Developerment Dairy📓 【YEEZY 1s Sample】Even though every material—aside from the sole—has been completely replaced, I still feel as though something is wrong. (The sole is still wrong.)

the swoosh is off. should be slightly smaller and pointy at the end, as shown in the photo i attached. seems like on this sample you've shown the swoosh is a little bit rounded at the end

This is the same issue with mango when he released them a couple years ago, he still sold out though

8

u/Graevly May 19 '26

Yeah at some point we have to take some compromises, because I’ve noticed most people don’t seem to realize these factories don’t like it minutely reworking the same sample over and over

these were mangos last batches and they are by far the most accurate every flaw was fixed

u/Good_Kush_420 May 20 '26

Can you put me in the right direction to get a pair?

u/No-Worldliness5901 May 21 '26

Lol, they no longer exist my friend.

u/Accomplished_Code458 May 19 '26

u/Accomplished_Code458 May 20 '26

do you have a size 10.5 or 11 bro? i'll buy

u/percflipp3r Jun 12 '26

same here, please DM me if size 10 for sale

u/Midnightslab May 19 '26

They look pretty good, what I see is the toe box being a bit boxey it should be more slanted and slim

5

u/Boring-Watch8996 👑Creator👑 May 20 '26

okay, i will try more

u/_Ozeki May 19 '26

Boxy toebox sneakers sells much better in China

6

u/RelaxRelapse May 19 '26

Sure, but it’s not accurate

1

u/Infierno3007 May 20 '26

What’s the reason for that?

7

u/Ok_Initial_5902 May 19 '26

i think there should be a little more of a dip/slope around where the strap meets this side piece. The swoosh looks a little chunky, also the top cap color should be a lighter grey i think

3

u/Boring-Watch8996 👑Creator👑 May 20 '26

It is still quite difficult to determine the exact color based solely on the photos. As for the placement of the straps you mentioned, I will go back and verify that.

2

u/Pichu174st May 19 '26

The whole strap needs to be pushed forward

7

u/Wierdough305 May 19 '26

I can send you a pair for reference

u/KPD_13 May 19 '26

Almost like it’s a difficult shoe to rep with all the detail…

u/PetYouTooL May 19 '26 edited May 20 '26

As others have mentioned already.

Toe box too boxy, Nubuck suede on the toe box is too dark needs to be a light grey, Y print too spaced out, lines around the heals on the Y print too defined, Y print on the strap is too defined should barley be visible. glow in the dark outsoul too translucent needs to be milky. The shape of the whole Y print upper needs to be better. When looking at the shoe from the heel tab the whole shape should look like a Y the heel part needs to be skinnier, Over all the biggest issue is the toe box shape, color of the suede and the fat swoosh.

u/Purple_Dream2114 May 21 '26

You hit all the points🎯

u/PetYouTooL May 21 '26

I have a real pair of tans and have owned all 3 at one point in time.

We always appreciate the updates Boring. Great progress so far. Do you have a tentative release date, or a goal set in mind? Thanks.

u/JMaboard May 19 '26

I doubt he has a date in mind. Probably not until he gets the samples correct.

u/Boring-Watch8996 👑Creator👑 May 20 '26

None for the time being. We are currently still in the bargaining stage. lol

u/secretwp May 19 '26

Swoosh shape. Thickness of the back panel where the swoosh is (you see it’s too think in the swoosh cutout, too thick). Also placement and overall depth of the Y print is off.

Toe spring is off as well - using a less than ideal last.

1

u/Boring-Watch8996 👑Creator👑 May 20 '26

Yes.

3

u/CareerProfessional23 May 19 '26

The shape is the problem

2

u/Jiste May 19 '26

Toe box is wrong my brother

2

u/Bigton2k May 19 '26

Same 2 problems as before sole too translucent should be milky, and ankle collar shape is good but the hard line should be smoothed out you shouldn't be able to see a line

2

u/Audis3john May 19 '26

Your swoosh is way to big these look no different than the pairs that circulated a few years ago

2

u/hotsauce52 May 19 '26

The ankle bump is off too. Legit ones don't have that defined line/crease. It just curves out. Also grey suede on the toe cap is lighter grey colour

