Although we've yet to hear an official announcement from adidas, all signs point to this Saturday as the release date for the highly anticipated "Black" Yeezy 750 Boosts. Ahead of the launch, it looks like resellers are already starting to stock up inventory.

The above image, which has been circulating on Twitter this morning, shows someone with a massive stock of "Black" 750 Boosts — 28 pairs in total, to be exact. After a bit of digging, we can confirm that the pairs pictured belong to Instagram user @leonyangwth.

Due to the quality of the image, it's impossible to say for sure if these 750s are authentic, but it's not quite as farfetched as one might think. Early pairs have been floating around since last month, and compared to previous adidas Yeezy Boost releases, there are an abundance of eBay sellers who already have the sneakers in hand.

This can only mean one of two things: either adidas has produced considerably more units of these 750s than previous Yeezys, or resellers have already outsmarted the retailers by scooping up multiple pairs via "backdoor" sales and other frowned-upon methods ahead of the official release.

Either way, we'll find out come Saturday, December 19. Retail for the "Black" Yeezy 750 Boosts is $350.
