Much like Nike’s flagship sneakers, the Air Jordans, the Adidas Yeezy 350 V2 changed the sneaker game as it further embedded sneaker culture within modern pop culture more than ever before, with much thanks to Kanye West. Today, we take a look at some of the most profitable Yeezys 350 for resale to pay homage to the most popular Yeezy ever!

The Yeezy 350 was Kanye’s golden ticket toward legendary status within the sneaker world. Although the Red Octobers put him on the map, there were too few of them for Yeezy to compete with Jordan Brand.

Before we take a look at some of the most profitable 350s for resale, let me walk you over a bit of history!

Yeezy 350 V2 History

The initial two colors for the 350 V1, “Turtle Dove” and “Pirate Black,” were on sale for $200 in adult sizes in 2015 before costs and sizes were subsequently scaled down to accommodate newborns.

Soon after, the earthy nature and tonal takes associated with the first 350s would be continued by the “Moonrock” and “Oxford Tan” takes, which would later become a global fashion standard.

The Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 was a genuine smash in 2016 and was prepared for growth. Famously, NFL players would wear cleated shoes during games until the league forbade them.

West released the Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 following the previous version’s first year on the market, modifying the shoe’s posture with a little more angular midsole and a more assertive Primeknit pattern on the top.

West is always changing his designs, as we continue to see in 2022. 

The Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 has become the Three Stripe sportswear company’s most recognizable model since it debuted in 2016, surpassing the Superstar.

The 350 V2, which is being released at an erratic pace, has garnered attention in loud “Zebra” and “Beluga” variations as well as in a variety of basic hues that highlight sleek black uppers and distinct side stripe contrast.

Post-2020, the Yeezy 350 V2’s resale value, however, started to dwindle largely due to the number of colorways that Yeezy was releasing. There were just too many of them, and the hype started to die down.

Thankfully for some lucky few, the OGs are still extremely popular and profitable.

The Most Resold Sneaker: Yeezy 350 V2

Despite predictions that the global sneaker resale industry would reach $30 billion by 2030, research shows that some sneakers are more well-liked and lucrative than others.

We discovered that the Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 Black Red was the most frequently resold trainer model on StockX, with over 70,000 resales.

The Nike Air Force 1 Low White ’07 model is the third-most resold pair of sneakers on the site globally, while the Jordan 11 Retro Jubilee 25th Anniversary edition comes in second place with almost 69,000 resales on StockX.

However, the most well-liked fashion trends may not always be the most successful ones. The Adidas Yeezy 350 V2 has lost most of its resale potential due to Yeezy releasing too many colorways.

However, another reason for this sneaker losing much of its value is that Yeezy released too many colorways that looked eerily similar, defeating the whole purpose of holding a collection.

If two or more colorways look almost exactly the same, what’s the point in having both if you already have one?

Thankfully, there still are a bunch of very profitable colorways on the secondary market, and if you have some of these pairs, you could sell them for a pretty penny.

  • Retail Price: $220

  • Style Code: FU9007

This YEEZY model, which debuted in June 2019, swiftly gained popularity among customers and is now one of the most sought-after colors in recent memory.

The shoe has been available on StockX for a while, averaging $471 USD for each sale and selling for an amazing 45.5% more than MSRP after approximately 47,400 transactions.

The entirely blacked-out look of the non-reflective YEEZY BOOST 350 V2 “Static Black,” formerly known as the “Pirate Black,” is one of the shoe’s most distinctive aspects.

The only indication of color on the shoe is the heel pull tab, which has a small amount of bright red stitching for a slight pop against the black upper, black midsole, and black outsole.

The top of the shoe is made of Primeknit, while the midsole and laces include Adidas BOOST technology. The shoe is finished off with a transparent side strip in place of the SPLY-350 marking and a rubber outsole.

The more restricted Reflective YEEZY BOOST 350 V2 Statics is an additional choice for individuals who wish to flex even harder. 

 For a retail price of around $300 per pair, these profits are quite high, especially considering the resale value of new colorways in comparison.

  • Average Resell: $400
  • Release Date: Thursday, 19th September 2019

The YEEZY BOOST 350 V2 is one of Kanye West’s billion-dollar baby’s most popular styles since it has seen several versions. The Yeezy 350 V2 Cloud White particularly is one of the most sought-after even today. 

 The shoe is now selling at around $435 USD on StockX, which is 93.6% more expensive than the MSRP.

The Adidas YEEZY BOOST 350 V2 “Cloud White” has a blend of Primeknit patterns weaving over the midsole and a dreamlike combination of white, light blue, and grey tones throughout the upper and across the laces.

