Kanye West Yeezy 950s practically sold out

New York - Many shoe fans have had their calendar marked for October 29 for quite some time in preparation for the release of Kanye West's Yeezy 950s. A majority of the retailers carrying Yeezy Season 1 have already sold out of the Yeezy 950s, however. Many retailers waited until their usual store opening times of 10 a.m. before they opened the doors to customers who wanted the boots, and the lines were already around the corner far before then.
At 11 o'clock this morning, there were a limited number in stock left on Adidas's website, but those have since seemed to have disappeared. Barney's has already completely sold out of the boots in all four color offerings (peyote, moonrock, chocolate, and pirate black.) The men's styles retailed at 595 dollars, and the women's styles retailed at 625 dollars.
A quick google shopping search will tell you that there is almost no website left with a single pair of Yeezy 950s available. The only hope seems to be E-bay, where the boots are going for over 800 dollars.
Over in the U.K. the Yeezy camo t-shirt, boots, and hoodies sold out within 15 minutes at the Philip Browne men's wear store according to Footwear News.
At 11 a.m., the shoes went live on Opening Ceremony's website and were available at their Howard Street store, but for the website you need a password to see if they are even available. At 4 p.m. today, a sales associate at Opening Ceremony's store confirmed that they still had select men's and women's styles available. It's unclear how much longer that will last, but if you stand a chance at getting these shoes Opening Ceremony appears to be your last hope.
