The adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 CMPCT ¡°Slate Red¡± is a monochromatic red colorway of Kanye West¡¯s casual shoe in a modified, streamlined design. A February 2022 release, the ¡°Slate Red¡± Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Compact succeeds the shoe¡¯s launch colorway, the ¡°Slate Blue.¡± Like its predecessor, the ¡°Slate Red¡± appears in a design that utilizes similar components of the original 350 V2 but with a few alterations. The Primeknit upper appears in a similar style to the adidas Yeezy Basketball Knit shoe and features shades of eye-grabbing red. The 350 V2 CMPCT is equipped with a traditional lacing setup in spite of its sock-like appearance, albeit designed in a ¡°quick-lace¡± style that is a departure from the look of the original 350 V2. Like that shoe, however, the Compact is complete with a full-length Boost cushioned midsole. The ¡°Slate Red¡± joins the adidas Yeezy Foam Runner ¡°Vermillion¡± in reigniting West¡¯s penchant for all-red-everything sneakers, a trend the Chicago native helped popularize with his Nike Air Yeezy 2 ¡°Red October¡± in the early 2010s.