The boost technology is concealed in the ridged sole for recognizable comfort and a unified style, and the shoe has a translucent monofilament side stripe and a traditional gum midsole covered in thick white paint.

The Adidas YEEZY BOOST 350 V2 “Cloud White” is also available in a “Cloud White Non-Reflective” variant which is slightly less hyped and profitable. The Cloud white colorway has been sold on StockX thousands of times, and even after 3 years is still trending.

Another colorway from the Yeezy Season 4 Collection is the Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Black Copper.

The Yeezy 350 V2 Black Copper is made of ultra-premium, lightweight Primeknit to stay loyal to the line. The shoe feels robust and strong. The unmatched cushioning is provided by the Boost sole underfoot, and the tubular effect is distinctly Yeezy as well.

Jet black Primeknit covers the sneakers while copper-hued stitching permeates through over the toes, side panels, and parts of the front collar and tongue. In contrast, a copper side stripe runs from the toes to the rears with black SPLY-350 branding in black.

Traditional black laces with black midsoles and Boost encapsulated black outsoles finish the design.

On the secondary market, these kicks are reselling for north of $670 per pair! That is an insane profit margin of almost triple the retail price.

Colorways like this are hard to come by, and cop, which is why joining the Winner’s Circle and seeking expert advice is such a good idea!

The Adidas Yeezy 350 V2 Green Glow was specifically made to glow in the dark more than any other reflective variant of this shoe.

These sneakers feature a bright lime green Primeknit all over the upper ranging from the toes to the heels. The laces and tongues are also lime green with a neon-like tinge, while the interiors also seem to feature the same hue.

On the side panels, a tan monofilament material covers the sneaker and provides contrast as well.

Like the rest of the shoe, the heel pulls are light green matching the laces and the rest of the Prime Knit. Light green midsoles with Boost technology and matching outsoles finish off the design.

On the secondary market, these sneakers are worth a whopping $670 on websites such as StockX and GOAT. They have even been sold for around a thousand Dollars!

The Adidas Yeezy line by Kanye West had a successful year-end of 2018. I mean a boom that is incredibly loud and shiny, much like the Yeezy 350 V2 Static Reflective. 

Before the year was up, West and the Trefoil Brand released three “Static” sneakers over the course of a single week, each in colors that combine white and grey with brilliant silver embellishments.

Even while the “Static Reflective” pair looks nearly exactly like the basic “Static” pair without the flash, it reveals its unique feature: the whole upper and the laces light up with interwoven reflective patterning for an eye-catching appearance, not before seen on West’s Adidas shoes.

It’s more than simply a flashy shoe, too. These Yeezys also provide a lot when not in direct sunlight, thanks to several additional elements, including the milky outsole and translucent mesh midfoot stripe.

On websites such as StockX and GOAT, these sneakers are worth around $600 per pair, beating out well-known colorways, such as the Cinder and the popular Beluga.

 Another worthy addition to our list is the Yeezy 350 V2 Yecheil.  Another Yeezy sneaker with an odd name.

The Hebrew name, which translates to “May God Live,” marks a significant change from prior color schemes since it does away with the line’s typical earth-toned tones in favor of a multi-color blend.

The foundation is a straightforward black Primeknit, which is then heavily embellished with white thread, with the exception of the side stripe.

The throat, mouth, and medial side all display a striking dosage of vivid red, and the back also exhibits what appear to be additional dramatic tones.

Even the sock liner gets in on the action by adding an extra dash of tan. The appearance is completed with a smokey black midsole with white Boost padding.

On the secondary market, these kicks are worth a whopping $620 as well, and although they are not as popular as the others, you could still fetch a very good price if you own a pair.

Adidas Yeezy 350 V2 Lundmark Reflective

  • Retail Price: $250
  • Average Resell: $500-$800+
  • Release Date: Thursday, November 7th, 2019

  • Style Code: FV3254

The next design, which was spotted in the streets of New York first, is one of the more subtle 350 V2 styles, with a subdued grey Primeknit upper and laces with a complementary woven pattern.

The shoe’s distinctive post-dyed monofilament side stripe is implemented in a shade that matches the BOOST outsole, making it a flexible option for everyday use.

The reflective version of Kanye West’s iconic shoe features unique threads woven into its upper that helps to reflect light back at its source, making for a particularly eye-catching rendition.

Sock liners are also a similar hue, while bone midsoles with Boost encapsulation and matching outsoles finish the design.

On the secondary market, these kicks are worth north of $500 but have also been sold recently for $1,000 and up! Thus finishing off our list with yet another banger.

Take your reselling game to the next level
