Yeezys for everyone! Beluga 2.0 Pros / Cons
I reached out to you on Twitter and asked “Name 1 thing you love / hate about the Beluga 2.0”, here are the answers:
/ 937747340013682688
Quick Overview adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Beluga 2.0
Style - AH2203 Colorway Grey/bold orange/dark grey
Release Date: 11/25/2017 (After Black Friday)
Retail $220, Sizing
Why is this called “Beluga?” The color, not the whale www.pantone.com/color-finder/...
Comparison to Beluga 1.0
Pros
Biggest Yeezy Release yet in volume.
Subtle colorway
Versatile
Resale is the lowest for any Yeezy so far
Comfortable Primeknit + Boost = YES.
Kanye said “Yeezy’s for everyone” and it looks like Adidas is delivering.
Cons
Sizing - some say they run very small (if size 10.5 they feel like a 10)
Some construction issues - being the largest release, that = more room for quality issues.
Still not enough made? Arguable however, over 5600 pairs sold on StockX,
Resale - if you were looking to cash in, resale is good, but not Yeezy good. $324 is lowest price.
Is the Yeezy market dead? Resale is low, not as talked about as they used to be, people jumping back to Jordan Brand from Adidas?
Will the yeezy model be played out or will it be timeless?
Final thoughts? Double up! Colorway is great, comfortable too, worth buying IMO regardless of larger scale release. Not feeling the Dad shoes, so Ill stick to these. - Jak na to + styl
I think they will stay relevant in the shoe culture. The one thing is that they are comfortable as well as fashionable. Jordan's are mostly just fashionable IMO.
optimus187prime agreed on comfort!
Was just thinking, since I don't play basketball; I simply don't appreciate Jordan's the same way most sneaker heads do. I grew up with soccer and hockey being the biggest sports in my household and you can't rock those types of footwear off the field/rink. But I do love the Ultraboosts they do where they hybridize the soccer cleats with the UB midsole. Those are so sick.
yeah dude I hate wearing jordans and even af1's
@@Okokok938 Said the anime pic loser
@@Okokok938 your parents unfortunately created a useless trashcan full of dumpster juice!!!
Only people who think yeezy’s are dead are hypebeasts and resellers
Nah it's the other way around.
IIDaumont so everyone that has them 😂😂😂
aka the entire fucking yeezy fanbase lmao
The hideous calabasass
Damn right!
I can care less of how limited the shoe is. Shoe is dope imo. Fuck resellers.
“Yeezys are dead” *buys 2 pairs*
I 100% agree with you I love the fact they are increasing production numbers, the only people pissed are the resellers who are just trying to make a buck. Although I do prefer the look of the OG beluga this shoe is still very nice, it was also the first pair of yeezys I was able to buy off the Adidas US website!
Your Neighborhood Handicapped Kid yeezy are not dead but resellers paychecks is dead 😅
Bruh they got more yeezy v2 cus these might be the last
i bet you would call yeezys are trash from the beginning. Without resllers, there is would be no game. Resellers created the sneaker culture.
I GOT MY FIRST YEEZY, TODAY.... DAMN CALABASAS
JDM Cesar HAHAHAHA
JDM Cesar YO ME TOO I JUST MY FIRST PAIR OF YEEZY TODAY TOO, BLACK CALABASAS!!!
me to
I sold mine
Gay😂
Glad to see that you took my mini-game into your actual intro! Dope vid, Hes keep it up!
I liked the Beluga, and I slept on the original release day. But once the Beluga 2.0 dropped, I can give a fuck less about resale cause this shoe is fire!!!
I like the 2.0’s WAY better than the 1.0. Definitely more wearable in my opinion. I actually like the 2.0’s better than the Zebras. 💯 BLACK THEM THANGS OUT!!! DO IT!!!
Resellers paycheck is dead 😅
Nah, the kid resellers. Sold them now for $500
I heard somewhere that baby belugas are more of a grey colour and get whiter as they grow up
Nothing to do with beluga whales. Look up beluga sturgeon fish which produces the famous beluga caviar. That's where the colorway is from.
Ayeeee you using my idea in the intro! Thanks man! Btw I got the bred ones
One of the best color ways out of the entire line.
GDNEntertainment agreed!
GDNEntertainment Dope colorway but why is his label fake ?
