FAQs
Are Yeezy 450s true to size?
Due to the sock-like construction, the Yeezy 450 often has a snug fit. It is generally recommended to consider a half-size up if you prefer a less restrictive feel.
Is this shoe made of real leather?
Yes, the product incorporates leather elements in its construction alongside the high-performance knit material.
Where is the Yeezy 450 manufactured?
The Yeezy 450 is notable for being the first Yeezy model to be manufactured in Germany.
What is the primary difference between the Black and Dark Slate colorways?
The Dark Slate colorway is distinguished by its use of brown threading within the black knit base, creating a subtle color depth not present in solid black versions.
Can these be used for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than performance running or heavy athletic training.
Troubleshooting
Knit upper appears dusty or dirty
Gently brush the knit material with a soft dry brush to remove loose debris before using a damp cloth.
Foam midsole shows scuff marks
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft cloth to gently buff out surface scuffs from the EVA foam.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Yeezy 450 features a specialized sock-like fit, ensure you select your correct size during setup to avoid pressure points. For maintenance, clean the knit upper with a soft-bristled brush and mild detergent, avoiding harsh scrubbing that might fray the threading. The EVA midsole can be wiped down with a damp cloth to remove surface dust. Always allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources, which could potentially warp the foam midsole material. Compatibility-wise, these trainers pair best with tapered trousers or slim-fit denim to allow the unique silhouette of the foam midsole to remain visible.