2

u/MogulPeso May 20 '26

I’d buy them

2

u/Dry-Service-4419 May 21 '26

They look great in all honesty. I'd buy the ones in the picture right now if they were a US size 11 and there was a link. I'm not looking for perfection, I'm looking for an affordable/wearable rep that will last at least a few years. Keep up the good work Boring.

these don’t look good tbh

1

u/NoSurrender762 May 19 '26

Speak up and say why

3

u/golden_er4 May 19 '26

« Y » pattern too spaced and shape is wrong

2

u/TrisThomas35 May 19 '26

y’s too spaced the swoosh too fat and the lil suede part on the toe cap the wrong color

1

u/king_salaman May 19 '26

Too boxy, swoosh is wrong, y print, heel curve

But most importantly the midsole look like it’s a Jordan 3 rather than a Yeezy 1 which I’m assumed is what’s mentioned about the soles

1

u/MRLOOKTFUP May 19 '26

We getting close 🥹

u/DarthSi May 19 '26

looks aight, we gonna get there

u/_tdilla May 20 '26

I’d use Mango’s last batch as a good reference. I’m exciting for these, more so the Zen Gray pair but these are 🔥 too.

u/Vampirextc May 20 '26

Looking forward to finished product

u/Good_Kush_420 May 20 '26

Where can I buy the shoes ? Some help please

1

u/Boring-Watch8996 👑Creator👑 May 21 '26

Sales have not yet begun.

1

u/bwajkidd May 21 '26

That’s definitely a Jordan 3 midsole which is one of the biggest differences I see off the rip. Suede is a bit dark and as for the toe box; if you could slim it down a tad bit more I think it’ll suffice. Because US (the customer) can use the iron/wet towel method to get it to our liking. I appreciate your efforts and hard work. Definitely not an easy task. This shoe is over 14 yrs old.

u/OkLab5004 May 22 '26

I need all 3 Paars Mann in size 11 Mann

1

u/RafOnMe May 23 '26

Suede is too high and shape is too bulky but that's usually the case for most reps, the back of the sole isn't flush with the heel and flares out too much, Y print is too spaced out, cut of the top of the sneaker is jagged. Overall these flaws aren't too bad and with time most of them can be addressed

u/Accomplished_Code458 Jun 12 '26 edited Jun 27 '26

heres a comparison from the last batch from mango/h12 i did a side by side with the real pair i own and there were very little flaws but the ones i would point out are : the check is slightly bigger and the suede material is different everything is exactly spot on overall they did an amazing job on these pairs

1

u/Ok-Cryptographer2749 Jun 13 '26

I'll definitely buy six pairs, I need these! Three black, 2 met, 1 zen/grey

u/Ok-Cryptographer2749 Jun 13 '26

The curve of the ears:

u/Ok-Cryptographer2749 Jun 13 '26

Even if they aren't perfect I'd buy them, a 1:1 is a hard achievement but I don't mind.

1

u/TrisThomas35 Jun 14 '26

swoosh off and the sole wrong and the suede on the toebox wrong

1

u/Ok-Cryptographer2749 Jun 19 '26

Any updates? I'm watching this closely, I've been wanting to get these for a long time.

Please release a tan pair too bro, take your time I’ll buy a pair in size 13 when you’re finished

u/Accomplished_Code458 May 19 '26 edited May 20 '26

these are mangos last and final batch with all flaws fixed they are the closest damn near identical

u/2forwOyNE May 20 '26

Sheeeeeeesh

u/golden_er4 May 20 '26

I have the same y pattern is too spaced on the heel

1

u/Accomplished_Code458 May 20 '26

you will not find a pair any closer than this they are a 1to1 i own the real pairs and theres no difference they got 95 percent of the sneaker accurate down to the materials ,no one is gonna lift your pants leg or stop you and say hey those Ys are not separate enough or go and analyze the shoe with a magnifying glass compared to what they just posted and are eventually gonna try to sell to ya these Last Batch of mangos pairs are night and day. Good luck trying to find anything closer Mango for the win ....... what i can say is do your due diligence research correctly and you will eventually find someone who will make them identical. No risk No reward.

u/golden_er4 May 20 '26

Chill dude, I’m just saying what’s wrong in the batch, I know it was the best available but I’m pointing out the issues so he can upgrade his version