Ninety88 nope
I got a pair of these, & I still haven't worn cause im on the fence of selling them to get the blue tints instead. What do yall think? Are blue tints better??
Hoping for a pair of the blue tint next Saturday. Good to see the production up, and being in a smallish town (200,000) not close to a store, might have some luck on Adidas.com
its called beluga because a baby beluga is grey and not white it only turns white as it grows up
Neo Canadian bro it has nothing to do with the animal 🤦🏽♂️
Neo Canadian is right. One of the most notable aspects about the beluga whale is that it is a silky white color. But baby and adolescent ones are grey. Only once they reach their juvenile years, do they start turning white. That is where the idea for a "beluga" color scheme being grey originated from. Me hoy minoy!!
Robert Windom mehoyninoy you learn something new everyday
Doodlebob stupid kid

These Belugas 2.0 were my 1st Yeezys. would you say they have the sizing as the Yeezy Zebras? would really appreciate your reply Hes Kicks.
I have this and love the color. And resell to-date (early Jan 2018), the cheapest resell is Blue Don't, it's cheaper than Beluga 2.0.
I'll always go half a size for Yeezy and only feels comfy
great video.very informative
thanks!
You’ve quickly became one of my favorite youtubers
thanks!
10/10 Vid. Got my first W on this shoe and since there was so many pairs I decided to keep them and they are clean af. I do recommend ppl go half a size up to be safe. I went 9.5, which is my tts and it was a tight fit. Had to remove insole and break into them to be wearable. Besides that its a solid shoe
What camera/voice recorder do you use for your videos? Looking for one myself
Which yeezy’s you wear most often than others ??
turtle doves back when they droped they were going for 400
The fire intro is back 🔥🔥🔥🔥🕺🏿
do you guys wear insoles with v2's? debating whether i should try it
Just got my pair in the other day. Every time I look at them, I like them more. They’re so versatile, there’s a lot of pairs in the market keeping the resale down (Yeezy for everyone), and it’s super comfortable.
10/10 sneaker, an instant classic.
Got them for retail, definitely gonna keep them. My first Yeezy.
Thoughts on the blue tint?
Adidas should just make yeezys constantly available for everyone by stocking them everyday like ultraboosts. They have nothing to loose. They make no money off the reselling market, so might as well flood the market. Just keep the quality on.
But the hype exists because of them being exclusive...the ultraboosts aren't as hyped...i get what you mean, but the yeezys would have to be the same as the ultraboosts and go on sale for them to become mainstream and not just for hypebeasts
The shoe is super dope regardless. I don’t really care as much about the exclusivity as I used to, it definitely is nice to have something that someone else doesn’t have but at the end of the day it’s a comfortable ass shoe that looks good. Only problem with it being such a general release, like you said, the quality control sucked, so much variation in the pairs I’ve seen even on the sizing labels
If any one thinks a shoe is dead that sells out instantly because theirs no resale than you’re an elitist & an opportunist that needs to get a real job. People should be rejoicing that Kanye & Adidas are trying to make a hot shoe more available as was Kanye’s plan.
Real Talk. I agree that the Yeezy market's volatile, given style fads and how fickle trends can be. However still going strong for now. 10 years from now they won't be fresh, but people will be talking about how it changed the sneaker landscape in terms of hype and notoriety among non sneakerheads. Solid vid.
thanks for watching!
It really changed the game tho. It made boost fashionable by putting it into a stylish shoe, made prime-knit technology popular, and made comfort and style a key element for streetwear kicks. The Jordans are stylish as hell but most people would not say they are the most comfy to wear all day meanwhile the Yeezys are both comfy & stylish with their sleek design.
I'm sorry but fuck resellers. I long for the day when you don't need to use bots, 700 tabs, a backup homie with 700 tabs, and spamming raffles like your life depends on it. It's about time the little guy got a piece of the pie....And by 'little guy' I mean people who have 220$ of disposable income and a dream. That's all it should really take.
That's how us resellers get money. I had to grind my ass off in order to get my shoes and that's why we sell them for so much money. If you are going to blame someone, blame the bots they make it completely unfair for everyone.
cheggpool well fuck you guys, we wanna wear them and not have to buy them from you fuckers who skyrocket the prices
Well then you need to work for it. Don't expect people to just give you things for free.
cheggpool I believe the shoes cost 220$ U.S...More with tax... Definitely wouldn't call that free.
