Amid a feud with Pete Davidson, Kid Cudi, and “the media,” Kanye is keeping busy with a slate of new Yeezy re-releases. The rapper’s Adidas-backed brand plans to bring back its Yeezy Boost 350 V2 sneaker, its “Waverunner” Yeezy Boost 700, and its Yeezy 500 model, the latter of which is dropping this week in its original “Blush” color scheme.
Adidas has been fairly generous with its Yeezy restocks, with its Yeezy 500 re-release marking the 15th opportunity to snag the shoe since its debut in 2018. But even with scarcity being driven down less and less each year, fans can’t get enough of the chunky dad sneaker — and if you’re not quick enough, chances are you won’t get the opportunity to cop again. Yeezy drops are notoriously unforgiving, and those that miss out on the restock will have to turn to reselling sites, where prices are already demonstrating the appeal around the re-release: On StockX, the “Blush” 500s are selling for up to $599.
