An Exclusive On Foot Look At The "Utility Black" YEEZY 500 Desert Rat

The "Utility Black"; YEEZY 500 Desert Rat released on the 7th July, a futuristic sneaker that has everyone divided. Being first released in "Blush” in April and in a “Super Moon Yellow” hue early in June, they are now here in a staple colour. While Saturday was a sell out for the Utility Black 500's, you can still cop some on eBay here.

The sneaker is made up of premium suede and lightweight mesh panelling and the contrasting materials definitely add to the abstract sneaker. The adiPRENE technology featured in these sneakers gives an incredible comfort level in the space of minutes… These premium sneakers aren't just here to look good. The soft upper of this sneaker also hugs the curves of your feet, with no pressure points or discomfort to be felt. Another feature, though it's hidden without a flash, is a reflective strip that traces around the sneaker's seams.

The robust appearance of the YEEZY 500 Utility Black is a great indicator for the longevity of these sneakers. With a colourway like this releasing in the height of Summer, some may be concerned that it isn't the right time or place for a darker hue. But rest assured that these sneakers, with the right care, will be seeing you through the Summer months and into the darker days of Winter with no problem.

Set to be releasing in "Ultravoilet"; and "Salt"; colourways later on this year, it looks like there will be a few more chances to cop some YEEZY sneakers if you missed out this time.
