Now, as all of you may know, the Yeezy 350 ‘Hyperspace’ is one of the most sought after colourways out of the three regional exclusives, featuring a mix of ‘Salt’ and ‘Blush’ into what’s known as the ‘Static’ silhouette. And with Kanye’s eternal promise of more and more Yeezys, means that retailers like Adidas Originals Malaysia and Crossover are carrying some from across the pond into our hype chasing region.
Now, the obvious answer for sought after shoes like these is to do an online raffle, but Sole What thought of a cheeky way that’s a little bit different from the others. The retailer put the shoe for sale on site, but at a retail price of RM 10,990. Of course, the absurdity of this is the price, and from the initial looks, may hinder potential consumers from purchasing the product.
However, eagle eyed readers who took the time to read the T&C noticed a discount code that when put into the system during check out, reduces the amount to retail price. Several reports after that showed that when someone checks out, the price will automatically be deducted and the customer can purchase on retail.
There are many different ways to curb mass buying of the shoes just to resell, such as what Solebox did during the Parra Air Max 1 collab, but this has got to be one of the best trolling efforts out there. Next time, remember to read, and not just skim through like every other T&C out there.
