They're back… and no, I am not "solely" talking about the original colorways of Rihanna's Puma Creepers, which arrive on Thursday, Sept. 29 at 10 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT. The equally popular Yeezy Boost 350s are also having an encore but with a new look. These are Yeezy Boost 350 V2s and they have a fresh design, with the bright, traffic cone orange stripe on the side. The orange stripe has digits stamped into it and this style was previously thought to be customized by and for Kanye West only. The Yeezy Boost 350 V2 will be available sooner that the OG Rihanna x Puma Creepers. The Yeezy Boost 350 V2 goes on sale on Saturday, Sept. 24.
It's proving to be a good month for sneaker obsessives who put a lot of thought into their footwear, thanks to classic Creepers and new Boost 350s. Where can you buy the Yeezy Boost 350 V2? More accurately, where can you attempt to buy these fashion unicorns?
PacSun, which has sold Yeezy Boost kicks in the past, will sell the shoe at select stores over the weekend. The stores are all over California, both Southern and Northern, outside of Philly and NYC, and more. But you can't just walk in, ask for your size, try them on, and purchase them.
You have to sign up for the raffle, in which you basically win the chance to purchase them at a participating retailer near you.
Busted reached out to Adias reps to inquire if the Yeezy Boost 350 V2 will be sold via the Adidas site and in Adidas stores or if they are only available through reservations and raffles. We will let you know if and when we hear back.
It sounds like a convoluted shopping process, but the shoes are heavily coveted, so it makes sense that they would try to create a system that gives people a fair chance to buy. The hype happens now.
The brand is hyping the redesign and the comfort level of the Yeezy Boost 350 V2, that's for sure.
Here are the Pac Sun locations that will sell Yeezy Boost 350 V2. Any of those local to you? If so, you have until 6 p.m. local time to enter the lottery for the chance to purchase.
You can also reserve via the Adidas app, according to GQ. So there's that.
Good luck seeking those Boost 350 V2s, all you lovers of kicks!
