Title! Looking for pics of a “blue pearl” or “silver pearl” chief.
This thread says they exist but the biggest colorway archive of CLYW colorways doesn’t even have any “pearl” colorways in its archive.
I’d love to say the name of the archive but it’s the archive of yye’s competitor. Just google “CLYW Color Guide” and look for the website hosted by a certain japanese competitor.
So if you have pics, let me know! I’m thinking this thread is mixing up the original release colorways of the Chief, but you can’t ever be sure.
It’s kind of equally depressing and impressive how incredibly poorly documented/preserved yoyo history is lmfao
It’s scary how much of it is only online and is practically one missed domain payment away from being lost forever. And a good chunk of it is on this website now… not to derail Gingie’s thread or anything but I never ever want to see what happened to YYN happen here or anywhere else. Someone’s gotta talk to JD and see if he can get that up and running again, cause you never know… there’s prolly pics on there.
I’m pretty sure back then CLYW was using fancy names for normal solid colours but nobody would actually use them so they were forgotten almost immediately.
I may be incorrect, but I believe these are examples of the blue pearl colorway. I couldn’t find any for the silver pearl. It looks like these dropped along side another called musket which was a glossy black.
Note that it almost looks like the chesterman beach colorway, minus some of the white though. Blue pearl is just two shades of blue, so I think they considered it a ‘solid.’
This might be blue pearl but it’s hard to tell. Its really close to Canadian Tuxedo which released with Ash Berry, Strawberries and Cream, and Black w/ Silver Speckle
