YZY PODS QUALITY AFTER 2 MONTHS AND IDEAS ON QUALITY INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENT

[@importals]

These are all good points, I hope Yzy releases a v2. I have a lot of faith in the pods for the future.

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Thanks! Man, I hope so. These are really awesome, just a lot of reputation riding on this.

[@732Wavy]

I just got mine, just based on the quality and material I'm only wearing them in the house. I couldn't imagine walking on gravel, dirt, and nasty public floors. I have carpet floors so they should last me a while

[@joshmannbroadcast]

They are surprisingly resilient on dirt and gravel. I haven’t had them knee deep in sand or anything just treading carefully. And yeah, nasty floors and anything liquid are their enemy! 🤣

[@justing2290]

I would have used a rubber glue/adhesive. I feel like the corrisve nature of the super glue once its dries is also causing problems with the rubber outsole and the knit material. Have you considered sowing them? My thought plan for when my pods come in and if they start to peel was the rubber glue first but if that doesn't work sowing them inside out. I have a strong feeling that the sowing would look stupid and ruin it but it was a thought.

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Ah yeah, the rubber may have looked cleaner for sure. I didn't really know it existed haha. The sowing sounds really cool. Probably not the easiest thing to do but would probably look really good if it's just done right.

[@blackbox_kt]

Come here for a before/after video, ending up hearing the valid criticism about the shoes with how to improve the shoes design in the practicality standpoint. Great vid man.

[@joshmannbroadcast]

LOL thank you so much haha. It's all just real feelings and concerns. I wanna actually give y'all 2 months worth of value out of it, not just "OMG MY PODS RIPPED" and no context like a lot of reactionary content. I could have made that video day 1 when they actually first ripped but that wouldn't have improved anything or helped anyone understand how these could still be a valuable companion in daily life while addressing quality overtime and still supporting Ye and the brand.

[@Taglessmarketing]

Ye should definitely hire you

[@joshmannbroadcast]

I'll stick to product management in apheresis devices haha! That sounds like a ride for sure though!

[@DoronBond]

Boiiii when I saw that glue in the thumbnail I was like uh oh 😂

[@joshmannbroadcast]

LOL Right!? I really just think that right side was not the best construction. The left one is still very very nice all around.

[@DoronBond]

@@joshmannbroadcast hey you like me gotta do what you gotta do LOL

[@444clips]

Kanye needs to find a shoe brand lol, i love ye but yeezy pods aint it. The vultures merch tuff tho

[@joshmannbroadcast]

I'm waiting for some more black sweats and hoodies!

[@queenbabyfaced]

Love mine but there is one problem. The fabric is snagged. On both pods. Wore them to physical therapy and then on a train to nyc hung for 2 days and back home. The fabric is ruined.

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Snagged where? Like in the sole somewhere?

[@AngeloVilar]

Anybody get their $20 pair yet? Feels like they're only caught up to the batch that paid the original price. I cancelled my pre-order once I saw the price drop but got the news after they were refunding the difference. Oh well...

[@joshmannbroadcast]

I got my refund 8 days after I sent that request the day of the announcement. On the same boat as far as my feb 11 order of the size 2 Pods.

[@Grantcard]

Still no, but they send it anyway so I forget about it until it arrive

[@NuffSaidBro]

I haven't gotten any of my merch or pods yet and it will be 6 weeks this Saturday. I'll remain patient for now because I know when Ye made the announcement that everything will be $20 I'm pretty sure he definitely wasn't thinking about order fulfillment timings.

[@joshmannbroadcast]

That's the way to do it. It'll be a pleasant surprise one day for sure! @@Grantcard

[@AngeloVilar]

@@joshmannbroadcast Yup! set it and forget it.

[@Mr.TitanBubble]

Its also the right one for me. I'm kinda scared to use normal super glue. I used it on some fake Balenciaga and they literally desolved 💀

[@joshmannbroadcast]

I've heard some people say in the first video to use a plastic specific bonding agent. I wouldn't know the best ones out there haha. The only thing about what I used is the clear residue it leaves. It also hardens a lot, not a very flexible set. So, if I walk without socks on, I can feel the hardened super glue in cases.

[@yoosh-matic9016]

I am really looking forward to get my pair, been waitin for about 6 weeks now😭

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Hopefully soon! I have size 2 that should've shipped last week. They have some fixing to do overthere for sure.

[@Django-o3u]

Same for me…. Almost 6 weeks and nothing

[@Veightk]

lol bro I’ve been waiting so long ima keep em DS soon they arrive 😂

[@Izzytheaesthetic]

When I was watching a review from WhyDavis he got clothes in and a packing slip that said if you ordered pods they’ll take 4-8 weeks. Idk why it’s on a slip that’s predicated on you ordering and receiving other products as opposed to a blast email to all customers or even just an updated time on the website, but hey

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Interesting! My original pre-order pair (this pair) and my vultures pant delivered in February had that same message but claiming 2-4 weeks for the Pods specifically instead of that 4-8.

[@xyes4133]

Your voice is really nice

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Thanks 🙏 trying to have less stutter/ums/pauses but it’s hard while your doing one takes haha. Think it’s been getting better.

[@bayareahustles]

lol nah. Donate the old pair and buy 3 more maybe 6.

[@joshmannbroadcast]

The next pair I buy needs to be the legging version featured in some YZY promotions. Those would look amazing with shorts!

[@mush9880]

great review i love kanye

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Thank you! He’s throwing darts at the board something’s gonna land for real soon!

[@UnrealOcean]

great video and suggestions

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Thank you so much!

[@Grantcard]

Love idea about subscription

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Imagine if we could make a colorway selection every month too! Or the regular vs. more rugged version Steven Smith talked about.

[@SuperToogreat]

Crazy to think he tried charging 200 lol

[@joshmannbroadcast]

I think it was absorb the cost of the superbowl commercial at first and probably offset the costs of getting all the new employees/factories/molds etc. started.

[@Jaydinhelloyes]

My pair around the outer part I’m noticing some separation . Wish these were like leguanos, they use heat instead of glue to get the sole onto the bottom.

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Sorry to hear! Isn't that how they bond the foam to the interior with 450s?

[@jaredschneider5614]

They shipped my pants but not my pods or box tee🥲

[@joshmannbroadcast]

And it’s like, I don’t mind waiting but it would be nice to have some form of official announcement from YZY or Ye about the progress of the orders. It’s not like they’re publicly traded. Think fans would appreciate it more than anything.

[@swing_swing]

do you remember which state your order shipped from?

[@joshmannbroadcast]

LA zip code 90001

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Would be cool to see a Italian city haha

[@arielalvarez5543]

Just goes to show that Adidas needs Ye and Ye needs Adidas 🤷🏽cause these stockings just ain’t it 🤦🏽🤦🏽

[@joshmannbroadcast]

He was in talks with the CEO but I think that bridge is burned ... again ... for now.

[@someblackguy100]

Have you ever thought about wearing arch?And ankle support socks with it

[@joshmannbroadcast]

Not at all. There’s a platform that bulges upward between the platforms that act as an arch support. I have issues in my right foot with tendons and these are the one shoe without a crazy ton of cushion or (obvious) arch support I’ve never had that issue with. Really blew my mind!
