$151 under retail: a size 8 Yeezy 500 “Slate” is $69, and a 10 just fell to $97

Sizes 9.5 and 10 both dropped to $97 this week, their lowest since my checks began. Sizes 11 and 11.5 sit over retail.

A size 8 Yeezy 500 “Slate” costs $69 right now, $151 under its $220 retail. That's the cheapest pair from 8 to 12, and it's the same price it was a week ago.

It's also the same price it was on September 29. The cheapest pair in sizes 8 to 12 has held at $69 since my checks began, and it was $69 when I wrote about it on November 4. Flat line, nothing to wait for.

The real news this week is in the middle sizes. A size 10 fell $74 to $97, a 9.5 fell $58 to $97, and a 9 fell $17 to $89. All three are the lowest I've seen for those sizes since September 29.

Seven of the nine sizes sell under retail. A 10.5 is $125, and a 12 is $201, only $19 under retail. The two exceptions are size 11 at $279 and size 11.5 at $273, both over retail and both pricier than a week ago.

My take

If you wear a 9.5 or a 10, I'd buy now: those sizes are at the lowest price I've recorded for them, and a week ago they cost a lot more. A size 8 has sat at $69 the whole time, so there's no rush there. If you wear an 11 or 11.5, I'd wait.
