The Yeezy is adidas’ flagship sneaker line. The UltraBoost used to carry that badge, but there haven’t been many UBs dropped that have maintained SRP. The latest UB21 was immediately placed on sale after Covid disrupted the marketing around the sneaker. Actually, that’s not true. The shoe was available at the end of 2019 going into 2020, but wasn’t very well received. The UltraBoost in a variety of colors and styles from DNA to 1-4, are all discounted. adidas is relying heavily on Yeezy to deliver brand hype. Models like the Top 10 and Forum have performed okay at retail, but when it comes down to what’s hot in resale for the Three Stripes, it’s a model that barely has three stripes presented on the upper. The problem is Yeezy isn’t readily available, and a lot of people don’t want to drop the resale price for a shoe that is already a premium release above 200 dollars+ per style. What can you do instead? The shoes below are available to give you that Yeezy ‘look’. They aren’t cheaper, and in many instances they are better quality, but I can almost guarantee if you rock these someone will double take and ask, “Those Yeezys?”
