The Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Beluga is releasing for the nth time and it shouldn’t be a surprise. It’s a model that had a lot of success so it is fitting for Adidas to keep recycling it again. The sneaker features primeknit uppers for a snug and comfortable fit, plus heel pull for easy on/off. The boost™ cushioning provides extra support and comfort, while the rubber outsole ensures durability and stability. In this post we’ll attempt to come up with a possible number of pairs made and will also discuss the shoe’s resale value. First let’s get a count of the stockists allocated an inventory.

Now let’s talk about stock numbers. The first thing we need to do is set up our assumptions, and we’ll go with the following
Assumptions
- Adidas US and Europe will receive 75% of the inventory
- Footlocker & Champs will receive 10% and Dicks receive 5%
- And the other retailers will split the remaining 10%
When I conduced my research, I came up with a total of 81 Footlocker stores allocated, 37 Champs stores and 35 Dicks stores were given an inventory. So we’ll add the following assumptions
- Each Footlocker will be allocated 120 pairs
- Each Champs 60 pairs
- Dicks 60 pairs
- FTL and Champs online will receive 1/2 of the inventory the stores receive
- Dicks online will also receive 1/2 of the inventory the stores are getting
Now let’s use this data to compute our stock numbers
Yeezy 350 V2 Beluga Stock Numbers
FTL stores= 81 x 120 pairs =9720 pairs
Champs Stores= 37 x 60 pairs=2220 pairs
Dicks Stores= 35 x 60 pairs=2100 pairs
FTL online= 9720/ 2=4860 pairs
Champs online=2220/2=1110 pairs
Dicks online= 2100/2= 1050 pairs
Total from FTL+ Champs+ Dicks= (9720+2220+2100+4860+1110+1050)= 21,060 let say 25,000 pairs because of possible errors in my assumptions
Since we assumed that this number represented about 15% of the total inventory, then
Total inventory= (25,000 ) x 6 + (25,000 /3)x2= 166,667 pairs let say 170,000 pairs.
I had a conversation with a good friend who postulated that 1,000, 000 pairs were made. My numbers don’t agree with that but I wanted to put it out there. In conclusion, I would say that the total number of pairs made will be somewhere between 150,000 and 300,000
Now let’s see how the shoe is performing on third party marketplaces
Resale Value
The chart above gives you a breakdown of the average resale value by day since December the 12th. Based on the records above, the shoe has gained about $8.7 in value every day. The equation that best captures the data is:
Resale= $8.7 (t) + $346. According to this equation, the shoe will have an average sale price of $398.2 by December the 18th. Realistically, I think it will be somewhere between $320 and $350. Let’s computer our five number summary for some additional insights.
Minimum: 290
Quartile Q1: 319.25
Median: 351
Quartile Q3: 374.5
Maximum: 446
25% of the shoes sold for values from $290 to $319.25, 50% sold for prices between $319.25 and $374.5 while another 25% sold for values from $374.5 to $446. The average selling price will probably be $350+ and certain sizes will definitely sell for more. I have collected some more data via eBay as well, here are the findings
The sell through rate is about 32%, which is good ad the current average sale price is $373.
Here is a breakdown of the sizes with the highest margins.
