From the hundreds upon hundreds of leaked YEEZY samples from over the years, not many make it to market. But that’s not the case for the YEEZY 700 v1 “Bright Blue”, a pair that raised significant interest when revealed alongside a slew of never-before-seen sneakers this past August.
As the name suggests, the pair arrives with a striking blue hue atop its OG-inspired base. Like the vibrant “Sun” colorway, which is also set to release early next year, the “Bright Blue” YEEZY 700 closely resembles the OG Wave Runner, but with piercing blues in place of grey on the upper, while soft oranges sit where the sail midsole once laid. Teal toe, black suede overlays, and vivid orange midsole accents all arrive on par with the OG, as does its black rubber outsole.
Fresh info from YEEZY Mafia has placed the pair for an early 2021 release, though a specific date won’t be confirmed until we edge closer to the new year.
