“Lavender” YEEZY 500 Sample Surfaces

Recent footwear leaks from Kanye himself has shone a light on just how many attempts it takes to get his YEEZY colorways just right. We’ve seen a slew of unreleased options from both his Forbes interview and more recently here. As expected, many of the pairs we’ve seen have been of the 350 and 700 variety, which make sense given the popularity and sheer volume of releases for the silhouettes, but the oft-forgotten 500 has its fair share of samples, too. The latest to surface is one devised during the “Soft Vision” sample process, here opting for a lavender tint as opposed to the aforementioned’s pink hue. It does arrive here on the same gum rubber traction, although it does arrive with a fairly deep shift in tone at the wavy midsole pods.

Grab a look at the sample here, and like most of Ye’s sample sneakers, it’s likely we won’t be seeing a retail release. If you’re looking for news on YEEZY drops that will be releasing, we’ve got a full rundown of YEEZY Releases for 2020 right here.