Filip Bogović My man
JB crushed Adidas for the 2017 winter!!! Facts!!!! 💯
I’ll probably name it Core Grey, it just sounded cool
what is the sizing like. I have 11.5 in ultraboosts and they are a little big. should i get an 11 if i like a snug shoe?
Hes Kicks, I noticed ur Ultraboost lacing is somewhat different from ur ub lacing video u did. I noticed u didnt use the last lace hole. Can u do a quick lace tutorial of how u laced the triple white 4.0s in this video. It would mean alot. Thanks
i believe they will stay relevant.. i never cared about anything trendy or whatever or dont play sports... but when i saw v1 on a dude on youtube i instantly fell in love just because of how clean and unique they are... now that they are releasing such minimal / plain colorways i think they will stick around...
Can Adidas remove the cage to expose the boost? It would make the shoe lighter and more cushiony (i guess).
These were my first pair loved em so much I just bought the Zyons
They are the most comfortable sneakers ever and I love they are releasing more each time
adidas site: Grey / (B)old (ORANG)e / (DG)H (SO)lid (GR)ey
Yeezy Box: Grey / BORANG / DGSOGR
*Side note: DGH usually stands for Dark Grey Heather
Love the cw ... gr or not its perfect for me
Hes , I love the fact that Adidas dropped more pairs to give more cats who really like them a chance to cop. I hope they continue to drop pairs to weaken that resale game .. and weed out the cats that only like the shoe because it's so limited
@Hes Kicks love the V2. I have the 700 (size 12) and I would trade them to get the all grey V2 best yeezy to date IMO. can you help me out?
Yeah imho these V2s will be timeless 👌🏽
Dope zoom pull focus intro
I do the same size as UBs. These fit tight, but stretch out. I did have one QC issue, my pull tabs are sized differently. I have one I can fit 2 fingers between, and one that I can only fit one between. No biggie tho. They visually look the same.
Been trying since Beluga to get one pair, but sadly every time i get L
sooooooo much better in hand. the clean but detailed colorway easily became my favorite once i put on foot. had to order a second pair once i had on foot
just enough red that still allows you to rock with most outfits.. with the 1.0 that orange stripe can throw off some outfits
agreed, great pair!
i know i am O.T. but... no airmax 2018 yet this year ? what's goin on at nike ?
help me to understand
Kanye: Yea put the reflective stripes on the inside of the pull tab
Adidas: but nobody can see it there
Kanye: Nobody is running in these things bruh.
Im gonna wear tese for as long as my pairs hold up. I love the v2 n personally its more comfy for me then even the ultra boost.
Still loves the cw
Lee Samson same!
Lee Samson I actually have had my shoes legit checked but they smell kinda weird, idk if thats just me
Mine had a flaw :( but I go full size up from 9.5 to 10.5 for all v2s. 750s I go 10 and tts for v1
Who's selling those yeezys that you linked in the description?? Some of those listings are a bit sketchy like the $120 zebra
On the Static blacks I went 1 size up and its too small... Ordered them in one and a half size up.
here in switzerland retail is 250 and you can easy get them for 20-30 over retail
I can figure into a pair of size 7 nmds perfect and with my yeezys I ordered an 8 and it fits the same as the nmds
In Denmark you can literally get these for retail atm. Great video :-)
Dirty zebras lmfao. The increased production made me really happy. This was my first yeezy cop. But I think QC took a hit. Also the sply 350 and pull tab look really red in pics and video but in hand its super orange. I had to go .5 up and the toe box is still a bit snug. They're pretty narrow.
throw in UB insoles, thats what I did.
What’s the name of the sweat pants you had on in the on foot?
In Europe u can get a Pair for 240-280€. Retail was 220€. I think when they dry up they will more worth with Time.
Yeah I struck out lol, tried for 5 hours, used adidas alerts, and tried being quick. No luck.
They should make an inverse zebra colorway where there's white stripes on black.
I just got a pair but I’m in Florida and my house where the shoes were delivered to is in Georgia but from pictures I’ve seen they seem like a very solid shoe
Not sure of the model in the intro but they are white with a gold swoosh black accents and a white sole with black speckles
I didn’t cop on release day, but I bought a pair from StockX
Anyone else have an defect on the medial side primeknit swirl design on size 12s and up?
