Yeezy 350 V3 Alien: How to Storm Area 51 in Style

By August 16, 2019November 29th, 2022Adidas, Sneakers, Yeezy

Y’all know how the sneaker game is. Always up to date with the latest trends, fad, and even news. But for a Yeezy 350 V3 “Alien” to surface around the time the “Storm Area 51” event is trending, that’s a bit too much. But does that mean the new Yeezys are dropping on the same day of the raid? We shall find out soon!

Storming Area 51

Area 51

We’ve all heard stories about the mysterious sci-fi inspired military base Area 51. Stories on how it’s home for top-secret experiments, ground-breaking technology, and even aliens. So back in June, Matty Roberts created a Facebook event with the purpose of raiding Area 51 to find out what the US government was keeping from the people. The “They Can’t Stop Us All” event got around 2 million RSVPs’ and was scheduled on September 20th.

But after the intervention of the FBI, Facebook had to delete the event before putting it back up. And now, the raid turned into an alien-themed 4-day music fest dubbed “Alien Stock.”

Coincidence? We Think Not?

Right around the time, the Area 51 event was taking over the internet, Kanye appears in a brand new Yeezy silhouette. What we now know as the Yeezy 350 V3 Alien made its first public appearance on Ye’s feet on July 8th. And though the sneakers looked very familiar and usual, the timing was not.

Is that a new marketing strategy by Adidas and Yeezy? Are we gonna get a new colorway or silhouette every time an event goes viral?
Well, maybe! But it’s not like Yeezys are ever short on hype or desirability. They’d still sell out even if the stock number reaches a million. But it’s cool to see Yeezys getting on board with what’s really happening around the world.

Yeezy 350 V3 Features

As you impatiently wait for the first-ever Yeezy 350 V3 to drop, here’s what to expect in terms of features and pricing.
The all-new V3 line will kick-off with a rather simple colorway. Featuring a mixture of grey and white that cover the whole shoe. The uppers feature sock-like construction, a little higher than that in the V2s. And the sole, which has to be the biggest change, seem to be much sleeker with a smooth profile compared to the ribbing on the sole of the V2.

And in case you were so worried about the Boost material featured in the Yeezy 700 and 350 v2, well, it’s staying. As per the announcing tweet, the upcoming Yeezys will keep the BOOST.
In terms of pricing, the Yeezy 350 V3 Alien will see an increase of $10 in retail price. So, a brand new pair of Yeezy 350 v3 will cost you $230 from now on. But that’s cheap considering it’s coming from outer space.

Update [12/03/2019]

On the , the Yeezy Boost 350 V3 Alien dropped on Yeezy Supply in very limited quantities. And we mean VERY. It didn’t even drop on Adidas’ official page. It did pretty well on the release, and it’s going for an average of on resale platforms! Not so bad. The release on adidas.com was delayed to drop on , 2019 for 230$ with a wider international release! So, get ready to cop!

Update  [10/26/2019] Yeezy 350 V3 Yeezy Boost 380

On October 8th, the Yeezy Mafia revealed yet another major update regarding the third version of the Yeezy 350. The sneakers’ name changed from Yeezy 350 V3 to Yeezy 380. And what’s more worthy of note is that we now have official, closer images os the 380s. Which will release at first in a Cream/ Yellow version and a Black one. Unless there are new colorways

Yeezy 350 v3 Resale

Predicting Yeezy Resale prices has always been a risky business. These prices are especially fragile and highly influenced by many factors. But looking back at the latest Yeezy releases, it seems that stock numbers have a lot to do with lighting up or killing the hype of any sneakers. So as long as Adidas and Kanye keep these limited, they’re gonna be coppable, and using a sneaker bot to cop them will be out of the question.
