So I went for the safest, fastest route possible: I searched for a dupe on Amazon. The downside (aside from potentially sub-par fit and/or quality)? I’d have to wait months before getting a pair. I did some research and came across a ton of impressive dupes on the internet, all replicas manufactured and sold directly from China. Paying more than the market price for a foam sandal? No thanks.Īfter years of missing re-releases, limited edition colorways, and generally being late to the punch, I decided enough was enough-if I couldn’t get the real deal, I was going to buy a pair of knock-off Yeezy Slides. Like many Kanye-branded products, they’ve been a target for resellers who buy multiple pairs of the shoe at release for the retail price of $55 and flip them on sites like eBay and StockX for nearly triple their cost. I’ve wanted a pair since their debut-they look too squishy and comfortable for me to ignore-but they’ve been near-impossible to grab from Adidas. Yet here I am, two years later and still Yeezy Slide-less.
