The Drop
The Yeezy 700 V3 Azael dropped as one of the cleanest iterations in Kanye's experimental V3 lineup, pushing the model's cage-heavy, glow-in-the-dark DNA to its minimalist peak. This monochrome colorway strips back the tech-runner aesthetic to ghostly white RPU overlays and mesh, with that signature neon skeleton glow under UV. It's the 700 V3 you wear when you want zero competition from your shoes—pure form, no distraction.
Resell Verdict
Azaels hover around $217 on average, with asks swinging wildly from $115 to $720 depending on size and condition. The hype has cooled considerably from release, settling into stable mid-tier Yeezy territory—nicht mehr moon-bound, but solid for patient flippers targeting specific sizes (big feet = better margins). Weekly order volume of 49 suggests consistent, if unspectacular, turnover. Flip potential is moderate; buy under retail equivalents, sell to completionists.
Fake Tells
- ▸RPU cage edges: Fakes often have sloppy, uneven molding where the translucent frame meets mesh
- ▸Glow intensity: Reps rarely match the vivid green UV glow—charge both pairs under light to compare
- ▸Heel pull-tab stitching: Should be tight, parallel lines; bootlegs get loose or crooked fast
Who It's For
Collectors chasing the full V3 arc and minimalists who want Yeezy weirdness without loud colorblocking. Best deployed on monochrome fits or as the statement piece against all-black everything.
Sizing & Fit
Runs snug—commonly reported as half-size up from TTS for wider feet, especially with the rigid cage structure.
