Sneaker Info:
Materials
When it comes this shoe’s materials, early photos suggest that this shoe features a premium mix of materials that we’ve seen in other “college-themed” retro 5s:
All Suede Upper
Muted 3M Tongue
Premium Textile Sock-liner
“Although there is no “Oregon” branding on this shoe, this colorways gives a clear nod to the west-coast university.”
Color-Blocking
As far as the colors, the shoe’s upper is adorned in apple green, with yellow hits appearing on decorative accents that make their way to the black midsole. An icy blue outsole and matte-black 3M tongue round out the sneaker’s design.
Release and Resell Predictions
Although I don’t see demand for these being too high, I can still predict these to do numbers on release day.
Nothing suggests that these will be a limited release, so expect them to be available at most major retailers via in-store/app raffles and on first-come, first-served basis online.
When it comes to resell, you can’t expect to make much profit per shoe on this release due to the shoes increased $225 retail price, so selling locally would probably be your best bet.