My first ever pair were the sesames which dropped Black Friday after this drop man if I was a year earlier I would’ve got these but anyways the sesames are still clean
i love the way they look
I never get crazy in shoes but since i try to buy a pair of ultraboost early this year i really love it and when i get my 1st fair of yeezy thats the best feeling ever and now i got this beluga 2.0 i really love ot
Markymark Yumul oh god its you
I didn't think you were a shoe person
This news is going to Cole and Monty
Good points.
My favourites V2s are 1) Beluga 1.0 2)bred 3) Creams. Tbh I don't think they'll 'die' but will still be relevant in the same way that Jordans are. Kanye did say in 2015 that Yeezys will be available for everyone, so its not really any surprise that its going to turn out like that.
If you wear thicker socks and wear true to size, they will fit tight in the shoe box. I have the blue tints and they are fine with thinner socks and they fit nicely
The resell isn’t dead. It just depends on how limited each colorway is.
This shoe is $340CAD after tax in Canada and I was able to get my wife a pair for christmas for $400CAD which is nuts, equivalent of paying like $45USD over retail. Basically got her pair cheaper that YEEZYsupply shipping to Canada which is $50USD, love the limited colorways when the come out but its awesome that I think a lot of people are gonna have these as xmas gifts since their are actually attainable. I still think in 6-12 months these will recover and sell for higher prices than the creams just because its a better more wearable colorway in most people I've talked to opinion and my own.
Love the channel bro, if you get a chance to check out some of my vids that'd be dope!
thats nice you got em close to retail!
Man is a hype beast it’s not all about the resell at least you have a pair unlike others be happy with what you got
yeezys arent dead they are just getting more and more available
idk how I feel about yeezys being so available. I mean because of this I was able to get the 2.0s and blue tints but most people love yeezys because there so limited, its such a rare shoe. I get way more looks wearing a vs oreo than if I were to be wearing the beluga 2.0. I think the yeezy name might die because of the production numbers being so high. But other than all of that the shoe looks and feels great and i'm glad finally most people are being able to get it, I guess it just has its pros and cons.
Why is resell so high in the US? In Europe it's near retail
Stayed tts though they are a bit tight but its fine... it will stretch out eventually
yeah wore mine today, a lil snug but usually works out!
how about a review of them big baller brand joints??
Yeah the sizing on yeezys are a little funny I have to go full size up on them
I paid 470 + 10 shipping and it take 3-4 days to get authenticated and delivered.
Original Beluga’s are my fav V2
The Beluga 2.0 and the Zebra is favorite Yeezy Boost V2 colorways.
In Romania these v2 are the most popular
Where you get the laces for the zebras
Classic sneakers never die and Yeezy sneakers are on their way to being a classic
This video is really old now tho, but the funny thing is that Yeezy isnt dead at all, and is doing better then ever.
I'm debating whether I should get the beluga 2.0 or blue tints,please help
personal preference.. I like the Beluga 2.0 better tho
Hes Kicks i like both but i just can't choose which ones😂thanks anyways
It’s called the v2 because it’s almost as if the v2 was the v1’s other half. The stripe color and text color are reversed though not exact. If you look at 6:08 in the video and you pressed the shoes together, the backwards font of the v2 would go exactly where the orange lacks on the v1, creating a solid orange stripe.
I think the v1’s will end up being way more timeless than the v2’s. The colorways are a lot more versatile and timeless. Sure the zebras are rad, but that will probably look ridiculous in 5-10 years time. But i think the pirate blacks and oxford tans especially will age well.
350's will go down as legendary shoes
Hey from 4 years in the future !!!! The beluga 2.0 in an 11.5 is 825.00 on stock x.. and yes the 350 will remain timeless.. The core black red and the Oreos are each way over a thousand .. but the main question I have is why does everybody run back to Jordan's? Their square and boxy. And they're like wearing bricks on your feet they are not soft and squishy and comfy.. I do think the Travis Scott look cool but trying them on they just can't compare to the ultra boost in a Yeezy .. 😔 I just don't get Jordan's
These felt really tight compared to my Breds
I still am waiting for my first L on the yeezy line of shoes, take that back I did cop the Power Phase, I just wanted one to wear. Hopefully I get a dub on the Blue Tints.🙏🙏🙏
Beluga 2.0s were like the iPhone XR of sneakers. Copped the 1.0s btw
