Asides earning a fortune from rapping and producing music, American rapper Kanye West has been the mastermind of one of the world’s most successful sneaker and streetwear fashion lines, the Yeezy.
The Adidas Yeezy is iconic for a whole host of reasons. Throughout the last six years, there’s been many incredible shoes, with many yet to come. However, sometimes Kanye comes out with designs that are simply way too strange looking for people to like.
Kanye’s collaboration with Adidas and Gap is worth millions of hundreds of dollars and these numbers have come in little over 5 years. Of course, Kanye’s fashion invention kicked off with an internship at Fendi alongside Off-White founder Virgil Abloh in 2009 before launching his eponymous brand in 2015.
Usually, Kanye’s models are met with disbelief, and then eventually, people accept them as unique and fashionable. A great example of this is the Adidas Yeezy Foam Runner, which was roasted upon release, but now, it is heralded as one of the more forward-thinking shoes to come from the Yeezy factory.
Today, Yeezy Mafia took to Instagram with a post, which debuted Kanye’s latest creation, the Adidas Yeezy NSLTD BT. This is meant to be some sort of utility boot that seems as though it was made for the Michelin Man.
There is a lot of material stacked around the upper as the entire silhouette goes up towards the shins. From there, we have a weak yet chunky midsole, wrapped in what has been described as a “Khaki” colorway.
Just like we acknowledged about the rate of acceptance of Ye’s designs when they initially drop, fans immediately began roasting the shoe in the comments section of the post.
Some said this was Kanye’s worst shoe yet, while others simply couldn’t imagine a world in which someone would want to wear these. Nonetheless, Ye continues to inspire some polarizing opinions with his shoes.
Check out what fans think in the comments section of the Instagram post by Yeezy Mafia below.
Would you shell out more than $250 (>N102,000) to cop the new Adidas Yeezy NSLTD BT? Would you even consider wearing them?
