    From my understanding, there was two versions of the Yeezy Dessert Boots: The Yeezy Seasons ones (with no Adidas branding), and the Adidas version, which are these. They heavily decreased the price for the Adidas release, not to mention it coming inside a standard cardboard box as oppose to the Yeezy Seasons release, which came inside a huge box with suede bags. I wish someone would cut up the Yeezy Seasons pair now as I'm wondering if there was any difference whatsoever between the two.

      @@ballerinChrist Organized religion has mostly completed its role, and now is creating more issues then benefits.
      It has nurtured much of civilization, helped the evolution of morality and education systems, as seen in nations without abrahamic inspirations, caste systems, public education, support structures to assist those without to become positive figures tend not to exist nearly as effectively.
      Countless people make it to the next day, do positive deeds, carry on hope and pursue their happiness for sure, and at times that’s the only cause. But the lack of responsibility is becoming far too severe with organizations teaching Something else will fix our errors rather than us stepping up ourselves to care for this beautiful world when others or our predecessors damaged it, not for ourselves but for the future of others or just out of respect of what Gods left in our care.
      It’s not really fun, nor nice when others spew their beliefs at you, is it?
      Keep on practicing your beliefs, I do hope that you are happy & responsible and you can help others be so too. But remember this is a global platform where individuals can be punished by law for liking your post, having some form of contact with you and then their society comes across your post.
      Be aware of that you can literally put lives at risk, just as you believe you’re just trying to do a good thing, just as seriously and deeply believe there are hundreds of millions in nations that proactively condemn & punish people for purely having an acquaintance that’s selling their religion & coercing others.
      People should absolutely be able to practice what they choose, nor are organized religions an inherently bad thing, it helps countless. But it is a tool, so as you’re putting it out there be aware of what you could very likely be condemning another to please.

    In general, thats is called "breathable mesh", even before the lore that predates it. I usually had it on my Merrell Chameleon Stretch when it was a new material, then everyone had it on bags, shoes and linings where it is expected to interact as linings against body surfaces putting a layer of insulating air between skin and synthetic non breathable materials. But that is a long time ago.

    I wasn't expecting them to be very boot-like, but I am disappointed to see they're not super pillowy/high comfort oriented.
    I was hoping they were more of a "walking boot". Some good ankle and arch support of a boot, the breathability of a sneaker, and that comfort feel that Kanye puts into his other clothes. Maybe these were kind of a test for the market like a lot of brands seem to be doing right now or just Kanye liking the mil-boot style so he made one like you suggested.

I was wondering if you were considering doing any 500’s high or lows, or 380’s are what I’m most interested in after the 350 and 700. I guess the boot is like a 500 high.. The slide and foam runner are kinda straightforward. Anyway, thank you for the content!! You’re doing great work!

      450s upper and sole are heat welded together without any glue. When you look on the inside, the two components aren't just fused with cement, they are molten into one material. I recon one theoretically could separate the upper from the sole only by ripping the sock like fabric where the parts meet. Construction on these is really interesting.

HD doesn’t mess around with their materials, but 8-12 hours a day in them is something I wouldn’t recommend (even though the shoe is billed as “athletic”??), and then you will also be facing an odor issue so fast it’ll make your head spin.

    So just speaking as someone who spends a lot of time in desert boots that fill this particular niche I'd say the only real red flag is the Foam ankle support and foam tongue fill.
    Desert assault style boots are generally supposed to be more like sneakers with added ankle support than work boots.
    They aren't supposed to be waterproof, they aren't supposed to be insulated, they need to have a very abrasion resistant outsole, and they need to be lightweight.
    Because they are designed to be light, durable, and breathable. I would still take my Oakley assault boots with the outsole vents over these, but just wanted to clarify why they aren't like a pair of redwings or logging boots.

      Why can't we just call these what they are, " psudo tactical high top sneakers ".
      I don't care what brand it is, If it uses sneaker materials and construction it's not a boot.
      Maybe a slightly tougher than normal high top sneaker, but not a boot.
      Not to take away from what ever it may be good for, it's just not a boot.

      @@TylerSnyder305 The thing is, it's not like sneakes either. Much too heavy to be one. I spent a lot of time in boots in my old job. Although I agree these are less "boot-y" than proper boots, these definitely land more on the boot end than the sneaker end.
      Then again, my pair is from the Yeezy Season 7 release, not Adidas like the one shown in the video. Apparently they are very different to those that owns both.

      Nah, it looks like a sneaker not a boot, is constructed like a sneaker not a boot, and is made of sneaker materials not boot materials.
      I fail to see how it is in any way a boot, hybrid or otherwise.
      It's just a heavier sneaker, theres nothing wrong with that though, and it's okay to accept that this just isn't a boot.

    I bought these back in the fall & they've basically been my everyday shoes ever since (I live in Wisconsin, where it's cold everyday except June-August lol). They are definitely more for looks, it sort of reminds me of the Jordan 10s shape-wise. I do believe Kanye made some prior to joining Adidas, so there are some out there that retailed for I think $400, without the Adidas branding & they go by European sizing. This video makes me wonder if those are constructed the same as well & if they're made with higher quality.
    All in all, I'm glad these boots don't go for too much over retail, I believe I only paid like $30 over retail price. The 700 Waverunners are my favorite Yeezys, basically my everyday shoes when it's warm. Lol
