means it'll only get worse. The scales are starting to fade on solars. They are basically "telling" you what not to do. I just don't see the investment in a shoe that will obviously not last me yearssss down the line for THAT kind of money with the materials used. But hey, who am I?

 

[ziggybubbles]

Good point guys. Thanks.  I hope I don't get any disrespect for rocking fakes...but 3k man that's rough. I've never seen a shoe get to that

 

[mark081990]

I hope you do get disrespect. No offense. They're fakes. Fake. Fake. Fake. Fake. What's the point? The fakes aren't even on point like that. People will be looking at them od hard and you know they'll wonder if their authentic. Everytime I've worn mine at least 1 person has to ask. Mine are plats and fakes are a lot harder to find and a lot easier to spot. I of course have the confidence to say they're real.... Because they are.

Can't even imagine how awful I'd feel if they were fake and everyone were judging me for rocking them. I get it you like the shoe. But it's like... Why? It defeats the purpose. It's only going to want to make you hungrier for authentics. Plus 8 months is od long to save for kicks. By then who knows what the price will be

i saw someone rocking fake cool grey lebron 9s. multiple times. they were like a GR even! went on sale. and he had on some fake *** ****** lookin pair. just at him. i just cant get into the fakes. even if no one else knows, you do. just not my thing

 

[lamekilla]

Yeezy's are yeezy's. I don't condone rocking fakes but at the same time how many cats you know carry around a magnifying glass for inspection anytime they see some air yeezy 2's? Air yeezy's are a luxury sneaker. I've been a kanye fan since listening to the blueprint and been a Nike fan my whole life but air yeezy's are all about hype an exclusitivity. Right now they're all the rage 10 years from now how will these shoes be remembered? I for one don't think they'll stand the test of time (materials included). Take it from someone who bought these at RETAIL

 

[ziggybubbles]

How do sole savers work and are they worth getting.

That doesn't mean squat that you bought at retail but I agree with the materials statement since the soles are already showing weakness with their spotty areas

We're you able to get (1) or both colorways from NDC? Or did you get at retail elsewhere?

Blah blah about retail g but I got the solars at retail from Wish in Atlanta. I got the military blue IV's the same day too. I had know idea NDC had em. That's crazy, I know they're website had the craziest traffic...and for the record military blue IV's get more wears. 1 of the most underrated sneakers, not just Jordan's

Let me start off by saying military ivs are rated appropriately.. Average at best. How did wish do their yeezys.. I vaguely remember- was it a raffle? I remember seeing them on their website but I'm 99% certain they didn't do an online release
