Yeezy has officially jumped over the Jumpman.
Well, at least on eBay. In 2015 the hottest resold sneaker on eBay was the Yeezys. With some being sold for as low as $250 online and resold for 5x that amount, Kanye established himself as a true player in the world of fashion and shoes last year.
GQ broke down some of the Yeezy re-selling stats from last year:
In fact, though the low top 350 Boost was $200 and the high top 750 Boost clocked in at $350, the prices these shoes went for on Ebay ranged from, on average, $738 and $1,876.
And, though the all-black 750 Boost fetched the highest average price ($1,876), it was the low-top “Turtle Dove” 350 Boost that made the most total money for sellers—$4,343,101. In total, over $12 million dollars was grossed on eBay just on Yeezy sales alone. – GQ
I may have to turnover a new leaf, 2016 may have to be the year I become a sneaker head.
